The legendary wide receiver has been a vocal critic of the team’s recent struggles.
Irvin has never been one to shy away from expressing his thoughts, but his post-playoff rant was deemed particularly intense.
Following what was arguably the most disappointing loss in Cowboys history, Irvin called for a major coaching overhaul, specifically targeting head coach Mike McCarthy.
Appearing on FS1’s “Undisputed,” Irvin did not mince words, stating that owner Jerry Jones needs to move on from McCarthy.
“You can’t sell hope with this intact. I want Bill Belichick’s discipline with an innovative offensive-minded coach,” Irvin declared.

The Belichick-to-Dallas rumblings are getting louder and louder by the minute.
There was thought that McCarthy might be in trouble with anything less than a Super Bowl run … But no one expected Dallas to lose to the seventh seeded Packers at home on Sunday.
Needless to say, losing that game – especially in THAT fashion – may have very well doomed McCarthy.
His regular season success is absolutely meaningless when he continues to underperform in the postseason … No, it’s not all his fault – but at some point, heads need to roll, and it feels like that time is now.
Irvin emphasized the need for a change in coaching philosophy, advocating for Belichick’s renowned discipline combined with an offensive-minded coordinator to inject innovation and unpredictability into the team.

What are your thoughts on Irvin’s frustration and recommendation?
Should Jones fire McCarthy and hire Belichick?
Do you think Sunday was the single-worst loss in Cowboys history???
