RELEASED Kellen Moore won't return

[GoldenR]

"The problem with Moore is he tried to make Prescott an NFL QB."

True.

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

All the best Garrett , i mean Kellen !

 

[Lodeus]

It's the QB Coach's fault too.

Everyone but the 40 million dollar stiff.

Dak is going to be exposed next season. Next offseason should be fun.

 

[USArmyVet]

So why they did fire him if he’s so good?

...because with the BS contract Jerry gave to POS Prescott they had to find a scapegoat for how bad Dak is at QB.

What did Moore do wrong ? I’ll hang up and listen …

The Cowboys finished fourth in the NFL in scoring during the regular season with an average of 27.5 points. They did this even though Prescott missed five games with a broken thumb on his throwing hand.

Dallas led the league in scoring the previous year with an average of 31.2 points, scoring a franchise record 530 points.

What have they done when it counts with that high octane offense? 12 points,wow outstanding.

 

[john van brocklin]

A change is needed all right. Not the one I had in mind necessarily.

The other has an immovable contract

 

[Reality]

NFL Media: "Eagles are going to the Super Bowl."

Jerry: "Hold my Johnnie Walker."

NFL Media: "Bigger story! Cowboys have fired Kellen Moore!"

 

[Clove]

So this is what I predicted. I predicted that Jerry would do something extreme, and draft well, maybe even a small trade, and fans will be ready for Oxnard. And about this time next year, "hopefully not" we'll be here talking about who sucked this year and what new TE we'll draft.

 

[Cydios]

Who's in the running?

 

[TheCritic]

"The problem with Moore is he tried to make Prescott an NFL QB."

I wouldn't go that far. I think Dak can be made to be successful in a run-first style of offense and get some WRs that can separate. This isn't hard.

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Dumb


Really dumb

Lol call different plays and the team will magically get good .

The calls were fine, execute better.

 

[noshame]

Kellen will probably be a charger within 48 hours
Imagine going from Prescott to Herbert lol

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Honestly, and I have said this before.........this is more about opportunities for Kellen IMO. It has nothing to do Dak or him being the scapegoat but more about the dozen or more open OC jobs out there. He only had one year left on his contract vs getting a new 3-year contract as OC for another team. I doubt Jerry was willing to match that opportunity enough to keep him. Notice it says both parties mutually agreed....in other words, excellent chance for a clean break. Kellen gets a chance at another OC job and more security for his family.

 

[The Quest for Six]

Quinn stays
Moore goes

Couldn't be a better start to the offseason

 

[CTcowboy203]

Well we all need to be careful what we wished for (those who wanted a change) and shout out to those who said Jerry would never fire kellen

 

[NoLuv4Jerry]

I’m glad Moore is gone and this seems like the logical step. Just not sure how I feel about McCarthy calling plays AND managing the game at the same time. Should be interesting.

Not sure if you are trying to be funny....but Mike managing the game?

Quinn has the defense on lock

Special teams has a coach

As the play caller...he will have a pulse on when to go for it on 4th down....when to throw the challenge flag...but more importantly....when a game requires you to not get too pass happy.

 

[Gonzomandela01]

Last hurra for Big Mike, I respect him going out swinging.
P.S.

 

[Rockport]

I know one thing for sure. Kellen Moore is a lot better at what he does than Dak Prescott is at whatever he's trying to do.

It's not even close.

Yeah and you said Wentz was the 2nd coming so excuse us for not believing you.

 

[CWR]

West Coast offense with a lot of motion, crossing routes, screens and zone runs. Curious to see how Prescott takes to a new system. Also curious if Big Mike asks for a young QB to be drafted.

Been begging for this for awhile. Let MM do his thing.

 

[phildadon86]

Not a single poster on here can even put into words what was wrong with the plays called, they aren't educated enough on schemes or plays in general. The moment the offense doesn't put the arbitrary yards/points they have in their head, the next OC will be on the chopping block.

Kurt Warner, babe and Bill parcells all showed us what was wrong with the offense. But sure. We know more than them I’m assuming?
