Skip Bayless has made his feelings known on who he wants the next Dallas Cowboys coach to be and did so as only he can — with an all caps plea on social media.

Since the Pittsburgh Steelers lost in Saturday night’s Wild Card Round game against the Baltimore Ravens, speculation has grown surrounding head coach Mike Tomlin’s future in Pittsburgh. Chase Daniel wondered on Saturday night that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones may be dragging his feet in contract talks with Mike McCarthy (whose contract expires on Tuesday), thinking that Tomlin may become available. Similarly, before Sunday’s game between the Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles, Jimmy Johnson floated the idea of the Cowboys and Steelers swapping coaches.

That’s music to Bayless’ ears. Bayless, who rarely misses a chance to make his love of the Cowboys known, took to X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, literally begging for the Steelers to send Tomlin to Dallas.

“PLEASE, STEELERS, PLEASE TRADE MIKE TOMLIN FOR MIKE MCCARTHY. PRETTY PLEASE,” he said.

We do have some unfortunate news for Bayless.

Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported on Sunday that the Steelers aren’t likely to move on from Tomlin.

“Despite a widespread public outcry and another embarrassing early exit from the postseason, the Steelers are not planning to make any move involving coach Mike Tomlin, according to team sources,” Dulac wrote. “After losing their sixth consecutive postseason game and being one-and-done for the eighth time under Tomlin, the Steelers will apparently attempt to fix their recurring problems with solutions that don’t involve their 18-year head coach.”

Maybe next year, Skip.
