Man, I’d love to see the “Dallas Cowboys x Bill Belichick” circus …
Jerry Jones, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, ultimately decided to hang it out with head coach Mike McCarthy — at least for the 2024 campaign. However, that doesn’t mean his eyes aren’t on another head coach.
When the Green Bay Packers trashed the Cowboys 48-32 in an NFC Wild Card shock-fest to eliminate them from the NFL Playoffs, questions were swirling McCarthy and Dallas regarding the future of the skipper. Yeah, they might have finished 12-5 (for the third season in a row) and won the NFC East championship. However, the expectations of winning the Super Bowl once again fell short.

Despite all the speculation, however, Jones decided to stick it out with McCarthy, at least for another year.
The move from the Cowboys happened while Belichick was a free agent — and he still is. But passing on the six-time Super Bowl champion this year doesn’t mean Belichick won’t one day be the Dallas head coach.
“I know him personally, and I like him,” said Jones at the Senior Bowl, according to Yahoo Sports. “There’s no doubt in my mind we could work together. None. None.”

One of the most intriguing things to ever happen in sports would certainly be Bill Belichick becoming the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys … could you imagine the drama?
