Nothing with a one legged QB ....... Dak is done physically just like Romo in 2016.
How much you want to bet his first comments come March or April are that he's in the best shape of his life? And he will follow it up with his annual 'time to go for a super bowl' comment he's made annually and never follows through.

Martin doesn’t get a push anymore and Steele hasn’t been the same since the injury. Could see us drafting a RT. I do wonder if our current OL coach is part of the problem though.
Might be a good idea to draft a true left tackle and move Tyler Guyton to RT. Although Steele has been a bit better over recent weeks.

The Cowboys are always high in penalties going back many years (and coaches), and MM's teams in Green Bay weren't heavily penalized.

Anyway, Kellen wouldn't bring anything special. We've already seen him here. He would only be here because he's Dak's BFF and Jerry would be comfortable with him.

Also because Jerry can pull his strings and still be the big man making decisions.

When he was here years ago, we chased him out due to his predictable play calling, trick plays, and failure to run the ball. Now all of a sudden because he has a STUD at running back, and 2 really good WR's, we think he's a great fit to come back and run this offense? I don't see where all the love is coming from for it, please don't let his stars confuse you on the stars that we DON'T have on this team. All we have going for us right now is Ceedee Lamb........

So I ask you, what could he do for this offense, that he didn't do when he was here previously?? Please give your thoughts
Yawwwwnnnn....damn, I don't feel like sharing thoughts....gonna take a nap.

Get a decent QB prospect first, and then a proper coach might matter.

Philly is better than us with every single positional group on offense and defense. They're DRASTICALLY better in some (RB, OL, DT, CB, S, QB,....and at worst just somewhat better in others. Yhe only advantage we have is kicker (although their kicker has been in probowls) and kick returner.

The only thing KM changes is reducing the weight on the Cowboys flights by 200 or 300 lbs. That WOULD save Jerry 2 or 3 dollars on every team flight....so that may be enough to get him hired.

It's hard to really say what Moore would do as head coach. Would he run his offense? Would Dallas bring in a coordinator? How much say would he have over personnel? How about over his staff?

Some coordinators have shown that they can run the whole thing and some have flamed out when given that responsibility. But if Moore was hired, that doesn't mean he'd be running the offense. For what it's worth, I don't even know how much say he has over the offense in Philly.

If we were healthy at corner, I'd give us the advantage with Diggs, Bland and Lewis, but unfortunately, we have not been healthy at corner for two years.

Dak+Kellen+Zeke+various good receivers couldn't get it done. Sometimes certain combos just don't work. Kellen and Dak can't get it done together. We've seen that dance, or do you not recall? Any time the defense struggled, the offense could NOT step up against good teams to overcome it.

If he says that, some reporter needs to ask him why this year will be different.

- Kellen Moore's offense was much more effective in the Red Zone than what is McCarthy's offense.

- Moore's offense presented more option routes and push the ball downfield than McCarthy's dink and dunk stop/comeback style WCO, imo

- I believe Kellen offense would have brought out the skill set of speedy WR Brandin Cooks who McCarthy has totally mis-schemed him since he arrived via trade.

- But for those who witness KM flaws will do to remember how he tends to be so pass aggressive that he would abandon the run .. at the wrong time situation of the game.
Kellen - much like Mc
Carthy, didn't seem to fancy involving the RBs into the pass game .

- What occasionally worked with KM, for some odd reason, he would just totally stop it ...forget it ,,and we would never see it again . Ala Jet Sweeps.- wheel routes, etc.

Well, for one; we could stop wasting roster spots on those people that they call "running backs." We could just go 3 WR and 2 TE on every play.
