We need to lock up Kellen Moore for as long as we possibly can

I an as excited as the next guy and I think this will play out through the course of the season but it’s early and we’ve beaten 2 teams we should have

Dak looks like a top 10 QB and his stats probably say top 5

When we put up 20 plus against the Bears defense and perhaps the. Eagles and packers then I’d say extend everyone

This marathon is in the first laps

I know it is early. I am just enjoying things so far and am snake bit with this team for years now. I mean Romo hardly ever had even close to good coordinators. It is such a relief to see this success. A fun point, since you mentioned it, Dak is the no 1 rated passer, just ahead of Mahomes.

I’m also enjoying it Dak looks great and at the moment the offensive coordinator looks like the real deal

Romo had the coordinators he just didn’t always listen to them “ kill kill kill”

Poor tony was snakebit but some of his bad luck was his own making

Nobody is in a financial position to outbid Dallas for Kellen Moore as an offensive co-ordinator. However, rules dictate that we have to let him go if he's offered a head coaching role.

He is going to quickly become a very hot commodity. Clearly he is a big key to our success. So many times you lose coaches, and argue that someone under them will just carry on with the same philosophy. But it rarely if ever works out that way. To have gone so long with poor coaching, more than 15 years, and finally have what feels like the perfect fit, I am just hopeful that Jerry tells him the right words, pays him the right amount of money. There is no salary cap for coaches, so pay him every penny he wants, to make up for the status he will inevitably want from some new offered title, elsewhere. And making him the head coach is not the solution in my opinion, because then his focus shifts too much and is necessarily spread too thin. I am just interested in heading off what seems inevitable.


Oh great. Here comes another week of exaggeration, hyperbole and jumping to conclusions.

"Romo had the coordinators"
Lol I'm sorry but Romo had to deal with bum coaches for the majority of his career. You're the first person I've seen who's said otherwise.

Without his audibles, those teams would've sucked even more.

first person? you been in a cave? Linehan was a joke last couple years but he was considered very good in years like 2014.
Jason Garrett before he became head coach 2007-2012 was a coordinator
JASON GARRETT (2007-2012)

https://thelandryhat.com/2013/06/12/cowboys-flashback-offensive-coordinators-of-cowboys-past/

Jason Garrett was hired before Head Coach Wade Phillips was, a pick that Jerry Jones made as this selection was questioned at first. As Garrett began the season, he made Jones look like a genius. As an OC, he was credited for being making adjustments during the course of a game. After Phillips was fired in the middle of the 2010 season, he took over as interim coach and eventually given the full time job after the season was complete. Garrett continued to call the plays, never hiring an offensive coordinator until 2012 when he hired Bill Callahan. Garrett has relinquished the play calling duties for the 2013-14 season.

Bill Callahan’s fate has been written yet but our fans hope it is similar to the Landry days of the 70’s or the Turner-Zampese days from the 1990’s. We all want the end result to end up with a sixth trophy, much like his predecessors, he will have a lot of eyes watching his every call.
Unless of corse the cowboys success was all on Tony as some would like to claim.

Kellen Moore has been great through two whole real NFL games. I love what I’ve seen so far and kudos to him. Look I’m excited too but with 14 more games on the schedule, let’s hold off on administering the anointing oil just yet. Two games is...two games.

it's a hypothetical discussion, and one that is certainly to be at it's strongest point come playoff time when the lousy teams will be on the look for young upstart coaches, and
we'll have 2 of them that will be likely pouched at season's end. (Moore, Richard)

with the excitement of the current offense, Cowboys Nation are gonna want to think of a way, the best ways - to keep Moore on and keep this explosive foundation roll going...
and since Garrett isn’t really the creative mastermind behind this offense, should Moore leave, the best bet is to promote the 2nd best creative mastermind that was behind Kellen,
- and I assume that would either be Brad Musseheimer (TE coach) or Jon Kitna ( QB coach)

and the same way Garrett & co., thought to bring Moore, Musseheimer and Jon Kitna, the staff will have to have other coaching candidates on board that share similar coaching mindset, tactics and schematics to what Moore has.

If I were Moore I would take a college HC position.

He is going to quickly become a very hot commodity. Clearly he is a big key to our success. So many times you lose coaches, and argue that someone under them will just carry on with the same philosophy. But it rarely if ever works out that way. To have gone so long with poor coaching, more than 15 years, and finally have what feels like the perfect fit, I am just hopeful that Jerry tells him the right words, pays him the right amount of money. There is no salary cap for coaches, so pay him every penny he wants, to make up for the status he will inevitably want from some new offered title, elsewhere. And making him the head coach is not the solution in my opinion, because then his focus shifts too much and is necessarily spread too thin. I am just interested in heading off what seems inevitable.

I'm down for a lifetime contract only to expire upon the day in which there is no longer a pulse.

As some have mentioned this before in the forum , Jason Garrett is willing to jeopardize the team's well being as long as he can be HC .

Kellen might very well be Garrett's next victim ...,real soon .

not yet...give it a few more games. we have played against two crappy defenses, plus, lets see what he does in adjusting to the DCs adjusting to him....it will happen...that will be the tell tale sign of him and how good he can be.
