I’m taking a wait & see approach with this one. He said he learned the error of his ways from the last couple years in Green Bay so I’ll trust he’ll keep his word. 9 consecutive playoff appearances, super bowl winner, went to the NFC Championship game three times. Not a resume you can sneeze at.

Would’ve preferred Urban Meyer but I don’t hate this hire at all.

I think his "errors" of his last couple years in GB are overblown and a little misdirected. Coaches just don't get significantly worse all of a sudden. I think he has admitted to his role in some of the problems but I didn't think it had as much to do with him as is portrayed. He won't have an elite QB in Dallas but he sure as Hell won't have an entitled, arrogant baby that undermines him every chance he gets either and I think he'll have a tighter locker room because of it. He is supposed to be good for QBs, If that's true it could be a great hire. If I'm wrong we'll have a few more 8-8 years I guess but I see less risk than if we were to go with one of these College guys or coordinators...maybe less upside of course too...

I'm surprised that Cowboys (read, "JJ") did not cast a wider interview net for the head coaching job.

McCarthy is a solid if not exceptional choice.

Compared to other candidates for HC he is easily the most qualified.

They should get Wade Phillips to be D coordinator now.

Seemed like to me this might have been a plan along.
Which could explain not being in a hurry after Black Monday.

Bring in Marvin Lewis to appease the Rooney rule & then go hire the HC Jerry had targeted.

I'm surprised Harbaugh was not in the mix. He's done nothing at Michgan but lose to Ohio State by blowouts and lose bowl games.
Harbaugh hasn't shown any interest in getting back into the NFL.

Why? The Rams defense wasn't that good in 2019.

I was mostly kidding. It would just be funny if he came back as soon as the guy that took his job got canned. Seems like usually does get a lot out of his defenses his first year though.

Unpopular opinion:

Mike McCarthy is Jason Garrett with a Super Bowl ring.
