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.

He doesn't have a hand in it? He doesn't come up with some of the plays and concepts? He doesn't work with Patrick Mahomes in practice and during games?
Just because other people ALSO do those things doesn't mean he's nothing more than a RB coach with a bigger office.
Oh, wait, the Chiefs also have a RB coach. So I guess Eric Bieniemy is just a guy with a big office now. [Reply]

I still think he gets a job this time. NYJ hiring the San Fran guy makes that Detroit job wide open for EB.
Brad Holmes who they hired to be GM has massive ties to Brandon Staley... [Reply]

I've been keeping up on the Chiefs a lot during these Mahomes years. Not one person has done anything but speculated what Eric Bieniemy's actual duties are. [Reply]
EB has a Master's degree in offensive scheme, play design, and play-calling by now. He's been learning literally at the knee of the best offensive mind in the NFL for the last 20 years. He'd have to be a moron to the nth degree not to have picked up a huge amount of knowledge in all those things and more from Reid at this point. [Reply]

You’re right it’s speculation.
But it’s both ways.
Which means at the end of the day it’s a ?
That’s my entire point, I’m not saying he can’t do it, I’m just saying I don’t know if he can, so I can see why teams might feel that way. [Reply]

True. He mentioned him by name i think but Staley might have his pick of a few jobs. Im wondering if the Bolts go with him over Daboll or another offensive guy.
Detroit isn't as good of a job as the LAC or some other jobs to be available. [Reply]

All personal conduct issues aside, there were allegations of rape by kids that were under his charge. That shows a lack of leadership and control.
If you think NFL teams don't care about stuff like that, I got news for you.
There's no way you can believe that. Patricia actually raped someone and as been covered in this thread EB was an asst. The head coach is responsible for laying down the law. EB was the what, the recruiting coordinator?
There's no way the HC didn't know whatever happened. This is more of the Joe Pa like shit. Your program, you know whats happening. [Reply]

That doesn't absolve EB of blame in the eyes of many.
Again, this isn't my opinion. This is the reality of the world we live in. People are tried in the court of public opinion every day. [Reply]
