Kitna to be QB coach, Moore leading candidate for OC

[kumizi]

If this happens as purported it might, this is about as dysfunctional a situation as I've seen go down in the time that Garrett has been head coach.

If Moore is better than Linehan, how the hell do you not ALREADY come to that conclusion coinciding with letting Linehan walk?



This is sounding suddenly like they're scrambling... that, whoever they thought they were going to get to replace Linehan is not an option after all, and they're looking at Plans F, G and H at this point.

Hopefully, there's nothing to it.

You are correct. I said it in the Linehan firing thread. Even all the scrub offensive talent is already gone. Two guys who were McVay's water boys and haven't had any success calling plays already got head coaching jobs. A guy that couldn't win in college got a head coaching job. When all these scrubs are getting head coaching jobs, how exactly are you going to attract talent to be a coordinator for the Cowboys?

Kitna should have been hired over Moore last year.

You cannot make this crap up..

Yes you can

Godzilla will be the next head coach

RAAAAWWWWWRRRRRR

Jerry had to take playcalling out of Jason's hands. That is reason we had linehan. No future with this team.

 

[Mr_437]

To my surprise, I'd rather Moore or even Kitna calling the plays over JG.

I really like the Kitna move, yet would hope he could coach this season in the other league before joining the Cowboys so he could get that OC experience.

Kellen learned under Chris Petersen who I value way more than JG as a play caller, and off the strength of that... I perfer Moore calling plays.

I was kind of hoping for Terrance Williams to become Offensive Coordinator

 

[robbieruff]

Out of the fryin’ pan and into the fire...

 

[StuckMojo]

How'd that work out with Kiffin, Ryan, Linehan et al. All very experienced coaches.

I’m not asking for retreads but I would like someone with more than 1 year coaching experience

 

[ghst187]

I just threw up in my mouth...

 

[InTheZone]

is this a chance for Moore to become the next best young HC in a few years or is this going to flop hard in our faces?

 

[cern]

as spock would say, "fascinating". I can see it happening.

 

[shabazz]

If it happens its probably because of Daks input.

Can’t blame them for that. When the 23rd ranked quarterback that has a 1-2 playoff record talks, u better listen

The one thing I would say in defense of this is that changing offensive schemes on a young QB can set them back if not completely derail their chance for success.

The last 5 weeks Dak started attacking the sidelines in ways I hadn't seen the last two seasons for sure and there was tape showing him anticipating guys coming open. The worst thing might be bringing in a totally new system, though personally loved the idea of running the Rams scheme.

Maybe Moore adds enough newness that it fixes some of our issues without setting Dak back.

Thanks for posting this

 

[Philmonroe]

I am stoked for next season.

I'm not because now we will get more excuses for Alex. I wanted someone that would take all the excuses away for Alex if he plays avg again.

The thing is, we could easily run something philosophically similar to the Rams using the existing scheme. There’s absolutely nothing preventing that except an unwillingness to do so. We were edging closer to it when Callahan was running the offense, because they more or less come from the same coaching tree. I’m pretty certain McVay even learned a bit of what he does from Callahan.

 

[ItzKelz]

Cause it worked out so great last time. But maybe his training is now complete. We can hope.

I think it did. Let's not forget that JG made Felix look like a legit NFL RB. Fooled Cowboys Nation for awhile.

 

[Vintage]

Moore at least has been around a creative and innovative offensive mind.

 

[Cydios]

Someone explain the logic that i don't see

Not really. He was a good backup. But back in those days the FO didn't respect RB's. If we had a good one then maybe it would have made a difference. But with Garrett's coaching probably not.

I’m fine with kitna being a qb coach

I’m not fine with Moore being the oc

I like the idea of Kitna as QB coach....

Moore as OC? Why..... just why... bring back Linehan....
