Haha. I didn't notice that on his highlights, but I also haven't gotten deep into his tape.
I'll ride the wave...where it takes me.

I just need to see more of his tape.

i truly hope your correct. Pollard it the better Rb. EZ will be gone and Dallas willl retain and build around Dak. So my hope is Moore was not best fit for Daks style and will align better with a passing QB.
On owners and HC, you will need several more seasons and P.O. wins to debate that.

I’m not seeing the advantage of a wealthy owner in the two examples you provided though. Think about higher priced HCs for example and then look at some of the current winning HCs in the league. How many of them were originally high priced?
But let's use a real world example. In 2013 the Chargers needed a head coach. The Chargers hired Mike McCoy. The Chiefs hired Andy Reid. You can't tell me you thought Mac was a better hire than Reid. Dean has never hired a star HC and wouldn't have been able to hire Sean Payton, as many here wanted. Won't do it. Can't afford it.
Another example is building a stadium- look what Kreonke did, no way could Dean do that and it was a factor in the league going with Kreonke over Dean/Davis.
I will say that since Staley has been hired, the Spanos seemed to have had no problem hiring the coaches he wants, including a sports science director. Not to mention that they’re setting up a fancy new sports facility for the team. Player contracts don’t seem to be a problem either. If they want someone, they’ve paid them for good or bad as we’ve seen this past season.
EDIT: Clarity

"Since Staley was hired..." is faint praise. This year is an outlier as far as player moves. We'll see if they continue. I love the new training facility. I wonder who is paying for it?
EDIT: Clarity
As for Reid vs McCoy, it was unknown at the time who would be better. Reid had just crashed and burned the last two seasons with the Eagles. McCoy was viewed as the new hot upcoming OC. It didn’t work out for us unfortunately. A lot of people on this board wanted Urban Meyer since he was a winning HC, abeit in college, but he proved to be a horrible and expensive hire for the Jags.
As for stadiums, Kroenke is probably the only owner is the NFL who could do what he did. Every other owner, regardless of wealth, has gotten public financing for their stadium. It just is for good or bad.
Since you also brought up Kroenke, was he cheap since he only paid McVay $2 million a year when he first hired him in 2017?

Lots of good points. But Reid vs McCoy. I think you better rethink that.
