One of the more dominating storylines this offseason for the Cowboys has been their offense and the changes being made with head coach Mike McCarthy taking over play-calling. Brian Schottenheimer has replaced Kellen Moore, and Mike Solari has replaced Joe Philbin coaching the offensive line, filling the same role he held in Seattle when Schottenheimer ran the offense there.
McCarthy, Schottenheimer, and Solari have been rather tight-lipped on exactly what they’re changing, though we’ve gotten a pretty good idea from training camp practices and the preseason. It’s a mix of what the team was already doing, conceptually speaking, under Moore, and the principles of the West Coast offense that McCarthy has always run.
