Part 1 of What to anticipate from Kellen Moore, the new offensive coordinator for the Eagles
I believe that a major, major component of Kellen Moore’s offense is his run game. Some of the things I’ve read regarding his seeming lack of a run game have left me rather shocked. It’s absurd. I believe that the performance of his Cowboys run game is the primary distinction between their attack and that of the Chargers. His run game differs greatly from the Eagles’ run game, which is incredibly intriguing. There are a lot of Shanahan inspirations in Kellen Moore’s run game. Under center outside zone is the standard run play, something the Eagles haven’t done much of lately.
