The Dallas Cowboys are sticking with head coach Mike McCarthy for 2024, ESPN reported Wednesday.

The Cowboys' disastrous loss at home to the Green Bay Packers last weekend — a 48-32 stunner — had many questioning McCarthy's future as the team's head coach.

ESPN previously reported McCarthy was always going to be judged on how the final game of the year went. 

Despite a third straight 12-5 regular season, this one ending with an NFC East title, Dallas fell short of its Super Bowl aspirations again.

However, owner Jerry Jones seems content to give McCarthy another chance next season. 

The Cowboys have been a fantastic regular season team under McCarthy, but they have just one playoff win to show for it during his four-year tenure (he went 6-10 in his first season in 2020). For a team that hasn’t been to a Super Bowl since 1995, with an owner who demands success and nothing less than a Vince Lombardi Trophy every season, that’s not good enough. 

Jones said after Sunday's game he was "floored" by the loss to Jordan Love and the Packers, who came out firing in the first half. Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott looked the exact opposite of his regular-season self.

"This is beyond my comprehension," Jones told reporters. 

He also had no comment on McCarthy’s future, which generated speculation.
