Guess Jerry will give M3 another 2-3 years.

Andy Reid would like a word methinks.

Agree he’s very good and did a lot with very talented teams. Is he Andy Reid the legend if Mahomes is a bust and Alex Smith is the starter still? Shoot IDK

Coaches, GMs, and QBs each get too much credit when things go well and too much blame when they don't.

He also got there with McNabb until Donovan puked midfield. Oh and he has a ring from assistant coaching with the Packers.

Those Eagles teams were really good. McNabb was a very good player for a few years there.

The Dallas Cowboys and Mike McCarthy are setting the chessboard.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and McCarthy remain open to moving forward together, and the sides are expected to open talks Friday on a new contract to keep him in Dallas, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported, per sources informed of the situation.

The talks come after several days of discussions about the 2024 season and the future. McCarthy's contract expires Tuesday, giving Dallas an exclusive negotiating window before the coach becomes a true free agent.

Nearly all of the Cowboys assistant coaches are also due to have their contracts expire next week, providing some urgency for talks between Jones and McCarthy.

I can't believe Jerruh is considering keeping MM on. I thought for sure he was out.

Jerruh makes his head coach's job more difficult. But he doesn't fire them very often. Jason Garrett won 2 playoff games and lasted 9+ years.

Dak and all the other injuries saved M3.

[Joemailman]

McCarthy had 2 losing seasons where he lost his starting QB for most of the season and 3 12 win seasons. It's not that crazy that he might be able to keep his job.

Mike Vrabel to be hired as New England Head coach.

Vacancies:

New Orleans
New York Jets
New England Mike Vrabel
Dallas (M3 contract expires 1/14)
Jacksonville
Las Vegas

I think this is the truth. After last year's playoff meltdown against the Pack, Jerruh seemed mighty upset - MM had to do better than that or he was gone. Then the injuries started, and Dak's injury meant Jerruh couldn't really decide if MM was going to get the job done or not.

Turns out you were right. MM not returning to Dallas.

So coach prime wanted to talk to raiders and they said no. Wonder if he/jerruh would figure it out in Dallas.

I’d rather not see M3 as a Bear. Send him to the Jets and keep ARod for another season. Lol
