Schottenheimer replaced Mike McCarthy, who recently departed after five seasons. McCarthy (49-35) led the Cowboys to the postseason three times, getting just one victory. McCarthy also produced three consecutive 12-win seasons.

Jerry defended the decision as the culmination of a “thorough, thorough process.” The Cowboys interviewed Robert Saleh, Leslie Frazier, Kellen Moore, and Schottenheimer. They created some buzz by making it known that they spoke to Deion Sanders and Pete Carroll, although neither was officially interviewed.
