What it should do is force the offense to get more aggressive.
Linehan too often just called 3 straight running plays inside the 40 and we would end up missing a 50+ FG.
Now I expect us to take more shots down field with Moore calling plays.
Get the kicker closer.
Score TDs.
Just let him kick PAT.
No more adventure and no more need to have DAK win in the 4th Qt.
We have not done that since 2016.
What a concept.

Hopefully! That AND getting a more reliable kicker. Lol

With Kellen Moore calling the offense, we won't even need a kicker.

Maher was bottom 6 by make percentage. Baiely was bottom 2 if you can believe it.
Regular percentage can be misleading as we don't have average distance per attempt. And small sample sizes a kick here or there can really swing things.
Either way not good.

We were really lucky with Bailey until his injury.
I think it forced Garrett last year to actually go for some 4th downs at times.
I like that sort of thinking.
We.need to get away from that predictatble offense that was Linehan.
Throw on 1st down..run on 2nd and 3rd.
Throw 3 downs in a row..
Bootleg and move DAK left then next play move him right..
next play QB draw
Then kick a 25 yd FG if you have to.
Imagine.
Linehan couldn't.

Yea but I was hoping to see a little more urgency for the position. Like using a draft pick or signing a UDFA in the first couple of hrs... or both. They seem complacent at Kicker.

They really do need to bring in competition......It's certainly not a slam dunk like was with Bailey.

I’m not even looking for a slam dunk. Just don’t wanna be standing up in my living room with my butt hole puckered up every time Dallas kicks a 30 yrd FG...

That's right, my bad……………..I meant to say the opposite. He is good from long distance but inconsistent on shorter attempts.
