I sorta like Moore, I have to say. But the dude does have a highly punchable face.

It’s like you wanna lay one on him and then take him to a Dave n Busters

It's not Moore's intelligence (or lack there of) that kept Moore from being a long-term NFL QB... It was a lack of arm-strength.

Well, he doesn't need arm-strength as an OC.

Cowboy fans want a young, creative mind at OC.

Moore could be it.

We'll see how this spins out.

Can he be his own guy or is there too much influence from Linehan and Garrett? I have the same doubts about that and experience.

I'd like to see something from the FO. Without that I see them negotiating with a known entity at present.

Good question.

I gotta think anyone taking over the position of OC has heard all the complaints about Linehan's play calling and would be reluctant to go down that road (again).

But that being said, I doubt we'll see this team suddenly become pass-happy as it did prior to the 2014 season. With the return of Frederick, the known talent in Elliott I doubt that is going to change.

What will change is the passing offense... And this kid (Moore) played in a very prolific passing offense in Boise State.

I don't think the entire offense needs to be scrapped.

Well he obviously knows more than many give him credit for.

Still too much vertical/timing offense for me current state of league. This offense needs to be more balanced within the passing game as well as passing/running.

Oh I fully agree.

Way too much vertical/timing offense.

It doesn't match with Prescott's skill set.

Agreed; Dak is more Steve Young than Troy Aikman. But I'm a proponent of matchups, mixing the attack up, and playing to their weaknesses and our strengths. That calls for a balanced, versatile, and flexible offense.

The most punchable face in football is still Jim Schwartz:

There isnt even a close second.

 

[CowboyChris]

after reading through this thread, its almost a guarantee Moore is our next OC

To me the epitome of the Linehan offense was the 4th & 1 vs. the Rams where the Rams defense shifted so there a huge mass of bodies exactly where Elliott was suppose to go... And of course Elliott went to that spot of the LOS and the play failed miserably.

That kind of thing simply can't happen.

It doesn't, nor will it, IMO.

Dallas wants to lean on having the identity of a physical running game.

Cool.

Getting Travis Frederick back next season will be much needed here, I can't overstate how much his absence hurt the OL this season. Having a run first team means you will hand the ball off more often on first down than other teams do or analytics say is wise. It also means staying with the call sometimes even when the opposing defense stacks the box expecting #21 to get the hand off.

But it also means becoming more flexible in those situations.

If an opposing defense is continuously stacking the box and daring the Cowboys to beat them with the passing game, or if their front seven is simply a bad match-up for our OL, we need to be able to go through the air with success.

That's on the coaches and players.

Versus what the Rams did on third down on the final possession of the game.

Put the QB on the move with a rollout on third down with the option to pass or run.
