It looks like Pete Carroll is emerging as a potential candidate for the Dallas Cowboys’ head coaching position following Mike McCarthy’s departure.
If true, this move could signify a major shift in leadership and strategy for the team. Carroll’s success with the Seahawks, particularly with their “Legion of Boom” defense, and his ties to the West Coast Offense could make him a strong fit for Dallas.
The connections with current Cowboys assistant Brian Schottenheimer, and Carroll’s history of assembling strong staffs, suggest that the team is exploring a well-rounded, experienced approach to its coaching structure. The inclusion of familiar names like Jason Witten, Gus Bradley, and others with ties to Carroll could provide both continuity and innovation.
However, the dynamic of working under GM Jerry Jones could be a key factor, especially given Carroll’s prior executive authority in Seattle. If this hire happens, it will be interesting to see how the balance of power and vision for the team’s future unfolds.
