This coach may just be the next HC of the Redksins
In a recent conversation with someone who knows Dan Snyder well and is aware of his thoughts on potential next #Redskins head coaches that any list of candidates would include: #Steelers HC Mike Tomlin, #Bucs DC Todd Bowles, #Chiefs OC Eric Bieniemy.
I disagree that the Chiefs should do anything. Kelces frustration looked to be about being way too tough on himself. Im not going to blame him for being too competitive. He seemed to lash out at bieniemy in an "I know I fucked up, I'm frustrated too" kinda way. Unless I hear otherwise I assume it's not a Marcus peters blowup.
I also don't want to talk about his antics in a prior life. He's matured a ton. He's not dancing around or doing that stuff. [Reply]
The problem is that the coach was getting up in his face and pushing his chest and shoulder into Kelce. Probably should be a talk to them both together to make sure they don't embarrass the team any more and give them both a warning. [Reply]

Bieniemys gotta do that. He can't just let his players get away with losing focus and making mistakes. And Kelce had a right to be frustrated. I don't blame either of the two for how they handled it. [Reply]
By the way, let's also talk about the leadership of mahomes. Mahomes kept throwing it to kelce. At one point kelce pointed at his chest as if to say thank you. [Reply]

Be a pro. And even if he didn’t, yes he should be fined. You can’t let your players know that it’s okay to shove coaches.
I'd want to be really careful with that kind of accusation. I think he's frustrated because defenses are pretty much mauling him at the line. I feel like defenses are kind of getting away with murder. He had that same flustered and exhausted look at the end of Detroit too. He's not taking plays off. Hes arguably working twice as hard as anyone right now. [Reply]
You tag him with a nominal fine, and Kelce apologizes to the team for putting his hands on a coach, and then you forget about it.
Football teams operate under a pack mentality, anyone who's been a part of one knows that. It's instinctual. There are alphas and Kelce is an alpha, but the coaches are the mentors (there's a proper name for this, but I can't remember it right now) of the pack. Kelce put his hands on a coach, which can't be tolerated. So you fine him $100 and have him apologize to the team, end of story. That sends the proper message to the young/new guys on the team, and it goes away. [Reply]
