We never had the #1 offense in the NFL with Dak at QB until Moore took over.

Yet Moore is the problem.
There's alot to unpeel here.

One, Moore is clearly not the sole problem but yes, I think he's kind of an issue especially when he faces some of these top level defenses. As pointed out, there is a predictability to this offense that better teams pick up on.

Two, Moore isn't so good that he's irreplaceable.

Three, with that in mind, and knowing that his contract makes him almost untradeable/uncuttable at this point, trying to pair Dak with a different system may be the only thing that works.

Ideally, it would be great if both get sent off somewhere. But that's not happening. I get that thinking Moore moving on is scapegoating him. Personally, I don't see it that way. For me, I only care about what the team does and knowing that Dak is going nowhere, Moore isn't to great or awesome or superb, that we can't at least try another offensive voice here.

I was in Tampa for the Cowboys at Bucs wild card game.

According to all the Bucs fans around me we were not dominating that game. We were not the better team.

All of their problems centered around their OC and all the wrong plays he was calling and how he couldn't get the wide receivers open.

Hey, I can change the fuel pump all I want but if the motor's blown the motor's blown.

Moore looked genius against Tampa Bay. There's nothing wrong with him that a change of QBs wouldn't fix.
Both last year and this year in the playoff game he showed NOTHING. Now Dak has a lot of that blame but Moore came up small both times

I think the only potential way out of this mouse wheel we are in is a completely new offensive system/coach working with Dak.

Moore + Dak ain't working. We aren't dumping Dak. So hope Moore gets a job somewhere.

Then again, Jerry would likely hire some dumb retread he can manipulate.
I always wondered about the player coach relationship between Moore and Dak. Do you think Dak listens to Moore? Or is being coached by him?

Thats the problem. He looked like a genius against Tampa and then completely went away from what was working in that game and went back to vanilla curl routes and no creativity. Its been this way since Linehan was here. If it works. Change it.

Who knows, could be a thing but we know one thing, the QB needs diferent direction and the QB aint going anywhere for 2 years..so probably should try the one move you actually can make.
