Grading Mike McCarthy’s offensive staff: Why keeping Kellen Moore at OC is a win-win for the Cowboys - John Owning, DallasNews.com
Mike McCarthy is a wet coast offensive guru; Kellen Moore is not. Could the two combine to create a unique hybrid system?
While conspiracy theories abound about Jerry Jones forcing Mike McCarthy to retain Kellen Moore as offensive coordinator and allow him to call plays, the fact of the matter is that it was the best move for the team.
Moreover, McCarthy’s selfless move to keep the offensive language the same, putting the onus on himself to learn the terminology rather than forcing all the players to do so, shows humility and adaptability from a coach who was often viewed as stubborn.
