FRISCO, Texas -- Mike McCarthy did his best to downplay his return to Lambeau Field as the Dallas Cowboys' head coach.
"I really want to win the game. Is that enough?" McCarthy laughed. "It would be great."
McCarthy was the Green Bay Packers' head coach from 2006 until his dismissal with four games left in the 2018 season. He won six NFC North titles, made the playoffs nine times, went to the NFC Championship Game four times and won Super Bowl XLV. His 125 wins are the second most in franchise history.
But he had to pause briefly and tap the podium when asked what he missed the most about Green Bay.
