It's been nearly three decades since the Cowboys last made the NFC championship game. They now have the longest title game drought in the conference.
The Dallas Cowboys have interviewed Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, a former quarterback and offensive coordinator in Big D, for the vacant head coaching job. Dallas is also set to interview former New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh for the position this weekend,
Unlike NFL teams that have to follow protocols to interview current NFL coaches, there is no such red tape to navigate when a franchise wants to chat with a college coach. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones could have Deion over to The Star, or a Starbucks, and that’s an interview.
Interviews of Saleh and Frazier would satisfy the NFL’s Rooney Rule, which requires NFL teams to interview at least two diverse candidates for head coaching vacancies. Jerry Jones has also reportedly talked to Colorado coach and former Cowboys star Deion Sanders.
Moore, undrafted out of Boise State, played for the Cowboys from 2015 to 2017 before transitioning into the team's quarterbacks coach in 2018. He was then given the OC responsibilities from 2019 to 2022 and was a holdover from Jason Garrett's staff to McCarthy's.
Tashard Choice and DeMarco Murray both became college RB coaches after the NFL. Now they could vie for the same staff job in Dallas.
Sports experts have argued that McCarthy's three (12-5) winning seasons may not have been a strong enough case to keep him in Dallas for a sixth season.
Three candidates will meet with top Cowboys executives in the coming days as the interview process officially kicks off.
Deion Sanders is even money to be the Dallas Cowboys next head coach, according to DraftKings' odds. Read our expert take on how the search plays out.
The Cowboys’ coaching candidates are sparking plenty of debate; Dallas adds two offensive playmakers in Dane Brugler’s latest mock draft.
Now, Allen’s Buffalo Bills will host Jackson’s Baltimore Ravens in what I would argue is statistically the greatest quarterback match-up in divisional playoff history. The greatest of what will be, after this weekend, 229 divisional playoff games in the Super Bowl era.
