I reiterate what I have said since the day he was hired. Mike McCarthy was the worst head coach hire Jerry has made since Dave Campo. In actuality it’s worse. Campo had no talent.
Jerry has turned a storied franchise into a joke.
But……Texas Rangers are World Champions

Biggest play of the game… Mike McCarthy dials up a play to your rookie TE who’s been shaky all season. Not Lamb, not Cooks, not Ferguson… McCarthy called it to Schoonmaker #Cowboys

Everyone is coming for Mike McCarthy as a terrible coach and playcaller when his offense outgained the Eagles by 100+

Is anyone talking about a defense that gave up 28 points and laid a goose egg in the takeaway column against the guy with the 2nd most TOs this year?

The Cowboys have subjected me to 14 years of Jason Garrett and Mike McCarthy. This is my level-headed, data-driven reaction to their nonsense. https://t.co/36kmSkNRQl

The Eagles did everything in their power to self-destruct. But no one out self-destructs the Dallas Cowboys.

Give Dak Prescott his damn respect ! In the last three games 950 passing yards, 9 touchdowns and 1 interception. That’s my QB1 #DallasCowboys

Cowboys lost a good ass game… the bad prt about it is the losers in national media gonna have a field day and pint a picture like it wasn’t a close game between two top NFC teams

The Cowboys had 1st and goal from the 6 yard line with 27 seconds left. They went:

False start
Sack
Incompletion
Delay of game
Completion short of goal line

The better team did not win that game

That’s crazy
