Dallas Cowboys backup will make defenses sit down, be humble
http://thelandryhat.com/2017/06/09/dallas-cowboys-backup-defenses-sit-down/




Backup quarterback Kellen Moore not only knows the Dallas Cowboys playbook, he knows the entire system. And he’ll prove that in the preseason.
The Dallas Cowboys won’t have a quarterback controversy this year. With quarterback Dak Prescott sitting atop the depth chart, the other quarterbacks don’t have to worry about becoming the victim of a mysterious season ending injury. Of course, I’m also counting that the front office has gotten smarter – but don’t count on it...

...“[Moore’s] a genius behind the scenes, who doesn’t get enough credit for what he does helping me out and helping this offense out,” Prescott told the Dallas Morning News last December. “…He’s an offensive coordinator in his own mind. He’s simply a genius when it comes to helping Coach Linehan out and early in the week giving looks, helping me out with things the defense does, maybe little keys here and there to tip me off or coverages or blitzes.”...

Kellen Moore – son of a football coach – not only knows the playbook, he knows the entire offensive system. I’m willing to bet that he definitely understands both more than Prescott – after all, Moore is the player explaining things to Prescott. So, I’m ready for K. Dot to make these defenses sit down and be humble. Even if it is just during preseason.

Smart guy who doesn't have the physical attributes for the game at this level. Moore is a lot like Jason Garrett as a backup, if Garrett had been several inches shorter and had an even weaker arm.

A guy like Switzer will help Dak immensely, but he should be more valuable to a backup like Moore. Maybe that is why they are not too concerned with his limited ability.

I watched Moore through his entire collegiate career (Boise State fan) and while I understand he doesn't have the desired physical atributes of an NFL QB, he is as very football smart person (as the article states). I think he will make a great coach down the road and I feel comfortable having him help Dak through the playbook.

I know it may seem like I am being a homer, but trust me, I wouldn't be saying this about a lot of Boise State QBs I have seen over the years. haha *sigh*

Sounds like a young Jason Garrett.

If the hype on Moore's smarts is true, I could easily see him being a coach (Wade Wilson isn't getting any younger for instance). But the guy is small and has a noodle arm. Certainly no Doug Flutie.

Good thing QB is a combo of smarts and athletic ability. If it wasn't leaf, shuler, rg3 and many others would be hofers

A negative attitude and a tub of Ripple, will hold one's place around the burn barrel.
