Moore has McVay traits

Not saying Moore will ever be Sean McVay or that I endorse Moore as OC over other candidates. But before the board freaks out over a potential hire of Moore as OC, consider this. Like MCVay, Moore was the son of a coach. His father is a very decorated 23 season high school coach who won 4 state championships. (Yes I know far different from NFL coach). Literally, Moore’s entire youth was spent on practice field and sidelines. Second, he is the winningest college QB. Ever. He sees the game through a QB’s eyes and he knows what it takes for a QB to win. In college, he played for an innovative offensive coach in Chris Peterson, who was not afraid to be very creative and call trick plays and use a lot of motion. This surely rubbed off on Moore. Third, more than any assistant coach, he knows Dak’s strengths and weaknesses. He’s been his teammate or position coach for Dak’s entire career. You cannot underestimate that relationship. Finally, he was about the same age as McVay when McVay got his head coaching job. Daniel Jeremiah tweeted today that NFL views Moore as a rising star capable of being a head coach soon, like McVay. So factor all this in...

Hmmmm, this is a very thoughtful post

I still think anyone hired from within will just be a puppet of JJ and JG

The optics have people flipping out. Nobody here knows jack about Moore's qualifications. Some figure since he couldn't fix Dak, he must not know what he's doing...and maybe they're right. But with all the resources available to our FO, if they choose to give Moore the OC position, it's because they believe he's the best fit, and maybe that was the plan all along, and QB coach was just a rung on the ladder.

Not saying he wouldn't ever... but Cowboys fan base have already witnessed the results of "developing" a head coach already.
Not in the camp of doing the same for a potential OC.
We need resume and results here... now.

There’s a huge difference between mcvey and Moore

Mcvey had Washington’s offense moving the ball with cousins they had issues in the red zone but that was a cousins issue

Moore?

I’m not saying Moore is bad but he shouldn’t be given the job

You just don’t hand the reins of a top tier offense to a completely inexperienced coach. It’s ridiculous. McVay even with those traits wasn’t fast tracked like this.

Well Jerry handed the keys to the franchise to a completely inexperienced coach. And since it’s worked so well with all the playoff wins and SB wins can’t blame him for trying the same with the OC position. :facepalm:

Why all of a sudden is Moore, "fast rising"? What are they talking about? This guy has done NOTHING in the NFL as a player or coach. His 5 years as a backup QB were all under Linehan. So we are going to hire the guy that was ONLY the backup QB for the guy we just fired?

This just gets worse and worse.

I beg to differ. Before he was promoted to OC in Washington, McVay had 1 year as assistant TE coach and 2 years as TE coach for WAS. How is that appreciably different than Moore?

He's doing this so we'll stop complaining about Garrett because Moore is next in line. lol

This is the last chance for JG, IMO.

Should go outside of our team but here we are. Let’s see what Moore does and if he can utilize Dak’s mobility.

This is no time for being sensible. You are gonna have to hold your breath till you turn blue to fit in round here.

We have no idea how Moore will do if he’s given the job. All I’m saying is that there are parallels between him and McVay, and if you believe plugged-In guys like Jeremiah, Moore is highly regarded in the NFL and College coaching community.
