And on Friday, they got involved in a virtual and interview with an old friend in Kellen Moore.<\/p>\n<p>Will their former offensive coordinator currently with the Philadelphia Eagles make the grade?<\/p>\n<p>A meeting that reportedly was to take about three hours concluded at 5:02 p;m. CT, with Moore moving on to turn his attention to both his collection of interviews and his preparation for his work with the Eagles in the playoffs against the Rams this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Kellen Moore spent eight seasons in Dallas as both a backup quarterback, quarterback coach, and play-caller.\u00a0He has plenty of connections in the room and is considered a top target for the team&#8217;s head coach opening.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"#DallasCowboys Fish at 6 Live: Top 10 Takes On NFL Coach Carousel\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/e4FeO8hs79U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, a Cowboys source confirmed to us the NFL.com report that has Dallas submitting an official interview request.<\/p>\n<p>And what did Moore think coming into the session?<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;d offered a 1-word take, relayed to Chase Daniel, the former NFL QB-turned-media guy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Excited,&#8221; is that take.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI spent a lot of time there, eight years there. So [I] have plenty of relationships in that place,\u201d Moore said earlier this week when asked to speak out about the Cowboys. \u201cI love it here. I&#8217;ve had so much fun here. It&#8217;s been a really fun process, and we&#8217;re in a really special situation right now, getting the chance to play this Sunday, having a chance to make a run at this thing, and that&#8217;s really all you worry about.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Moore has remained steadfast in focus on helping the Eagles reach the Super Bowl for the second time in three seasons. While their passing offense has struggled at times this season, their rushing attack has more than made up for it.<\/p>\n<p>And it&#8217;s that very rushing attack with a 2,000-yard runner in Saquon Barkley that has helped increase Moore&#8217;s chances of receiving a coaching job now that Dallas is looking for an opening.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"ac_96799761\" class=\"article_chunk type_51\"><center><\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1880390166457774265&amp;lang=vi&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fathlonsports.com%2Fnfl%2Fdallas-cowboys-issue-announcement-on-kellen-moore-in-coach-search-jerry-jones-deion-sanders&amp;sessionId=7b31949c79e4e397226ff3b1613d667ff580570d&amp;siteScreenName=yardbarker&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-gtm-yt-inspected-6=\"true\" data-tweet-id=\"1880390166457774265\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/center><\/div>\n<div id=\"ac_96799762\" class=\"article_chunk type_50\">\n<div class=\"froala-view custom-theme \">\n<p>Dallas has set up visits with Robert Saleh and Leslie Frazier.
