NFL Rumors: Rival Exec Believes Cowboys Could Pursue Belichick to Replace McCarthy

An anonymous NFL executive believes that Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones will attempt to bring in Bill Belichick as the team's next head coach following another disappointing postseason exit under Mike McCarthy, according to Bleacher Report's Jordan Schultz.

"One rival executive told me this week that if the Cowboys lost to the Packers, he thought Jerry Jones would go after Bill Belichick to replace Mike McCarthy," Schultz reported.

Although McCarthy hasn't been fired just yet, the writing appears to be on the wall after Jones told reporters that "we'll see how each game goes" in the playoffs before making a decision regarding his future in Dallas, via Clarence Hill Jr.
