Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says it’s not a sure thing that head coach Mike McCarthy leaves at the end of the season. McCarthy is in the final year of his contract and the Cowboys are one of the most disappointing teams in the NFL this season, sporting a 4-7 record.
But Jones does local radio station 105.3 The Fan that he’s considering offering McCarthy a contract extension. Not only that, but the longtime Cowboys owner sounded pretty bullish on the idea.
“I don’t think that’s crazy at all. This is a Super Bowl-winning coach. Mike McCarthy has been there and done that. He has great ideas. We got a lot of football left,” Jones said according to Jon Machota of The Athletic.
McCarthy went just 6-10 in his first season with the Cowboys n 2020. But he ripped off three consecutive 12-5 seasons from 2021-2023. The problem, however, comes in the playoffs where he has a 1-3 record in Dallas and has been blown out in the NFC divisional round two out of three seasons.
But Jones doesn’t seem to see a problem. In fact, recently gave a vote of confidence to McCarthy and his players after a 34-10 loss to the Houston Texans.
“That losing the team stuff, that’s so overblown,” Jones said via ESPN. “These guys are so, first of all, they’re natural competitors. Secondly, they’re so proud of the fact that they are professional and disappointed in maybe the way they executed the play, but that’s not anything that’s brother or first cousin to give up. … Everybody’s certainly disappointed, but that’s a big difference in not knowing that you got to put the foot in front of the other to go.”
Cowboys fans, however, aren’t as excited at the idea of McCarthy returning. A quick glance at social media shows fans discussing jumping ship for another team should Jones offer him a contract extension.
So you may want to think twice about that, Jerry.
