DALLAS (105.3 The Fan) - The Dallas Cowboys have one of the most talented coaching staffs in the NFL, and one of the top names from that staff is now in danger of being lured away from Arlington.
On Tuesday, the Jacksonville Jaguars reportedly requested permission from the Cowboys to interview both offensive coordinator, Kellen Moore, and defensive coordinator, Dan Quinn, for their recently vacated head coaching position, previously held by Urban Meyer.
Meyer was fired early this month for his poor performance on the field, with embarrassing allegations from former players also surfacing after his exit.
Under Moore's direction, the Cowboys offense has been one of the most explosive in the NFL for the majority of this season, culminating in a 56-14 blowout of the Washington Football Team on Sunday.
As it stands, the Cowboys currently rank No. 1 in the NFL in total offense, averaging 409.5 yards per game, as well as No. 1 in scoring offense, where they average more than 30 points per contests.

The Dallas offense also ranks No. 3 in passing yards and No. 6 in rushing yards through the first 15 games, despite injuries and set backs across their skill positions and offensive line.
On the defensive side under Quinn, Dallas has seen a major resurgence in 2021, scoring six defensive touchdowns, forcing a league high 33 turnovers (25 interceptions), and sitting seventh in the league in points against at just 20.5 points per game.
Dallas also has 31 sacks on the season, including 13 from rookie Micah Parsons.
The Jaguars have also requested permission to speak with other top assistants across the league including Tampa Bay's Byron Leftwich and Todd Bowles.
