Kellen Moore may have been a target for the Miami Dolphins but after the game he called against the 49ers on Saturday evening, Ross may want to rethink that.

Moore is considered an up and coming head coaching candidate who will draw interest around the league. He has done that. Teams can now hire him freely should they want him for their HC job because the Cowboys were bounced from the postseason and you have to question Moore directly for the reason.

Facing a six point deficit with no time outs and 14 seconds left on the clock, Moore, the Cowboys OC, called a QB draw that worked well except for the fact that they couldn’t get to the ball in time to get the spike and stop the clock. The game ended with Dak Prescott never firing a single ball into the end zone.

Say what you will but those are the types of plays that have killed the Dolphins over the years and the type of mentality that Miami doesn’t need. Whether or not it was Moore’s fault or the execution it was a dumb play.

Moore shouldn’t be removed from consideration for the job but he sure shouldn’t be the number one choice right now. Hence is lower rank.
