It's not his fault his starting QB has a gimp leg that is messing up his footwork and mechanics. Also not his fault that he's stuck with an overpaid worn out RB with a bum knee. Not his fault that the offensive line is overpaid and getting old.

I've never seen anything like it. Last year, couldn't wait to get rid of him. This year at the early part of the season, many of you were crybabies about the idea of him leaving and become a head coach. And now you're back to wanting to get rid of him again.

Unbelievable!

I like him, he pisses me off as a fan watching the game at times and he's got a ton of growing to do but he's got a young fresh mind for the game and its a good.

Is the young fresh mind the reason our run game is 98% up the gut or why we don’t use play action more?

For me, it's not about starting Pollard, necessarily. It's about not doing what is clearly not working, like running up the gut, when they stop you cold every single time. It's about leaving Dak in the pocket, so the defense knows where to find him on every play. It's about long developing plays, when the O-line is having trouble protecting the QB, or screen passes all the way out on the edge, where the safety or CB can hit the receiver as soon as the ball gets there.

I like Moore, but he seems to insist on doing what works in practice, no matter how many times it doesn't work in the game. More often than not, it's an execution problem, but in some games, it's also the play calling.

He needs to cleanup the play calling....

he's got alot of growing to do, he's still hasn't been able to shake the awful Garrett stench yet
 
I still support him, but I do believe his lack of experience has been exposed at times.

Unlike JG, he seems to be able to learn from those mistakes.
 
I watched Garrett ball for a decade. Kellen Moore is still awesome to me.

We’re getting too bland and predictable again though.


I do think some pre-snap motion and the threat of a jet sweep could help this offense out.

It’s starting to look very Jason Garretty as of late.
 
It's a long season. I support Kellen Moore. Sometimes, I get perplexed by his play choices in certain time/situations of a game. But overall, I want no one else at this point in time.

We ran a RB 20 times last night
7 from pollard
Fairly even
I expect that’s what you will see going forward
I’d like to see pollard catching the ball a bit more myself, out in space
 
I'm obviously in his corner as a Boise State fan :D, no but really, I'm still on his side and rooting for him. Players still have to execute. I, also, don't have a problem with him trying to pound the rock up the middle. That is what our Oline is "supposedly" built to do. Also, and they actually talked about this on The Break today, how do we know what kind of side effects trying to pound it down the middle may have? Like opening up outside lanes for a Pollard run later in the game?

I get it is frustrating to watch when it's not working, but you have to try to run the ball.

What really entertains me about being in the game threads on gameday is watching the bi-polar posting. Moore calls runs and everybody is yelling to stop and pass it more. Moore starts calling passes and everybody is yelling to stop and run it more. Is really quite comical.
 
Too cute. Too much finesse. Too much spread 'em out. Not being able to kill the clock late is the same type of nonsense that dogged KC vs. Dallas. They had to keep throwing or acquiescing to going three and out. Like I said, it's easy to look like a genius when you have 3 pro-bowl level WRs. His stock has dropped a lot since the Denver game. The run-pass rate since then has hovered around 30% - 70%. This is a recipe for a quick exit in the playoffs. Looking more like a Garrett offense these days.

Chuck ball ain't gonna get it done. Any delusions to the contrary are just that. Dallas will either re-balance this offense or they will go nowhere in the playoffs. Teams will start to play them the same way that they play KC (with two-deep safeties)...forcing them to go a very long route for points, where the potential for negative plays and penalties are increased.

Going 2 for 13 on third down and losing the TOP by nearly four minutes is some pretty funky football.

He’s just 33 years old and had to coach w Garrett most of his career. He’s creative and getting noticed. I’m glad we have him.
