The Dallas Cowboys are in the midst of a disappointing season, sitting at 4-7 in the NFC East with starting quarterback Dak Prescott out for the season due to a torn hamstring that required surgery.<\/p>\n
Due to another year destined to fall short of the lofty expectations in Dallas, most assumed that head coach Mike McCarthy was on the hot seat. It was a bit of a surprise that the Cowboys chose to keep McCarthy as the franchise’s coach this season, and circumstances have led to the franchise posting a season to-date that is far short of what they hoped for.<\/p>\n
But team owner Jerry Jones apparently is feeling pretty, pretty good<\/em> about the Cowboys’ road upset victory over the Washington Commanders on Sunday. In fact, Jones did not rule out a potential contract extension for his embattled head coach in his weekly radio appearance on 105.3 The Fan<\/em> on Tuesday.<\/p>\n “I don’t think that’s crazy at all,” Jones said of a potential contract extension for McCarthy. “This is a Super Bowl-winning coach. Mike McCarthy has been there and done that. He has great ideas. We got a lot of football left.”<\/p>\n Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on @1053thefan<\/a> said he's not ruling out a contract extension for head coach Mike McCarthy.<\/p>\n "I don't think that's crazy at all.
