If\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thelandryhat.com\/jerry-jones-plans-cowboys-head-coach-slap-in-face-mike-mccarthy-01jgyktra8p3\" data-uw-rm-brl=\"PR\" data-uw-original-href=\"https:\/\/thelandryhat.com\/jerry-jones-plans-cowboys-head-coach-slap-in-face-mike-mccarthy-01jgyktra8p3\">t<\/a>he Mike McCarthy saga\u00a0is any indication for how this offseason will unfold, Cowboys fans might be driven to pure and unadulterated apathy by July.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">If not for the Chicago Bears, who put in a request to speak with McCarthy about their head coach vacancy, we might still be in the dark regarding McCarthy&#8217;s future. It took Jerry Jones some 24 hours to get back to the NFC North bottom-feeders.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">After previously giving McCarthy jurisdiction to speak with any team, Jones denied the Bears&#8217; request. Everyone now thinks McCarthy will be back, though that certainly isn&#8217;t official by just denying Chicago permission.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">It could be a crude way of keeping McCarthy on ice for another week. Anything and everything is possible with this front office, but it stands to reason that both sides are trying to negotiate a new contract.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">If you&#8217;re in denial about McCarthy&#8217;s potential return, the New York Jets may have revealed the 61-year-old&#8217;s fate with Dallas.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"scroll-mt-24 my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">The Jets may have revealed Mike McCarthy&#8217;s fate with the Cowboys<\/h2>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">The Jets have assembled a monstrous list of head coach candidates. If you think of someone, odds are New York has requested an interview. Despite that, they have not requested to speak with McCarthy,\u00a0per Dianna Russini of The Athletic.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">Your initial reaction might be to slander McCarthy. The Jets&#8217; interview list could populate a small island. It must sting for them to tell McCarthy they&#8217;re not interested, right?<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">RELATED:\u00a0Polarizing Cowboys coach may leave if Mike McCarthy stays in Dallas<\/h3>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">Well, McCarthy would actually be a great hire for New York. His ability to work with an intrusive owner like Jerry Jones means he could succeed next to Jets owner Woody Johnson, who can&#8217;t help but inject himself into prominent football decisions. Sound familiar?<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">The Jets also have a talented roster. They need an experienced coach who knows how to cultivate a winning culture. While McCarthy&#8217;s playoff record is spotty, he is the definition of a floor-raising coach. He might be the best fit for the Jets of the names that have been reported.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">New York would be crazy not to interview McCarthy.\u00a0Saints interim coach Darren Rizzi, whose only head coaching experience is at the Division-II level, is getting an interview. Rex Ryan, who hasn&#8217;t coached in the NFL in nine years, interviewed on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">The Jets have not made the playoffs in 14 years. McCarthy has a Super Bowl and made the playoffs in 12 of 18 seasons as a head coach. If that team, who is interviewing literally everyone, isn&#8217;t interviewing McCarthy, they probably know he isn&#8217;t going anywhere.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-13\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">That is the only explanation for New York snubbing McCarthy.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-14\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">Unless McCarthy and the Cowboys are unable to negotiate a contract, which is possible, this saga is going to end with McCarthy back at the helm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington Commanders v Dallas Cowboys | Sam Hodde\/GettyImages It is only the third day of the Dallas Cowboys offseason and gray hairs have already started blooming.
