Dak Prescott Shoots Down Idea Cowboys Are Using Kellen Moore's Boise State Signals...Sort Of
By Mark Powell
Despite previous rumors that the Cowboys are using OC Kellen Moore's Boise State signals at the line of scrimmage, Dak Prescott is here to quell that thought...sort of.
Prescott didn't flat-out deny that much of the Saints defensive success against the Dallas offense several weeks ago was due to their studying Moore's college film, but his response suggests the Cowboys QB is okay with spreading that narrative.
Dak Prescott on whether the Cowboys use Boise State signals: “Right? Keep writing about that please. Tell them we’re using Mississippi State signals please.”

Prescott is not wrong here. Whether the Cowboys were using Boise State signals or not, it's unlikely that's still the case. If the Saints did get a head start in scouting Moore's offense due to his college days, the coaching staff likely caught on to this phenomenon and switched up the signals, meaning any opposing team watching said film would actually be doing itself a disservice.

Either Prescott is one step ahead, or he's hoping the Jets don't call his bluff this Sunday.
