That didn't take long. Just under 24 hours after it was made official that Jason Garrett would no longer be the Dallas Cowboys head coach, the team has announced Mike McCarthy as his replacement. McCarthy was not even among the coaches given odds by BetOnline.

Lincoln Riley was our biggest liability by far.
McCarthy stayed at the home of Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones on Saturday night, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
"Once you stay at Jerry's house, he doesn't lose his guy," the source said.
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.
