Emmitt Smith Discloses Scathing View on Cowboys’ Decision to Not Fire Mike McCarthy: Tracker’I’M NOT THE GM,’ FEB 8. Why does Mike McCarthy still lead the Dallas Cowboys as their coach? Fans may still be curious about it in light of the fact that the team’s third consecutive 12-win season ended in an early playoff exit. Additionally, Emmitt Smith, the Cowboys’ all-time leading rusher, was recently asked this question:
Smith responded, “Because I’m not the GM,” on Thursday, Andrew Perloff reported.
Put differently, Emmitt isn’t exactly supporting McCarthy’s continued employment.
Rumors of Bill Belichick’s firing in New England persisted, and in the immediate wake of the Cowboys’ humiliating loss to the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Wildcard game, it appeared as though team owner Jerry Jones would break up with McCarthy.
But after the two met, Jones thought it would be best to bring McCarthy back to Dallas for his fifth and possibly last season because his contract expires the following year.
FEB. 7 ANOTHER APPETIZER By setting up an interview with New York Jets safeties coach Marquand Manuel, the Cowboys have expanded their pool of potential defensive coordinator candidates.
Thursday is Marquand’s interview date, as first reported by ESPN.
The Cowboys have fielded candidates like Mike Zimmer, Ron Rivera, Wink Martindale, and Rex Ryan to succeed Dan Quinn, who left to take a head coaching position with the Commanders.
Along with Manuel, 44, who previously worked for Quinn as an assistant coordinator in Atlanta and was a player for Mike McCarthy’s Packers in the past, all of them have coordinator experience.
MCADOO MOVE, FEB. 6According to SI, the deal is “effectively done.” Ben McAdoo, an ex-Giants coach, has joined the Patriots and will be referred to as a “senior offensive assistant.”
MCADOO RETURNS ON FEBRUARY 4? In the wake of Belichick, the Patriots are assembling their coaching staff, and it appears that a protégé of Mike McCarthy may land a job.
