Allbright has also mentioned that Bieniemy’s previous interviews have been poor. These poor interviews have likely caused him to fall out of consideration for certain positions in the past. Allbright mentioned that some teams with vacancies aren’t all that interested in Bieniemy. These historical poor interviews could be a big reason why.

I think there's a real decent chance Kafka is gone too. If we repeat and there's still openings left it might be a foregone conclusion.
I'm sure everyone is fine hiring Pederson to replace them but I'm not sure if he'll be available either. Nagy doesn't seem long for Chicago though. Wonder what the opinion is on him coming back..... [Reply]

Actually could be interesting for bieniemy to HC with Nagy as OC. Wouldn't trust either to run an offense but they might actually be good as a duo. [Reply]

The Bears are dumb.
Nagy managed a winning record and the playoffs in 2 out of 3 seasons with shit on offense, especially at QB. [Reply]
No clue if he’d be any good as hc and the offense doesn’t miss a beat here with or without him - which sounds like an insult but isn’t intended to be [Reply]

If teams are so concerned about his past, why the fuck does he get so many interviews?

There are plenty of black coaches getting interviews out there.
Is he a bad interview? I doubt it. Reid gets his guys hired, and it hasn't been an issue in the past for teams if they didn't know or understand what an OC actually does for Andy Reid.
Beyond that, none of you know the role he plays within the offense. All you can do is speculate. Just like all you can do is speculate about why Bieniemy hasn't gotten hired yet. Maybe it's all the things I listed above. Maybe it's because he's black.
Or maaaaaaaybe.... get this, guys.... maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe it's because if teams want to hire Bieniemy, they have to wait until the Chiefs are out of the playoffs, and for the past two seasons the Chiefs have played all the way through the conference championship weekend. There's a chance they have to wait up to 4 more weeks to bring in Bieniemy if he really is the guy.
Do you think maybe, just maybe THAT'S the reason why he gets passed over for jobs? [Reply]

The NFL media, including every single CBS, Fox, ESPN and NFL Network commentator, have been pushing Bieniemy as a head coach for nearly two years running.
This push hasn't been coming from inside the NFL but from broadcasters. [Reply]

If I were an NFL team looking for a head coach, and after doing some interviews decided EB was the one that really felt like the right fit, I'd wait. If what you're saying is true all the other teams are gonna snatch up guys who are already out of the playoffs anyway, so I'll have less competition to bid against. [Reply]
