Rumor: Schefter Unsettled Cowboys could fire McCarthy

[Reverend Conehead]

Dumb. It isn’t going to happen.

I also get sick of rumors. I think sometimes the media makes a mountain out of a gopher hole in order to get clicks.

 

[kramskoi]

Cause media crackheads are gonna crack...Mike Fisher goes on and on about nonsense like this. The Cowboys are such an easy target for clicks, viewers and attention. Writing and talking about the Cowboys is like sex. It sells.

Speculation

yep ...when we saw " SI ", ..that was the start of shock-value National Enquire-ish " fish-bait " ... LOL

typical Fish for Rumors...... speculation, Hype up.... Wolf tickets .... shock value trash ...anything to get- gain attention,
he's just bumping his gums,.. he aint got or know any thang.

 

[The Quest for Six]

Garbage article of speculation based on nothing!

You can’t fire a coach for three consecutive 11 win seasons. No coach would come here after that. There’s no harm in losing to the 49ers who are more talented. Want to beat the 49ers? Acquire more talent. That’s on the GM.

How about don’t get blown out by Arizona and maybe you play SF in Dallas for once.

It says... some people say ..... no truth to this nor anything to substantiate it.

If Eagles lose to NY and are one and done, does that means Sirianni could et fired too. No one seems to want to talk about that.

The fans in Philly are sure begging for it. Lol

 

[Mannix]

Booger should have done the right thing and canned him after the SF playoff loss two (2) years ago....and if he should do it this season if we fail to reach the NFCCG or get totally embarrassed in the NFCCG. However.....we know what will happen....Booger will go to sleep after the loss 99% sure that Corky is gone, but will wake up and convince himself otherwise....same as it ever was in this broken organization.

Believe me, eagles fans want him fired,the are still having a breakdown over the cards loss...lol..I love it.

I realize the guy makes some in-game decisions that frustrate us all, but many coaches will do that.

How do you justify keeping Garrett as long as they did then getting rid of Mike after three 12 win seasons?

They may not win, but the FO didn’t exactly go all in to help him.

IMO he has finally overcome the Jerry obstacle as best he could with regard to getting the respect of that locker room.

If this team doesn’t win it won’t be because of something an MM replacement could clearly fix.

 

[HungryLion]

I will say this though. On Shan & RJ the other day, they brought up Josina Andersons report about a major shakeup in the NFCE thats in the works. Belt intimated that it had to do with the Cowboys because she was in Dallas this weekend.

I honestly could see Jerry fire McCarthy if we are an early out and hire Dan Quinn

Jerry would do something stupid like that.

 

[HungryLion]

I'll add this tidbit. If Dallas wins the Super Bowl, McCarthy will go to the Hall of Fame.

He would be a lock if it happens.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

This is all so stupid. Three 12-5 seasons in a row and people want the coach fired.

Do they really think our talent is that overwhelming? Should we never lose a game?

I thought I read something recently where they were working on extending MM.

 

[Cowboys22]

If that happens like in all the years past we know it’s not a coaching problem, it’s an organizational problem. You can’t have multiple coaches, and multiple teams keep doing the same things over and over.

We already know this. It has already spanned numerous coaches including Bill Parcels and the roster has been completely turned over at least three times and each had several years where they were extremely talented. It is not the coaching or the players. It is the culture in which they must operate which no combination of coaches and players can overcome. No one is ever held accountable and if you ever make even one great play, you are guaranteed to be one of the highest paid at your position when it’s time for a new deal. Motivation is money and fame, not winning because you don’t have to win to get your money or fame.

With a Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Pat Mahomes kind of QB 11/12-6/5 and making the playoffs is considered a failure because goal is championship. With Dak Prescott, Kirk Cousins, Derek Carrs of the league, the bar is lowered and 11-6 and 12-5s are celebrated with contract extensions for coaches and players.

When Broncos lost the super bowl with John Fox and Peyton Manning in 2013, they went and got Gary Kubiak because expectations are different when you have a hof QB. With middle of the pack QBs, expectations are lower. McCarthy should be safe.

 

[Playmaker3128]

Anything less than an nfc title game especially if we have the 2 seed and I wouldn’t be suprised to see MM go.

Don’t get why ppl would be so suprised either. Jerry is getting up there in age.

For the people who think we wouldn’t make a play for bellicheck I think you’re nuts. Yeah he’s won nothing without Brady but a good head coach means something in this league. Bill parcells took teams that were lesser in talent to two playoff appearances in 4 years. Coaching matters in this league. More than any other

Bingo.

If Jerry did fire Mike. It would simply be because he is scapegoating the head coach instead of accepting the blame for a roster that isn’t good enough to win a Super Bowl.

 

[BusDriver]

Shefter checked in on his weekly post engagement report and realized it’s been a garbage week for him, so queue any Cowboys speculation and fling it at the wall and watch the engagement make a comeback .. yah baby

 

[sunalsorises]

The media needs something to talk about. Does the media understand the only reason why Jerry fired Garret was because the Cowboys underachieved in 2020 and missed the playoffs. It took forever for Jerry to make the decision. Jerry even gave Garret a chance to get his job back.

Jerry didn't actually even fire Garrett. He pulled that move they did to the guy in Office Space where the company just stopped paying him.

 

[Risen Star]

Fat Mike will be here longer than Landry.
