Cowboys Rumors: Mike McCarthy Could Be Fired with Disappointing Playoff Performance

Mike McCarthy led the Dallas Cowboys to a 12-5 record and the NFC East crown in just his second season with the team, but he reportedly could be coaching for his job during Sunday's playoff game against the San Francisco 49ers.

Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reported Cowboys owner Jerry Jones "may consider a coaching change" if the team doesn't find success in the playoffs.

That is especially the case since offensive coordinator Kellen Moore and defensive coordinator Dan Quinn are generating plenty of interest with multiple head coaching vacancies around the league and may be on the way out if McCarthy stays.
