You're right, but it's about time we started to scheme to hide our deficiencies as other teams seem to do against us....especially if this guy is supposed to be some sort of 'genius' and/or considered as a HC.

If the OL is that bad, yeah....there isn't much that can be done.

But don't try to pull a Garrett (his mentor) and just 'do what you would do anyway,' because that's not gonna cut it.

They played in Atlanta with Green as if Tyron was still there. Gave him no help and had no shot at adjusting....that staff was that bad.

I'll believe we have something different when I see it.

I just have little faith Moore what do what he needs to. Which is feature Pollard in the run game by attacking the edges. Pitch outs, 12 personnel outside runs. If he features zeke up the middle it wont work.

Probably not. The original point is that he needs to figure it the hell out.

Your point was that he may have a tough time if the OL stinks.

Neither of those are wrong. I just don't really like the guy and I don't have much faith in him. He is a Jerry handpicked guy who happened to be hanging around as a 3rd string QB. His "talent" as an OC IMO is nothing more than Jerry sales BS.

I'd love nothing more than for him to prove me wrong. Now seems like a pretty ok time to do that.

How quickly you forget our offense under Garrett.

Ehh...for me, the Moore offense is the Garrett offense with some gadget plays added.....like reverses inside the five and WRs catching passes downfield and trying to fling it to someone else.

I'm unimpressed. Kellen Moore is nothing but Jerry wanting to maintain a semblance of control over things. The only OC in here in forever with prior experience has been loser Linehan. The learn on the job crap is old....and back to the original point....let's see what this guy has already, if anything.

If he is worth anything at all, we will find out now.

Not sure which side you're on sometimes.

Then you clearly forget. Garrett didn’t even know what play action was. Wr screens, crossing patterns. Didn’t know what a screen was. Rarely called the deep ball. Didn’t know what 4 wr sets were.

We don’t know if this team is good, bad or ugly. We haven’t even seen them play yet. All the talking heads are questioning the offensive line. All the pundits are questioning the receivers. Are they right? They don’t know because this team hasn’t even played a game yet. Parcells said you don’t know who you are until Thanksgiving. I guarantee you that what everyone is saying now about the teams strengths and weaknesses will change by years end. So quit listening to these people saying the Cowboys have a great defensive line group or the Cowboys are weak on the offensive line. They don’t know. None of us do and we won’t until November.
That's what makes sports popular...the unknown every year.

Moore Desperately needed to be a position coach for a few years. He was not close to ready to be an OC. Who knows what he will be, he's just a baby.

We do know, actually. And they are ugly. We can tell from the front office, roster, and the choices they make.

it’s moreso the fact that no one here wants to admit that the team is ugly that makes you ask the question “we don’t know if this team is good bad or ugly”. We know. And every team and fan of other team knows. We’re just blind to it because we don’t want to see it.
