And a new rumor points to the roster getting what it wants.<\/p>\n<p>After a trio of 12-win seasons and being a Super Bowl contender, the Cowboys are having a disappointing 2024 campaign. Heading into their Week 17 matchup against rivals the Philadelphia Eagles they own a 7-8 record and are on the verge of seeing their streak of winning seasons end this year.<\/p>\n<p>However, things could be much worse. After another loss in Week 9, they were 3-5 and had just lost starting quarterback Dak Prescott for the rest of the season. Things looked bleak and an awful tailspin to end the year seemed possible. But, head coach Mike McCarthy had no intention of tanking for a better draft pick with his job on the line.<\/p>\n<p>There was no better sign of that than on Sunday night football when Dallas scored a huge upset win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. A team that is fighting for a playoff spot. His players have not given up on him and now they head into Sunday afternoon\u2019s game having won four of their last five.<\/p>\n<p>It has completely changed the narrative about McCarthy from a month ago and it seems like he might soon finally get what he has been looking for all year.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mike McCarthy record (Dallas Cowboys):\u00a0<\/strong>49-33<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"h-mike-mccarthy-expected-to-soon-get-extension-from-dallas-cowboys\">Mike McCarthy expected to soon get extension from Dallas Cowboys?<\/h2>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/NFL-Cincinnati-Bengals-at-Dallas-Cowboys-24952803.jpg?w=788\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 3710px) 100vw, 3710px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/NFL-Cincinnati-Bengals-at-Dallas-Cowboys-24952803.jpg?resize=428,286 428w, https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/NFL-Cincinnati-Bengals-at-Dallas-Cowboys-24952803.jpg?resize=788,526 788w, https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/NFL-Cincinnati-Bengals-at-Dallas-Cowboys-24952803.jpg?resize=196,131 196w, https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/NFL-Cincinnati-Bengals-at-Dallas-Cowboys-24952803.jpg?resize=465,310 465w\" alt=\"New Dallas Cowboys rumor reveals major effect surprise Week 16 win over Buccaneers had on Mike McCarthy's future\" width=\"3710\" height=\"2475\" \/><figcaption>Credit: Tim Heitman-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cMany around the league believe McCarthy is going to get a new contract from Jerry Jones,\u201d The Athletic NFL insider Dianna Russini reported on Monday. \u201cAnd Jones, speaking to reporters after last night\u2019s win, provided fuel for that thinking with quotes like this.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2018Proud of those guys, they wouldn\u2019t give it up out there.
