Brett Favre reveals who he thinks should be the next Dallas Cowboys coach

Legendary NFL quarterback Brett Favre thinks Deion Sanders should be a leading contender to become the new coach of the Dallas Cowboys if Mike McCarthy gets fired.

McCarthy’s position in Texas is extremely vulnerable after a dismal season that has left them at 4-7 and almost certainly out of playoff contention.

Earlier this week, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones admitted he could still offer McCarthy a new contract.

But last season’s collapse in the playoffs and their abysmal home form this season has led many to expect him not to be offered a new contract.

Sanders, who has completely transformed the Colorado Buffaloes, is a leading contender for a potential Dallas vacancy given his history with the franchise.

The 57-year-old won a Super Bowl with the Cowboys in 1996 and played in Dallas for five seasons.

Speaking to TMZ, Favre thinks Sanders has the ‘character’ to revive the Cowboys.

He said: ‘If he does go in the direction of firing Mike McCarthy, which I have no idea which way he’s leaning, Deion may have a shot to step in there.

‘I think he’s definitely worthy of a shot. I think the world of him.

‘I know him personally. So, I know what kind of character he has.’

The Cowboys and New York Giants stumble onto center stage for a Thanksgiving battle of backup quarterbacks, as the out-of-contention NFC East rivals have served up a combined six wins and 16 losses in 2024.

Cooper Rush helped the Cowboys return to the win column at Washington before the three-day prep for playing holiday host to the Giants, who have shuffled plans amid another potential quarterback switch.

The playoffs are an afterthought at the moment. Dallas is tied for fourth in the NFC and the Giants are dead last with the final third of the season ahead.

Beating the Commanders 34-26 on Sunday eased the pressure on the Cowboys, if only briefly, and they will now try to win at home for the first time in six tries. 

The Cowboys are shooting for a season sweep of the Giants for the fourth consecutive season.

Beyond their 0-5 home record, the Cowboys are 2-1 in the NFC East but have been outscored by 98 points on the season.

Dallas was 8-0 at home in the 2023 regular season, then started a streak of six consecutive losses — including the wildcard blowout by the Packers — by an average of 22.3 points.
