Saquon Barkley: Shoutout to Kellen Moore, he stuck with the run

[BigD5]

Question is would Kellen Moore come back here if he's getting a lot of calls?

Dallas never has really paid their coaches top dollar. You got a 82 year old owner/GM who also acts like the Head Coach with the media.
Moore would be the OC in reality, but he'll need a DC. Is that a coordinator he can pick or will it be with strings?

MM came here cause he lied and this was probably one of the few franchises that had serious interest in him.
Before him it was Parcells who needed $ and Jerry had to sell a stadium.
Marshmellow Wade was happy to get a gig and then you had the HCIT with Garrett.

Jerry acts like the head coach?? No no no no no… Jerry IS the ACTUAL head coach of the cowboys

 

[Big_D]

No way in hell Kellen should come back here to work with the Ringling Brothers and Dak. He’ll have plenty of opportunities to find a much better situation without having these 2 idiots micro manage his every move.

Or he was smart enough to realize that everyone wants to run but if you don't have the personnel to do it then its kind of dumb. Moore ran the ball here when it was effective, but most of the time our OL couldn't create space to do it.

Well what about the times we were running the ball at 4, 5, and 6 yards a clip.... we get in short yardage situations like 2nd, 3rd, or 4th and short or goal to go and KM dumb *** calls 3 straight pass plays or tries some dumb *** reverse trick plays?

When we had that same personnel who averaged 5 yards a run, what does common sense tell you to do on short yardage situations? Kellen Moore was too stupid to stick to the run when the opposition couldn't stop it.

He gets no excuses for that.

Perhaps when he is working with a head coach who isn’t a dumb *** he makes more prudent decisions.

In not so shocking move, Cowboys name Kellen Moore, head coach in 2025

He won't come here and would be a fool to even consider the offer knowing its Yes man Job.

 

[khiladi]

So Kellen Moore's dumb *** finally learned to stick with the run when the opposition can't stop it? That's new!!

You clearly didn’t watch his time with the Cowboys.. we always ran a lot, generally top 10 in most rushing categories. Can’t help it if dummy taking the snap is totally useless from underneath the center.

Why didn't Kellen Moore "the wonder boy" get the Chargers HC job last year?

 

[jgboys1]

Huh???

I was just saying this because Daktoids like to blame everyone but Dak!

Its always the OC. the HC, the players, etc. Its never Dak's fault!

 

[Blue&Silver]

I am starting to think Kellen could be at the top of Jerry's list to replace MM. He has gone from Tony Romo's backup to Dak's QB coach, to Dak's OC, to the Charger's OC, and now the Eagles' OC.

He's starting to look at lot like Jerry's type of hire.....lol

Your post might be sarcasm, but it could be a reality. You do make a solid point.

 

[Aven8]

I just don’t see Kellen as a leader of men.

IDK.....there are different types of leaders but I agree. Perhaps there is a side of him we can't see .......

Funny how they always "learn" when they leave here.

Maybe the problem was being here.

 

[AtomicDog]

Coordinator blessed with elite talent at every position gets praised.

I don't understand the criticism. Moore did the same thing here when we had talent.

Well he apparently didn't learn it in L.A. either.... he only lasted a few minutes with the Chargers.

Saquan got 71 yards (plus the TD) on his last 8 carries in the fourth quarter. Finished with 107 yards on 23. They seem to be doing that quite a bit this season. He probably just has more trust in the running game than the passing game there.

The offense in Dallas was stronger in pass blocking as Zeke aged, and I’m sure there was pressure from the Jones to get more production from Dak’s arm considering what they paid. Two different dynamics. No one in Philly’s management cares if Hurts puts up big or even mediocre numbers as long as the team keeps winning-except Hurts probably.

Dude in Miami does ok and seems to have similar characteristics as Kellen. Could be wrong though.

I definitely watched his time with the Cowboys and remember many times that our running backs were gutting opposing defenses for chunk yards and in that same game, Kellen Moore would call pass plays on short yardage situations.

Kellen Moore always tried to get cute and slick when he didn't have to be. If your running back is averaging 5 yards a pop all game and you come into a short yardage or goal line situation from 2 yards away.... what do the intelligent coaches do? What does common sense tell you to do?

That's right!! Run the damn ball!!

Kellen Moore was not intelligent enough to make the right "in-game" adjustments and he had very weak "situational awareness" when he was with us. To me he was the dumbest offensive coordinator in the league at that time.

 

[KingCorcoran]

Cowboys fans are not familiar with hiring a new head coach and allowing the new head coach to choose his own coaching staff. It’s because that’s now how Jerry Jones runs his franchise. Moore may not be a “Harbaugh guy”, just like Jerry Jones may not be a “Kellen Moore guy”.

If Kellen Moore was a great coordinator.... do you think Harbaugh would have just let him walk out the door?

 

[tyke1doe]

Is it me or does it seem like almost everyone who sucks when they're in Dallas leaves to have success with other franchises?
