Source: Cowboys plan to meet with Mike McCarthy, Marvin Lewis
McCarthy, 56, was head coach of the Packers from 2006 to 2018. He compiled a 125-77-2 record over 13 seasons and won Super Bowl XLV. Lewis, 61, served as the Bengals' head coach from 2003 to 2018, going 131-122-3. His 0-7 postseason mark marred a tenure in which Lewis became one of just three coaches to post a winning record with the Bengals.

Cowboys hire Mike McCarthy as new coach, Mike Nolan as defensive coordinator
Mike McCarthy will be the ninth head coach in the history of the Dallas Cowboys. New Orleams linebackers coach Mike Nolan will be the Cowboys' defensive coordinator under McCarthy. McCarthy compiled a 125-77-2 record with the Packers and made the playoffs in nine of his 13 seasons. In addition to the Super Bowl season, the Packers made it to the NFC Championship Game two times, but his tenure ended sourly, missing the playoffs in 2017 and getting fired after 12 games in 2018.

Can Mike McCarthy restore the Dallas Cowboys to their glory days?
He is one of four NFL coaches to lead a single franchise to at least eight straight playoff appearances, along with Tom Landry, Chuck Noll and Bill Belichick. He won more games with the Packers than anybody but Curly Lambeau.

Sources: Kellen Moore expected to remain Cowboys' offensive coordinator
In Moore's first year as a playcaller in 2019, the Cowboys were the top-ranked NFL offense in terms of yards per game and sixth in points per game. For the first time in franchise history, the Cowboys had a 4,000-yard passer (Dak Prescott), 1,000-yard rusher (Ezekiel Elliott) and two 1,000-yard receivers (Amari Cooper, Michael Gallup) in the same season.

Inside the eight days it took the Dallas Cowboys to hire a head coach
Multiple sources inside the Cowboys organization thought Jerry Jones was going to make the decision to move on from coach Jason Garrett immediately after the game. Instead, it took seven days for the break to become official. On Monday, the Cowboys reached an agreement on a five-year deal with McCarthy, bringing an end to their search and the end of an eight-day odyssey that at times was an adventure -- even for the Cowboys.

Sources: Giants interview Jason Garrett for offensive coordinator position
The Giants had requested permission to speak with Garrett about their head-coaching position before hiring Joe Judge. They needed permission because Garrett was still under contract. Garrett also has ties to the Giants organization, having played there from 2000 to 2003, and is well-respected inside their building.
Sources: Bears hiring John DeFilippo as QB coach
DeFilippo, whom Chicago interviewed for its head coaching vacancy two years ago before offering the job to Nagy, spent just one year as offensive coordinator of the Jacksonville Jaguars before he and the club mutually agreed to part ways on Monday.

Former Dallas Cowboys and Miami DolphinsJimmy Johnson to be part of Hall of Fame's centennial class
The Cowboys went 1-15 in Johnson's first season as coach in 1989 but steadily improved until the team won back-to-back Super Bowls in his fourth and fifth years. The Cowboys went 36-12 in Johnson's last three seasons in Dallas, winning two Super Bowls.
Cowboys' Mike McCarthy: Personnel decisions will be 'we' decisions
It came after McCarthy was asked about the importance of having the ability to hire his own coaching staff and the separation between church and state, so to speak, when it comes to putting a team together.
Cowboys' Drew Pearson disappointed at Hall of Fame snub, still hopeful
He is now the only member of the 1970s All-Decade team who has not earned enshrinement into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Pearson finished his career with 489 catches for 7,822 yards and 48 touchdowns. He earned the nickname "Mr. Clutch".

Mike McCarthy will continue to have Kellen Moore call Cowboys' plays
McCarthy called plays for most of his 13-year run with the Green Bay Packers and had some of the NFL's more successful offenses with Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers at quarterback. The Cowboys had the top-ranked offense in terms of yards and were sixth in points per game under Moore in 2019.

Jason Garrett joins Giants as new offensive coordinator
New coach Joe Judge made the announcement Friday night, hiring the former Dallas Cowboys head coach less than two weeks after he was let go by the Giants' NFC East rivals. The Giants originally had requested permission to speak with Garrett for their head-coaching position because he technically was still under contract with Dallas. But the Cowboys told Garrett that he was free to talk with other teams after the season and before his contract lapsed Tuesday.

As Jason Garrett heads to the Giants, let's close out his Cowboys era
In Garrett's nine full-time seasons, the Cowboys never got out of the divisional round of the playoffs. Three times, Dallas had chances to win the NFC East in head-to-head matchups in Week 17 and lost all three. Two other times, the Cowboys made it to Week 16 with a shot at the playoffs and missed out, including the 2019 season that effectively ended with a loss to the undermanned Philadelphia Eagles.

What is receiver Amari Cooper's worth for a new deal?
Based on the numbers he put up for the Cowboys in 2019, 79 catches, 1,189 yards and eight touchdowns he should be hobnobbing with the NFC's best, even as an injury replacement. Before the 2019 season started, the thought of Cooper, 25, making $18 million per season. With how Cooper started the season, it looked like the price tag might go even higher.

Updates: Amari On Contract Talks & Coach Changes
Amari Cooper hasn't talked to his agent recently about contract negotiations with the Cowboys, but he continues to emphasize his desire to stay in Dallas."I mean that wholeheartedly," Cooper told NFL Network's Jane Slater at the Pro Bowl. "I love Dallas. Just to have the opportunity to play on a different team, you see the changes and stuff like that. I feel like it's home. I feel like I want to live there for a long time." Cooper has an expiring contract but re-signing him is a top priority for the Cowboys.
While the Cowboys haven't yet announced a finalized staff under new head coach Mike McCarthy, multiple reports say Adam Henry is expected to be named new wide receivers coach. Cooper said he might ask Browns receivers Jarvis Landry or Odell Beckham Jr. about Henry, who coached both at LSU and Cleveland. "I was going to ask him about that, just to kind of get a heads up," Cooper said.

The Cowboys have hired George Edwards as a senior defensive assistant, according to sources. He will work with linebackers as well as focusing on sub-package defenses. He was Minnesota's defensive coordinator the last six seasons. Also Markus Paul will continue to serve as the head strength and conditioning coach, a role he had with Mike Woicik the last two seasons on Jason Garrett's staff.
The New York Giants coaching staff is starting to have a Cowboys feel to it with Marc Colombo hired as offensive line coach after Jason Garrett was hired as offensive coordinator. Former receivers coach Derek Dooley, who was at Missouri last year, interviewed for the tight ends job and Jerome Henderson is the defensive backs coach.
