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.

Yeah I don't buy it either. Does anyone believe Todd Haley was a strong interview? [Reply]

Ya it sucks and we are going to hear the predictive narrative about race but if he doesnt get a job this year isnt it pretty damn telling about those skeletons in the closet?
Off the top of my head I cant think of 1 NFL hire that had a past like that maybe someone can correct me. I wasnt aware of his background til a few weeks ago my first thought was Mike Price but even Price was a HC when all of that shit happened [Reply]

Theres not a coach more respected in the league than Reid. When Pederson took over the play calling it was speculated Reid was doing it to help him get the job. Again you cant just ignore Bienemys past background. [Reply]

Why are you pushing the sexual misconduct line when it was the STUDENTS who were accused and not HIM? smh get a damn grip man and stop with the bs. Matt Patricia was INVOLVED in a SERIOUS case where he was accused of RAPE and the case is still iffy today and yet he got the Lions job. EB had a past full of minor issues and has been clean of problems for several years but that should be a reason he doesn't get hired? That's dumb logic and one of the several double standards that minorities have to face. EB's CV is way above the likes of Judge with the Giants, Taylor at Cinci, Le Fluer when he was with the Titans etc so I don't want to hear excuses. If he doesn't get a job this time around then it will be clear why he didn't and it will make headlines for sure. [Reply]

It could also be that EB has a very specific way he wants to build the team, or maybe it's his potential coaching staff, or maybe he isn't going to take lower tier salary like first time head coaches do, or he wants specific protections in his contract so he doesn't get the Caldwell treatment.
If Patrick Mahomes believes in EB enough to put his name behind him for HC, that's what teams should be focusing on. Unless the team he is interviewing for is the Broncos, most fan bases don't know and probably don't care about his past.

That won't be the reason. That's what the media will run with because their only good at sowing dissent. He won't get the job because some team went with the more qualified person. But you know the media will run with the race angle. :-) [Reply]
