Dallas just launched McCarthy.
Earlier on this thread I said Bears wouldn't get him. But, that was because Dallas' denial of permission fir the Bears to talk with him meant he wasn't leaving Dallas.
So, the reason for my conclusion just blew up on me.
Doesn't their refusal to allow him to speak with another team, just to fire him 6 days later, come off as a duck move on the part of Dallas?
