After parting ways with Mike McCarthy's 18 years of NFL head coaching experience, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones praises Brian Schottenheimer's "baggage."

After the Dallas Cowboys didn’t reach an agreement to retain coach Mike McCarthy, owner Jerry Jones chose a successor from within and promoted offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to head coach, in a move that would have been seen as stunning as recently as a few days ago.

The Cowboys will hire an offensive coordinator, but like Mike McCarthy before him, Brian Schottenheimer will call the offense.
