DALLAS Cowboys fans have again called for Mike McCarthy to be fired as head coach, despite yesterday’s win over the Washington Commanders.
The Cowboys surprisingly notched a 34-26 road win at Northwest Stadium.

McCarthy’s team has endured a brutal season, with yesterday’s win taking their record to 4-7.
Despite the rare triumph, fans on social media were still determined to see their head coach fired.
“This team is unwatchable,” one began. “Thanks Mike McCarthy and Jerry Jones.
“Washington is basically giving this game to Dallas yet special teams and offense cannot do anything.
“I actually feel bad for the defense.”
A second raged, “Jerry Jones should fire the coaching staff, trade, drop release players left and right.
“But knowing Jones, he’ll probably sign Mike McCarthy to five year contract extension and give out bonuses to all the team for a 3 win season.”
A third fumed, “The dream is to fire Mike McCarthy.”
“Jerry should Fire Mike McCarthy right now for winning that game!” another added.
Prior to the game there had been talk of fans boycotting their Thanksgiving match-up with the New York Giants.
Two years ago, more than 40 million fans across America tuned into Fox for the Cowboys-Giants clash on Thanksgiving.
This year, however, tickets have been selling for as little as $25.
McCarthy, 61, is set to be out of contract at the end of the season.
Prior to joining the Cowboys in 2020, he worked as head coach of the Green bay Packers.
‘Match made in heaven’
By Sunni Upal, Deputy U.S. Sports Editor
Deion Sanders becoming head coach of the Dallas Cowboys is a match made in heaven.
It’s been 30 years now since the Cowboys last won a Super Bowl and something has to change.
This is “America’s Team,” but it has become a laughing stock and needs someone to restore them to their past glory.
That candidate who takes over from Mike McCarthy at head coach must have some magic and inspiration.
Step forward, Deion Sanders.
Sanders, 57, is one of the best players to have ever stepped on the field and was on Dallas’ team the last time they won a Super Bowl.
He is quite literally ‘Prime Time’ and that spark is exactly what the Cowboys need.
As for Deion, now is the perfect time for him to move on as well.
He has taken the Buffaloes to new heights both in terms of results and popularity.
His son, Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders, is also in his senior year in college.
Sanders could probably land a head coaching job on a legitimate national championship contender if he wants to stay in college.
But a chance to coach the Dallas Cowboys may not come calling again.
Yesterday’s win over Washington snapped a five-game losing streak.
After the game, McCarthy admitted that he was delighted to return to winning ways.
“It’s an excellent team win,” he said. “It’s just great to see our guys rewarded for just staying the course and grinding it out.
“The messaging has been great.
“No one’s really blinking with whatever is going on around us.
“It feels good to win.”
