Could be MM and the staff, as well as Moore have a plan. They want this offense to be a certain way, and need to stick to. The plan to get it all in sync first, then add to it.
RPO's may be worked in later, but it does not have to be the core of the plan.
Not saying I agree or disagree with any of it, or viewpoints, just offering a different way to look at it. Teams do not show everything they have in the 1st few games.
Could be they are saving some of that until the division games, or later when really need to get a win in the playoff push.

I don't know about an "RPO" gameplan, but we have ran some RPO plays.
We have one of the better offenses in the NFL, what are you complaining about? THey aren't getting the yards and scores the way YOU want them to so Moore sucks?
Really, the offense is fine.

Wasn’t at least one of his rushing TDs last week a RPO.

RPO is like anything else in the NFL. The more you run it the more film the guys who spend 80 hours a week trying to stop it get to see it. While I would love to see Dak run 6-7 designed runs a game in addition to maybe 3-4 scrambles for first downs, I have no desire to see us turn into some *******ized version of the wishbone. Dak is too good a passer and we have too many good receivers to run that offense.

I think Dak should have 6-7 designed runs per game. Russel Wilson puts so much pressure on a defense simply bc the threat of his legs is always on defender’s minds— which slows them down.
Also— move the pocket, roll him out on a regular basis, and use play action more to freeze defenders.

Comparing the running ability of Wilson to Dak is silly.

He simply needs to use his legs more.
This offense would be much better off that way but I truly think he was coached out of that by the last (and maybe current) regime.
There are times when he needs to get out of that pocket and move....either before throwing or running for yardage and he doesnt take it.
As far as RPO....I hold out hope (because that's all this is ever about) that boy genius will add some of this later in the season for a big game when it's not at all on film.

An RPO is not the same as the Read Option...
An RPO does not mean that the QB is the runner.
RPO:
The QB either passes or hands off.
Most players are executing a run play (i.e. Run Blocking).
One or two receivers run routes the others execute a run play.
Read Option:
The QB either hands off or runs it himself.
Play Action:
The QB fakes a hand off and then passes.
All players are executing a pass play.
Receivers running routes and blockers pass blocking.

The ability to run is implied. Otherwise, it's just a play action built in as an option, but it's not that effective if you're not a running threat. Dak isn't any better than an average QB in that regard.
Average from the pocket and average runner. Wilson, on the other hand, is elite at both.

I am not saying Dak is as good a runner as Wilson. He is not.
But he is effective enough as a runner that if we intentionally incorporate his legs into our offense— it will affect defenses in a similar way to Wilson in that teams have to account for it.

Only nominally so, and mostly between the 20s. It also gets your QB hurt.

Scoring points is not the issues. Preventing the other guys from scoring is much more of a problem
