‘I know how to win’: Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy defends his Super Bowl credentials
FRISCO, Texas — Mike McCarthy took the podium at Cowboys headquarters Wednesday and agreed.
“No doubt,” the second-year Cowboys coach said, “we did not reach our goal.”
The Cowboys hired the longtime Packers leader in 2020 with the expectation he could take a contending roster deep into the postseason. Instead, McCarthy’s Cowboys finished 6-10 in an inaugural season marred by injuries and then succeeded a 12-5 2021 campaign with the NFL’s lone home playoff loss of the wild-card weekend.
