Pelissero w/Mike McCarthy (Hired as the Cowboys HC)

Is Mike Sherman still available? Many fans thought he would quickly land another HC gig after leaving Green Bay. Same mentality when fans thing every team will swoop up the Packers final roster cuts and practice squad guys. Every coach/front office/player with a connection to Green Bay is not a hot commodity around the league. 

if MM lands another job my guess it will be as an OC or QB coach. Can't see another team taking a chance on him based on his recent performance; starting with the NFC Championship game fiasco at Seattle.

Yeah you had to work hard to lose that one. Amazing.

Never quite saw Mike the same after that Seattle debacle. Remain skeptical that he's going to be offered a head job.

In addition to former Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy, the Cowboys are meeting with former Cincinnati coach Marvin Lewis on Saturday as well, according to multiple sources. Lewis spent last season as an adviser to Herm Edwards at Arizona State after... https://t.co/W36AhwHnM2

At least Lewis was playing to win the games.

Regarding the Seattle NFCCG. For 56 minutes Mike stitched together a fucking masterpiece. He took a playoff dog to Seattle and for 56 minutes he kicked their ass. A confluence of shitty decisions by players sunk that game. Mike kept some position coaches longer than he should have and yes that’s on him that that’s what sunk that game. Not Mike coaching in that game directly. 

If someone wants to tell me about Mikes crappy coaching job in Atlanta in the NFCCG 2 years later I’m all in. Mike was fully dead man walking in GB after that game. And he brought a trash game plan to that game.

Pretty sure that was Herm Edwards. 

Chili I blame CMIII too for taking himself out of the game and letting beyond useless AJ Hawk in. Probably thought the game was in hand.

And I concur on the Falcons game

Yes, but if you read the tweet it said he was an adviser to Herm Edwards.

GB averaged a boneheaded play each of the final 5 minutes by players in that game. From Hawk, to Burnett, to Dix, to Bostick. Clay was fucking gassed by the end of that game.

If Bostick does his job Jordy catches the onside kick and GB beats NE two weeks later.

whatever. It is what it is and GB has a home playoff game next week. Opportunities for Title 14 are always welcomed. 

If my count is right, MM has interviewed twice in Carolina and once in Cleveland, New York and Dallas without getting an offer.  That's not promising. 

It's shocking. I was thinking the same thing. 

But i don't think those teams have offered anyone else either.  Patience Grasshoppers.  

Did the NFL get rid of the Rooney rule?

Wasn’t he only supposed to be unemployed for 6 minutes?

No but he obviously didn't blow anyone away like MLF did in GB and Chilly did in Minnesota.

Not really a surprise here. Jerruh wants a HC with such low self-respect he will not question the fact this doddering old geezer will meddle and stick his fingers into every aspect of running/coaching the team. Barruh Switzer...Jason Garrett...now now, McVince...

Sources: The #Cowboys are focused on hiring former #Packers coach Mike McCarthy. They are currently in talks. A day after firing Jason Garrett, it appears they have their guy.

And another tweet MM is putting together staff..

A source informed tells me Mike McCarthy has already reached out to a potential running backs coach candidate. While no decision has been announced about where he will coach next year he is inquiring about potential staff currently

Congratulations to Pittsburgh Macho. Quite the shift from Green Bay to a meddling owner.

Jay Glazer says it is going to happen. 

@JayGlazer:  Scoopage alert: the @dallascowboys have agreed to terms with Mike McCarthy to be their new head coach. Announcement and press conference expected later this week @NFLonFOX #cowboys

Mike McCarthy tells me he just signed with the #Cowboys. Done deal. He’s their new head coach.

I guess he blew them away.  Or just blew Jerry.

You all just wait....MM is going to run roughshod over the NFC.

Doug Pedersen just became the 2nd best coach in the NFC Least. 

Holy shit,

Welp, I guess after Jerruh watched MM kick his ass in the playoffs time and again maybe he felt if you can't beat them, join them.

it will be fascinating to watch this soap opera unveil itself.

Maybe he makes Moss his assistant HC again.

The Pittsburgh 'Cho will now be wearing a dress. Jerruh is his daddy.

I’ll bet Ezekiel Elliot isn’t thrilled. 

Good thing he already got paid

Good for MM. Meddling owner or not, he'll have a pretty well-stocked  cupboard to work with. Curious to see who's calling the shots with key staff selection and if MM keeps the keys again in terms of play-calling.

And Cignetti as his QB coach.

And, oh, what's Darren Perry doing...

I've tried selling the same take over the years but you can't convince some fans.  I remember watching that game and for the length of it almost being in disbelief at what they were doing.  On the other hand, I also remember thinking, after the fake field goal, that SEA had been coming back late in games and pulling magic out of their asses that whole season. From that point on it was watching a train wreck in slow motion.

Biggest mystery is who he'll bring in as DC.  Too bad Zimmy won yesterday.

MM's RB coach will either be a former WR, TE, or LB and will have zero RB experience. 

Well this is going to be fun to watch.  

He might make "Being Zooked" meaningful again.

Jerry watched MM never say a negative thing about his boss TT even as MM knew TT was getting more and more incompetent by the day.

Jerry got the "Yes Sir, whatever you say Sir" coach he was looking for.

wonder if that richard coach will hang around, or bolt for somewhere else, not clear if the whole staff is toasted...probably.

Looks like part of his staff is already there.  Moore, offensive line coach Marc Colombo, quarterbacks coach Jon Kitna and receivers coach Sanjay Lal are under contract.

If it was MM or Marvin Lewis, that should have been an easy decision, even for Jerry Jones.  

They interviewed Marvin Lewis to meet the requirements.

Garrett told his entire staff to start looking. I can't imagine them hiring MM, a Super Bowl winning HC with a 67% win percentage, then not allowing him to pick his staff. But....of course....it is old yeller teef.
