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.

That's because he realized that Parcells was still going to be involved in personnel decisions and he said to himself NOPE. And yes he made the right decision because it is a proven fact in the last 20yrs Bellichek has a genius knack for finding talented lunch pale no-name guys who can play who are smart and love the game.:-) [Reply]
I wonder who would join Bienemy on his offensive staff? Would any Chiefs coaches leave with him or would they all look to move up here? Or would he have to hire someone that doesn't get the OC job in KC? I'd guess he'd try to hire a long-tenured DC that could basically run that side of the ball. [Reply]

Seriously. You've got to be a bot. Nobody ever speaks in this many cliches in a genuine unironic way. [Reply]

I think some of you are underestimating EB’s role in this offense just because he didn’t create it.
Well no shit. Guess what? By that same logic neither did Andy Reid. You think he drew up every single fucking play in that playbook? He didn’t borrow ANYTHING from his own mentors and colleagues? Yeah, this isn’t Montana’s WCO but you think it’s so different that for all intents and purposes the Chiefs are running the Fried Cheeseburger Offense created entirely by Andy Reid? And even if they were doing that, you think Bieniemy has created/added/edited/contributed to precisely ZERO percent of this offense?
For fucks sake. We’ve gone from acknowledging that Bieniemy doesn’t call plays in game day to speculating that he essentially has a coaching role of LESS importance to the team than his old spot as RB coach. Like he’s some goddamn coffee wench in a French maid outfit.
God, people. Love him or hate him, Doug Peterson has won a Super Bowl, and that’s with having less coaching experience and diversity in the teams and roles he’s served than Bieniemy. You think he was a better HC candidate because Andy let him call plays for half a season? [Reply]

Quit with all this EB negativity, we’re tryna hype dude up so we can get our extra 2 3rd round picks. EB is a fucking god!!! [Reply]

Also, he has some personal baggage.
