The Dallas Cowboys and Mike McCarthy are officially going their separate ways after McCarthy spent five seasons as the head coach of the Cowboys. It appeared as though the two sides might be working towards a new deal when Dallas blocked the Chicago Bears from interviewing McCarthy last week.

With six days to go in the exclusive negotiating window, all eyes are on what the Dallas Cowboys decide on Mike McCarthy’s future. He coached this season in the final year of his contract, and the spotlight grew even bigger after the franchise denied the Chicago Bears’ request to interview him for their head coach position.

ESPN's Adam Schefter teased the possibility of the New Orleans Saints not only hiring former Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy - who just left the Dallas Cowboys - but also having the hire lead to a reunion with both Rodgers and All-Pro wide receiver Davante Adams.

On Monday night, ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter named two former Cowboys players who could be in the hunt for the job in Big D. They fit a route owner Jerry Jones has gone before with former head coach Jason Garrett.

ESPN's Adam Schefter provided more details about Ben Johnson potentially becoming the next Raiders head coach.

Adam Schefter continues to downplay Ben Johnson to the Raiders and reiterates the Bears are still a strong contender.

Mike McCarthy is not expected to return to Dallas and is now set to become a free agent, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The Chicago Bears went to market for a head coach earlier than most NFL teams, making the decision to fire Matt Eberflus following Thanksgiving. Now, it appears the Bears are looking to focus their coaching search on Mike McCarthy.

Social media had no shortage of opinions on the Chicago Bears inquiring about trading for Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin.

Jerry Jones' unwillingness to break the bank for a head coach could be a major obstacle for the Dallas Cowboys if they want to pursue Deion Sanders.
