BREAKING: Mike McCarthy to officially return to Dallas Cowboys for fifth season despite playoff loss

It’s official now. The Dallas Cowboys will see Mike McCarthy back in action.

Following a scoop from The Dallas Morning News on Tuesday night that made it appear extremely plausible, ESPN broke the

news on Wednesday night. McCarthy will formally begin his fifth year in Dallas.

On the one hand, this seems like a reasonable move considering McCarthy has been in charge of a Cowboys club that has made significant progress in the last few years.

Over the past three seasons, the Cowboys have won 12 games, qualified for the playoffs each time, and won two NFC East crowns.

McCarthy, on the other hand, has only made it to the Divisional Round of the playoffs once, and he lost that match.

Needless to mention, he also just oversaw the team’s spectacular collapse in the Wild Card Round against his old team, the Green Bay Packers.

Though it appeared that the Cowboys’ playoff defeat might have been sufficient to prompt a change, they won’t be doing so.

For what it is worth, as of now McCarthy is entering the final year of his contract with the Cowboys. Giving him an extension

would seem questionable, so perhaps Dallas will have him go at it while trying to prove himself the way that they let Jason

Garrett do so in 2019 in the final year of his own contract.
