Mike McCarthy's Dallas future and the impact of the playoffs on that

[CCBoy]

Dak won't be MVP. He ended that conversation weeks ago.

Go to Vegas and prove your own stance...if you dare. In the NFC, he is up there as is a SF runningback as well. He has been injured a bit, although. You show a negative bias and despite him leading the team to the #2 slot despite your own doubts. You instead saying it is the SF QB?

Or even a couple of WR's? I doubt that as well...

Does Dak Prescott wing big this very weekend...come on and get out there beyond throwing around you doubts.

Rockport and I aren't in a popularity contest, and aren't cry babies investing purely in market value in the Gold Bullion Price. We're proud fans. You don't like me...oh boy, let's go!

There is zero percent chance he wins MVP. I bet NFL professionally every year. Whether or not he deserves it, it's going to Lamar with Purdy as a dark horse. Dak is out.

A couple of those coaches royally deserved it.

Barry Switzer resigned/retired. As Tom Landry should have been afforded the courtesy to do.

That was required as terms of Jerry Jones' purchase. He was allowed to pay a lower purchase price to do just that as to replacement. Terms of the contract agreement and when even surviving the expense was a tremendous gamble by Jerry.

Huh, what do you do on the leg press and what did you see the first time you moved 500 in the bench? As to professionally, ever filed for income tax on $100,000+ in a single year? I'll get back with you. I played on a team that had 8 future Pro Bowlers in college. Now, as you were saying...Purdy, with your prejudices?

Dak has the chance to lead the NFC in TD's for the season...

Dak Prescott has a chance to do so this weekend as he currently leads the league with 32. The closest quarterbacks to him are Brock Purdy (31), Jordan Love (30) and Jared Goff (28).

Road to 200 – With two touchdown passes on Sunday, Dak Prescott would reach the 200-touchdown mark, becoming only the second Cowboys quarterback to do so, joining Tony Romo (248). He would reach the milestone in 114 career games, where Romo hit the same mark in 133 career games.

With all due respect...I can make no sense of your post.

Of course not, you judge on merit of hillbilly ballads and not earned facts of truth. I'll explain without prejudice...

Jerry was allowed to purchase the Dallas Cowboys by the then outgoing ownership that replaced the original owner, Murchison. Murchison had inherited money from his father. Very rich in origins. Murchison was forced to sell the Cowboys. Ownership passed down to members who had been in the franchise. The executives made a requirement for purchase - the removal of Tom Landry a requirement for purchase. They even reduced the sales price they had been offered another potential owner, when Jerry agreed to that term of element. Jerry Jones had already decided to gamble all with the presence of Jimmy Johnson.

Jerry was losing a $1M a month just to open the doors when he and Jimmy started their journey in the NFL...that was dictated to the two.

A windy response to a simple question: Why was Landry not permitted to "resign" as head coach, rather than being forced to suffer the ignominy of being "fired"?

A massive strategic & public-relations blunder on Jerry Jones' part, from which the franchise has never fully recovered, in the hearts and minds of much of America. Certainly, we can agree that the transition could have been managed more gracefully?

 

[JoeKing]

This is year 3 of a 5-year contract. Only people that don't want McCarthy retained are giving this story life. In reality, the odds of MM not fulfilling his contract are near 0%. I believe Jerry will extend the contract by the end of year 4.

Those are the facts...referenced: America's Team (The Official History of the Dallas Cowboys) by Jeff Sullivan

Those are the facts, if truth is of no concern to YOU, then run along and continue being a jackass that doesn't invest in more than personal amusement.

That already is degraded as it comes...play with one's own hill billy ballads as YOU please...



Knock her down again Pa, knock her down again...make her tell us why, Pa, she was out late last night. Ask a hillbilly explain that to you as well.

Ever in military service, ERT, law enfocement, governmental employee?

You don't even have to waste time here...NO!

Invest in gold heavily...oh yea, brainstein....coastal breezes.

Figure that out...Looking for the 3-pack of 12 wins – When the Cowboys won last week's game, pushing their record to 11-5, it became the first time in over 30 years for the team to have at least 11 wins in three striaght seasons. Mike McCarthy became the first coach to lead the Cowboys to that, joining Jimmy Johnson, whose Cowboys went 11-5 in 1991, then 13-3 in 1992 and 12-4 in 1993. If the Cowboys can win Sunday, McCarthy would be the first to win 12 games in a regular season in franchise history.

Dallas Head Coach Mike McCarthy has stacked up wins since he arrived in Dallas in 2020, as his 41 victories with Dallas are the most among any #Cowboys head coach in his first four seasons.

https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/202...e-round?ueid=d29e426080d34b77c2be722b7ff361fb

The Dallas Cowboys are entering Week 18 of the regular season with complete control of their postseason seeding. If the Cowboys beat the Washington Commanders on Sunday, not only will they win the NFC East, but they will also secure the number two seed in the playoffs. Securing the two seed could pay off big for Dallas, as they would be guaranteed at least two home games to start the playoffs (assuming they win in the wild card round). The Cowboys currently have the longest home winning streak in the NFL at 16 games. Having the advantage of playing at AT&T stadium would put QB Dak Prescott in the best position to lead his team to victory.

While the Cowboys received help from the Arizona Cardinals in Week 17 when they defeated the Philadelphia Eagles, the Cowboys are in this position because of their consistency in the regular season. This is something fans have had the luxury of growing accustomed to under head coach Mike McCarthy. If the Cowboys win on Sunday, they will finish the season 12-5. It would be their third straight season finishing with this record. Mike McCarthy has the opportunity to improve to a 36-15 record throughout the last three regular seasons in Dallas...

If the Cowboys are unable to make it past the divisional round, can a case be made for the front office to move on from McCarthy? It is hard to argue with his consistency in the regular season; with his ability to put the Cowboys in a position to contend in January. However, fans in Dallas are growing restless as they have failed to reach the conference championship game since 1996. The only four teams who have suffered longer droughts include the Miami Dolphins (1993), Washington Commanders (1992), Detroit Lions (1992), and the Cleveland Browns (1990). If the Cowboys are unable to reach the NFC title game despite potentially holding home-field advantage in the first two rounds, McCarthy’s future in Dallas will be the subject of debate in the offseason.

It's the coordinators and talent acquisition that matter. MM has proven he's capable of fielding good offenses (just like the OCs before him) even though the OL is getting worse,,, not sure who to blame for that, probably Jerry . What does this team look like if and when they replace DQ? The defense is the reason the latest teams are slightly better than when Garrett left. Dak is incrementally getting better too though you would hope with every year passing he was getting better anyway so,,, MM gets credit? I think jerry should keep MM but the real question is whether Jerry will have to replace DQ and can he get lucky with the next DC?

Micah & Mel – Dominating from the very start is what all players want to accomplish, but only just a few are able to do so. Micah Parsons became the second defensive player in Cowboys history to make the Pro Bowl in each of his first three seasons, joining Hall of Famer cornerback Mel Renfro, who had 10 selections overall, including his first three in 1964-66.

He supports his team...which he learned fully in the wildcatting industry where life and success both depended on loyalty.

Renfro was a favorite of mine back in the day,,,, pretty much the whole defense were my favorites, lol

What the heck are you talking about?

 

[Blast From The Past]

All these winning seasons aren't going to mean anything, if we're not having any post season success

Would ya rather be losing year after suffering year instead?

Agree . Remember a win against DC means part of your 12-5 record is 4-0 against the garbage of the NFC East plus wins against the Jets & Patriots . In the other 11 games it’s 6-5 .

This isn’t Cleveland or Arizona or Carolina . Dallas should measure success in the playoffs .

post of your career!!!!!!!! Totally agree!!!

 

[75boyz]

As ElGatogrande previously posted, the impact of DQ as the DC is either a large part or the primary part as to the team's extreme defensive and thus, overall improvement, since he was hired.

Not trying to highjack the premise of the thread but I can't help but to pose the rhetorical "What if Quinn ain't hired? I mean remember, McCarthy was good with staying with Nolan and to this day I don't know McCarthys exact involvement in the Quinn hiring. Or was it a Jerry move altogether?

And to add what if we didn't luck out with the Parsons draft scenario?
Quinn and Parsons are 2 very big reasons for this team's overall success. Can't leave out Fassel's group this year with Aubrey too.

To me, this HC has been more the benefactor than the driving force behind overall team success. A coordinator driven team. Just because he holds the HC title doesn't give him team success credit in my book.

And I know my opinion may be in the minority but I still don't feel confident with him at the helm against playoff level competition.
