Vikings fans are plenty familiar with McCarthy, who coached the Packers from 2006-2018. McCarthy totaled a record of 125-77-2 with Green Bay and made the postseason nine times, including winning the 2010 Super Bowl.
McCarthy will go from Aaron Rodgers to Dak Prescott and what will be a pretty explosive offense. There will be expectations, however, and that’s what Jason Garrett could never live up to.
The Vikings will get a look at McCarthy and the Cowboys at some point during the 2020 season at U.S. Bank Stadium .
