The Dallas Cowboys faced yet another humiliating home defeat on Sunday, this time losing to the Detroit Lions.

This loss has placed head coach Mike McCarthy back on the hot seat, a situation he has become accustomed to lately.

Despite Cowboys owner Jerry Jones assuring the media of his support for McCarthy after the game,

speculation is rife about the possibility of former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick taking over the job. NFL insider Jordan Schultz shared on social media that Belichick might be a top candidate for the Cowboys if they decide to make a coaching change in the offseason.

Schultz noted that multiple sources indicate Belichick has a strong rapport with the Jones family.

While a good relationship with the owner doesn’t guarantee a hiring, it can certainly be advantageous.

However, for Belichick, returning to coaching would mean stepping away from his current media pursuits.

This season, he has engaged in various television roles, which he has embraced.

Despite his media presence, Belichick is just 15 wins away from breaking the NFL’s all-time wins record for a head coach, a strong motivator for him to consider a return to coaching.

Schultz’s comments suggest that Belichick could be a name to watch in the upcoming season, although some fans are calling for a coaching change immediately.

Notably, sports commentator Skip Bayless expressed his frustration on social media, questioning how McCarthy still has his job.

The discussion continues in the broader context of sports media, with shows like “The Play-By-Play” covering various industry topics.

Recent episodes discussed ESPN’s firing of Robert Griffin III and Sam Ponder, as well as Ariel Helwani’s partnership with Yahoo Sports.

The hosts also addressed the social media feud between ESPN’s Mina Kimes and Clay Travis, among other topics.

In another episode, the hosts reviewed the broadcasting debuts of figures like Tom Brady and Jason Kelce, alongside Belichick’s numerous media appearances.

The podcast also explored changes within

“The NFL Today” and the shifting landscape of sports broadcasting.

Furthermore, the conversation touches on Jones’s history with mid-season coaching changes, recalling the 2010 season when he fired coach Wade Phillips after a dismal 1-7 start, promoting Jason Garrett as the interim coach, who remained until 2019.

Although a 3-3 record is significantly better than a 1-7 start, the prospect of a legendary coach like Belichick potentially waiting in the wings adds urgency to the situation.

As it stands, Jones seems reluctant to make a drastic decision, but continued poor performances could certainly escalate discussions regarding
