Anticipated Changes Under Eagles’ New Offensive Coordinator Kellen Moore.

An Analysis of Potential Adjustments to Philadelphia’s Offense in 2024.
The Eagles made it official by announcing Kellen Moore as their new offensive coordinator earlier this week. Personally, I welcomed the announcement, having spent the last three days immersing myself in Kellen Moore’s coaching style. The extensive film study I conducted will be broken down into a series of posts, each delving into various aspects of Moore’s offensive philosophy, rather than being presented in one lengthy article. In this series, I aim to explore his strategies, strengths, and weaknesses comprehensively.

Let’s begin by examining the fundamental tendencies of a Kellen Moore-led offense, as revealed by Sports Info Solutions (and via @TheHonestNFL).

Here are some insights gleaned from the numbers:

– Due to the Chargers’ limited run game, Moore’s play-action usage was significantly curtailed compared to his previous coaching stints.
– Motion remains a consistent feature in Moore’s offensive schemes.
– While with the Cowboys, Moore was willing to run plays into stacked defensive boxes, a strategy he abandoned during his tenure with the Chargers.
– Moore’s performance metrics vary yearly, suggesting that his philosophy is influenced in part by the capabilities of his players.
– In the past two years, Moore’s gap scheme utilization in the run game has increased compared to earlier seasons.
– Notably, Moore’s offenses consistently excel in the no-huddle offense, with a remarkable 6th ranking in no-huddle success rate even during a subpar offensive season.
– He favored under-center formations more prominently with the Cowboys than with the Chargers.

Furthermore, a compelling interview on the Chargers’ website from last year provides additional insight into Moore’s vision for the offense. Here are some notable quotes:

“From an offensive perspective, you take bits and pieces from everyone, and I think that’s the beauty of it,” Moore remarked. “We’re going to build a 2023 L.A. Chargers offense. Will you be able to see the Air Coryell, Jason Garrett side? Absolutely. Will you see the West Coast, Mike McCarthy side? Absolutely…We’ll keep things that are in place here that Justin Herbert feels really, really good about.”

Moore emphasized the importance of adaptability within the run game and the need to make adjustments based on defensive looks throughout a game.

Expressing excitement about working with the players, Moore emphasized the goal of crafting a system tailored to their strengths and preferences, while striving to maintain complexity for opposing defenses.

Overall, Moore’s approach, characterized as ‘aggressive and adaptable’ by Brett Kollmann, aligns well with what Nick Sirianni aims to achieve on offense. Moore’s system appears to be structured yet flexible, tailored to the strengths of the personnel available to him. In the upcoming posts, we will delve into the key aspects of Moore’s offensive scheme.
