NFL World Roasts Cowboys for Bringing Mike McCarthy Back for Another Season

Although the Dallas Cowboys’ season ended in stunning fashion with a loss on wild-card weekend, owner Jerry Jones decided to keep coach Mike McCarthy for another season. The decision comes despite many fans and analysts believing that a loss to the No. 7 seed Green Bay Packers was enough for Dallas to make a change.

Many people believed that Jones may decide to move on, especially with coaches like Bill Belichick and Jim Harbaugh available. Once the news broke, fans and analysts throughout the NFL world expressed their shock that Jones would keep McCarthy following such an embarrassing playoff loss.

Next year will be the last year on McCarthy’s contract, and Dallas is not expected to extend him before the season begins. That means that it will be a make-or-break year for the head coach, and another disappointing finish could mean the Cowboys are looking for a new coach by this time next year.

However, much of the NFL world believes that should have been the case this year, and it showed on social media.
