Following Dallas’s loss to San Francisco in Sunday’s NFC divisional round playoff game, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones assured that McCarthy’s job “remains safe” as the team’s coach and that Jones agreed with McCarthy’s decision making with kicker Brett Maher.
Jones even went so far as to say that Maher was “exonerated” after making both of his field goal attempts on Sunday, according to Jori Epstein of Yahoo.
The Cowboys offense struggled all afternoon to get anything going against the stout 49ers defense. Dallas tallied just 282 yards of total offense and went 5-for-15 on third down in Sunday’s defeat.
