The Dallas Cowboys experienced one of the most humiliating home defeats in franchise history during Week 6, being thoroughly outplayed by the Lions.

As the team heads into their bye week, many pressing questions arise, particularly concerning the coaching staff.

Following a disappointing 3-3 start, including three consecutive home losses, fans and media have begun speculating about Mike McCarthy’s job security.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones addressed these concerns during his Tuesday appearance on 105.3 The Fan, as reported by Jon Machota of The Athletic.

When asked about the possibility of an in-season coaching change, Jones firmly stated that it would not happen.

This might seem surprising at first, especially considering McCarthy is in the final year of his contract and did not receive an extension in the offseason.

His job security has been in doubt after failing to advance in the playoffs for three consecutive years, making this season a critical “prove it” year for him. Clearly, he hasn’t met those expectations.

So why not let him go and try to salvage the season?

For those familiar with the Cowboys and Jerry Jones, the answer is straightforward: financial considerations.

Jones appears unwilling to pay McCarthy to leave, opting instead to let his contract expire and seek a new head coach in the 2025 offseason.

If the Cowboys continue to struggle in the meantime, it seems Jones is indifferent to the consequences.

His history shows that he prioritizes financial decisions over immediate team performance, leading to the current situation with McCarthy.
