OXNARD, Calif. -- For a number of reasons, coach Mike McCarthy can’t wait for Saturday.
Yes, he will get to see his 2023 Dallas Cowboys for the first time in game action against the Jacksonville Jaguars (5 p.m. ET). Well, at least some of them -- maybe not any of his regulars. Yes, he will be back home, even if it's for a quick stop and a preseason game.
Mostly, however, it will be because he is back in his comfort zone, calling plays for the first time since 2018.
McCarthy last called a play in a game on Dec.
