The Cowboys have a lot of important decisions to make in the next month.
The Dallas Cowboys came so close to making things kind of interesting over the last month of the NFL season. They still would have been longshots to make the playoffs, but securing that win over the Cincinnati Bengals would have kept the dream alive. A 6-7 record would have them still present on the in the hunt graphics we see each week this time of year referencing the playoffs.
Now, we slog through a month of games with no real meaning except for 2025 NFL Draft positioning. If the Cowboys lose, we win, or something like that.
Anyway, peeking ahead to the offseason, the Cowboys have a decision to make on coach Mike McCarthy. We know he’s on an expiring contract so that Jerry Jones only has to do nothing and the problem of McCarthy’s employment in Dallas is solved.
But recently, Jerry and Stephen Jones, Dak Prescott, Micah Parsons and others have made comments that reference McCarthy returning in 2025 under a new contract. Of course, this may all represent typical speech with a season still going on, players and owners may not want to diss the coach with games still on the schedule. There is the counter-theory that the way McCarthy has kept the team fighting might have swayed some opinions to give him another opportunity.
So what say you BTB? Should Mike McCarthy be given another chance? Vote on the two questions in our survey then hit the comments with your thoughts.
