With the Dallas Cowboys on the verge of promoting offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer from within in the wake of Mike McCarthy being let go, here is why Dallas must consider hiring Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore instead.

Schottenheimer has emerged as a strong candidate for the opening after undergoing a pair of interviews with Cowboys brass this week.

Brian Schottenheimer appears to be furthest along the road to a job offer, but Kellen Moore is more widely regarded around the league as a play-caller who is adapting to league trends.
