You may or may not have known that Mike McCarthy has the best win-loss record in Cowboys franchise history. In any case, his 42-25 record and .627 winning percentage leads Barry Switzer (.625), Wade Phillips (.607), and even Tom Landry (.607).
And if he hadn’t started out 6-10 in 2020 (Dak Prescott was out for 11 games), his record would be even more impressive. So impressive in fact, that for the rest of this post, we’ll only look at McCarthy’s record over the last three years, in which he led the Cowboys to three straight 12-5 seasons, three playoff berths, but just a 1-3 playoff record.
