Jalen Hurts may have taken over offensive play-calling in the second half against the Rams

I think that there's a chance that Jalen Hurts may have just taken over offensive coordinator. There was a point in the game where he got into [Kellen Moore's] face and started yelling at him... it seemed to go to the extent of we need to be more aggressive. And I think that there's a chance that the offensive play caller in the second half was Jalen Hurts.

While Hurts' aggressiveness helped, there is no official confirmation that play-calling duties were stripped from Kellen Moore.
