There’s no question that Mike McCarthy is coaching for his job with the Dallas Cowboys in 2024. Set to enter the season with an expiring contract, McCarthy’s on unusually shaky ground for the coach with the best win-loss record in franchise history.
That’s right; not Tom Landry or Jimmy Johnson. Not even Barry Switzer, who swooped in and scooped up wins off of Johnson’s foundation. It’s McCarthy, who after three consecutive 12-5 regular seasons is 42-25 with a .627 winning percentage. He narrowly edges Swizter’s 40-24 record (.625%) from his four-year run with Dallas in the mid-90s.
