A shame as I like Kellen Moore.

Damn, would’ve liked Moore.

That weird wording makes it sound like the Eagles are hiring him…

Kellen Moore is my top choice. Would be happy with that

Vince McMahon is the main reason I lost interest in scripted wrestling decades ago.  It was always obvious the guy was a scumbag.  He had vision, though.  Bought up or drove out most of the independent promotions and took the industry national, then international.

I preferred watching WCW and ECW in the 90s.  Unfortunately, Bischoff was incompetent and let his "guys” run things as far as bookings, etc.  He was given a blank check by Turner to buy the superstar talent, but didn’t have the managerial ability to keep it thriving long term.

RTK is taking a stab at Eskin.  (Basically saying anything Eskin reports never ends up happening)

Well, if Eskin says so …….

One yawn candidate of many tbh. One of the many reasons Sirianni should have been fired. Could get a real offensive mind in here, which you aren't going to get with the position they're in.

Could this be good or bad?    Generally speaking... when we bring in a Dallas player, it turns out poorly.  Moore didn't play for the Cowboys, but coached them.   Where does that put us?

When we bring in ex Chargers OCs good things happen

Moore is a proven commodity 

Moore has the best history of play calling of any candidate out there. 

I know everyone is going to hate it just because its eagles news and most people seem to hate anything the eagles do these days. But Kellen Moore is the candidate that checked the most boxes that this thread came up with. 

As a brief refresher, he is said to utilize a lot more motion, as well as play action. While still running RPOs and zone runs. So a mix of what we already do, combined with the main things we have been wanting the team to do more of. 

People wanted someone with experience calling an O. He has that as well.

Agreed. 

Will repost this

From checking Chargers reddit, this was the consensus on Moore:

Play calling got conservative in the 2nd half and in tight games

Would go back to the same play call multiple times per game no matter how many times it didn't work

Offense got stale and predictable and didn't adjust as the season progressed

Would force square pegs into round holes

They were excited to see him go. Take it FWIW.

I love it.  He was the most proven NFL play caller available.

Funny thing is if you go back in history I remember them saying the same type of things about Steichen and he didn't even have the prior success with another team

Kellen Moore talking about what his plan is with the Chargers offense.

This is what every NFL fan thinks of their team's offense if it isn't flat out dominant.

Well, Hurts is Dak with balls.

One of the things I saw from a brief skim of Chargers reddit is they said Cowboys fans tried to warn us about Moore but we didn't listen, but everything they warned us about turned out to be true.

But it really is hard to judge coordinators. Not everything is 2+2=4 and it's much more complicated and a lot of success and failures are very circumstantial. Though I will say the best Herbert looked was under Steichen. He looked much better under him than under Moore.

But it's not like there was some amazing candidate out there that the Eagles could get.

Baldy breakdowns showing a lot of Dallas' pre-snap motion with Kellen Moore.

not sure Hurts can be Dak at all. But we will find out it Eskin for once is right.
