-Former Cowboys backup QB with very little talent
-Given an OC job way before he deserved it
-kept on as OC and forced onto new HC (Don't care what McCarthy says to the media
-Boring and conservative play calling despite being labeled as a “bright young mind”

I’m like 95% sure Kellen Moore will be the Cowboys head coach with in the next 3 years

Don't even joke about that.

I have to concur, if I had to pick the biggest let down from Sunday was the offensive play-calling. Now, maybe Dak was looking off his first reads but no play action, very little throwing deep, no creativity. This isn't what we signed up for. If things continue this way, I suspect that Big Mike will be taking over the playcalling sooner rather than later.

He's not wrong.

Jerry’s ego is too big to admit he’s wrong on a guy he’s hand picked. Same reason Garrett was given so long, Jerry was try to give Garrett as long as he needed to prove himself right. No rational person would have given Garrett 1/2 as many years as he was the HC.

The same reason Randy Gregory has been given about 27 chances and somehow given an extension.

Same reason Jaylon Smith was given a way too early extension, Jerry couldn’t wait to spike it in everyone’s face that he gambled and won on that pick.

And I’m sure I could keep going...

I would agree that it was my biggest disappointment. I know that McCarthy didn't want to make wholesale changes right away, but I expected to see at least better game-planning and a little more creativity than we saw last year. Instead, it was practically the same ol', same ol'. If McCarthy thought that was good enough because we had the "No. 1 offense" last year, he wasn't paying attention. This offense struggled against good defenses for the same reason it had struggled against them throughout Garrett's run, because it simply tried to run its offense without making any adjustments to outsmart the good defense.

As I said in another thread, I was envious of the way the Rams came out and got the ball out of Goff's hands quickly to negate the expected improved pass rush from us. It had a plan specific to what it expected from our defense. We eventually adjusted, but that plan helped LA score its first 13 points. The Rams attacked our supposed weakness (the secondary) while avoiding our supposed strength (DL pressure).

More excuses for the wack behind QB. Gee wiz how many more bodies have to be sacrificed before y'all get to the truth that Dak isn't it?

Even if JJ met an untimely demise, you still have SJ and his ego is rivaling his dad...This is the new/old normal...

Literally none of that had anything to do with the QB. You’re sick, get help

Garrett was a quarterback in the league for a long time where he learned from some of the best offensive coaches in the league. Then he was a quarterbacks coach for one year for Nick Saban. Then he got the coordinator job here.

Moore is a nobody who scott linehan brought with him here. He was hired because the public demanded linehan be fired and Jerry and Stephen are reactionary and do not make sound decisions. So linehan was fired and because they kept Garrett in a lame duck year there was no one else to run the offense they gave the job to Moore.

Somehow Someway a lifelong offensive coach Mike McCarthy who swore by calling plays and came up learning the west coast system from Paul Hackett who learned from Bill Walsh while the wr coach in SF decided to abandon all that knowledge and just let moore run his linehan offense......So naturally McCarthy kept moore around because he was impressed with him.

then we found out reality. Dak didn't want the offense to change and spoke up about it and so here we are. Last nights 4th and 3 failure sequence was sure close to the terrible sequence at the end of the vikings game last year.

You can't even say that because in Garrett's first year in 2007 his offense was apart of the a 13 win season.......not only that but he was heavily coveted at one point to be a head coach. Helen Moore ain't SHOWED US NOTHING. His claim to fame is the first 3 weeks of last year.

Not writing him off by no means but let's be realistic about what he's shown us thus far. He's shown us nothing and we were sold on what he COULD be. Not sold what he is.

It's early but this is why all offseason when the Kellen Moore and Mike McCarthy Kool-Aid was flowing I was saying I wanted them to show me before I bought into this.


To me it looks like they are going to be stubborn and bought into the BS about how productive the offense was last year so why change it.

You keep bringing up this Dak didnt want change. Where are you getting this from? Inside sources?

Maybe you're sick and need help but I'm doing pretty fine to be honest. A lot of it had to do with the QB or else we might as well just get rid of him and let Dalton start.
