Doubters have surfaced for Cowboys' Kellen Moore. Here's why Dak Prescott, others in the NFL believe in his future.

ORLANDO - The Cowboys coaching staff has structured this week's NFC Pro Bowl practices similarly to how the team prepares during the season.

The biggest difference is that instead of Scott Linehan holding the play sheet in the offensive huddle, it's now Kellen Moore.

Moore, the Cowboys' first-year quarterback coach last season, appears to be the front-runner to take over as offensive coordinator, a week after Dallas parted ways with Linehan.

The possibility of elevating Moore is puzzling to some. He went undrafted in 2012 after going 50-3 as a starting quarterback at Boise State. Then, he played in only three games during a six-year NFL career that started with the Lions and ended with the Cowboys.
