The Dallas Cowboys have dominated headlines this year, but unfortunately, not for positive reasons.
Following their disappointing first-.round playoff loss in 2023, many expected the Cowboys to bounce back and compete for a chance to redeem themselves.
However, with a 3-7 record halfway through the season, the team has struggled to regain its momentum.
While there are numerous factors contributing to their poor performance, Dak Prescott and Mike McCarthy are often singled out as the primary issues.
McCarthy was almost fired last year, but Cowboys owner Jerry Jones chose to retain him, holding onto the hope that 2024 would bring better results.
With the Cowboys now effectively out of playoff contention, it’s unlikely McCarthy will remain as head coach next season.
Amid the growing calls for change, Colin Cowherd recently offered a bold suggestion for how the Cowboys could fix their team.
On a segment of The Herd, Cowherd proposed hiring Deion Sanders as the new head coach and drafting his son, Shedeur Sanders, as the new quarterback.
Cowherd was even willing to go as far as trading Micah Parsons and three first-round picks to secure Shedeur if needed.
Shedeur Sanders has been one of the standout quarterbacks in college football this season, and many believe he would make a seamless transition to the NFL.
Cowherd sees this move as a perfect fit for the Cowboys, with Shedeur replacing Prescott and potentially benefiting from his father’s coaching expertise.
The idea hinges on whether Jerry Jones is willing to make such a drastic change, given his history of conservative decision-making.
The question remains: Will Jerry Jones be willing to take this bold step to reshape the future of the Cowboys?
