Saints' Kellen Moore Reacts to Fight-Filled Joint Practice
Tuesday's joint practice between the New Orleans Saints and Dallas Cowboys was interrupted by several fights.
On Tuesday, the joint practice between the New Orleans Saints and Dallas Cowboys was marred by several fights. Nevertheless, Saints head coach Kellen Moore appeared unperturbed by the chaotic atmosphere. "All the chippiness of it, not the ideal flow of a joint practice, but we got the work we need," Moore stated to ProFootballTalk.
Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer, on the other hand, was visibly disappointed by the incessant fighting, remarking that he was "disappointed in the amount of productive work that got done." Moore and Schottenheimer previously worked together as assistants for a year in Dallas back in 2022. "Schotty and I communicated, we know each other from working in the past, so we communicated," Moore explained.
"There’s a lot of rah-rah and emotion to football, and that’s part of it. At the end of the day it’s about executing and running football plays. There’s a lot of loud people on a football field but at the end of the day it’s about executing football plays," he emphasized. "Take all the emotion out of it, watch it without all the rah-rah to it and we’ll get some good lessons." The Saints are set to clash against the Cowboys in an upcoming preseason game on August 28.
