The Chicago Bears have requested an interview with Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy, giving Jerry Jones the perfect excuse to move on from the former Super Bowl champ.

The head coach of the Dallas Cowboys has finished his five-year contract. And if Sunday’s game against the Washington Whatevers is indeed Mike McCarthy’s final act with the team, he was basically Jason Garrett 2.0.

What might Cowboys owner Jerry Jones say about allowing Mike McCarthy to interview elsewhere? "I’d say, ‘Go talk,'' Jones said with a smile. "I don’t want anybody here who doesn’t want to be here.'' And suddenly the coach has an invite from the Bears.
