The Magpies, on the other hand, have been left floundering in 13th place, with Jaissle furious with his players' failure to follow his game plan.
Moyes had been facing similar questions due to The Friedkin Group's situation at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, but the Toffees have done incredibly well so far.
Now, a day after the game, Football Insider has looked at five moments that fans may have missed during the 90 minutes.
Matthias Jaissle's instructions get tossed
Chasing the game at 1-0 down, Jaissle sent on new instructions with Fabian Schar, hoping to secure a very late equaliser against the Toffees.

The defender instantly ditched the piece of paper with the instructions on, with television cameras able to zoom in and see the new plans.
David Moyes joins players in the book
Several players ended up in John Brooks' notebook, but they weren't the only ones, as Moyes also saw his name taken by the referee.
Barry appeared to be taken down inside the penalty area in the second half, an incident which injured the striker, but no spot-kick was given.
An awful, awful challenge by Ramsey left the midfielder in a heap, but with Newcastle wanting to find an equaliser, Hall took matters into his own hands.
How he avoided a yellow card, well, only the referee can explain that.
Rather than go more attacking and chase a goal, Jaissle frustrated many by going like-for-like for his changes, and it was just more of what Howe used to do.
The two players seemed to be laughing at the situation, but deep down, there's clearly a resentment between the pair.
