I am not a MM fan by any means, but happy he escaped the asylum. Jerry gave him a ****** roster to begin the year; then praises MM for keeping the team together through injury and adversity; THEN denies other teams seeking HC interviews with MM, only to let him go a few days later and spin it to make it seem that the terms of a contract could not be mutually agreed upon.
I think MM decided to explore options elsewhere, especially in light of some interest from other teams (and maybe why he got a new agent); and In true incompetent GM fashion, Jerry had no contingency plan in the event MM left…Jerry is delusional in his thinking that coaches will jump at the chance to coach the Cowboys…so he will bring in the same retread and/or coaches out of the game for years who will be thankful for jobs and thus acquiesce to Jerry’s whims.
