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’m convinced Bieniemy is going to get the Texans job.
1. He’s by far the best candidate for a job nobody really wants. Are they really going to go with Leslie Frazier?
2. He’s the only way the Texans can fix the current mess they’re in and make their franchise QB happy again.
3. I just don’t see them doing all of this only to not hire him. Their QB AND their fans want Bieniemy. Could you imagine the backlash if they don’t?
4. Kafka was a candidate for the Seahawks OC job, which still hasn’t been filled, so why the report that he’s coming back? Wouldn’t that make sense if he knows he’s going to get the OC job here?
5. Watson calling for people not to protest? Maybe he knows Bieniemy is going to get the job and is trying to cool things down? [Reply]

That's a good question. They should get the comp picks for him I'd think. I wonder how that works. Is it anyone not white? They don't have to be just black do they? [Reply]

I think everybody is aware that’s the argument, but it doesn’t make it a good one.
And ignoring that a minority HC was hired still goes to show there’s only 1 minority that they actually care about. [Reply]
Everybody thought Daboll was head to LA and they hired Staley.
At the end of the day, Patriot Way is Patriot Way. EB isn't going to the Texans unless they've sold their Pats allegiance to appease Watson, which would be nothing short of a miracle (and not the kind Easterby peddles). [Reply]

There are no longer any Patriot Way candidates for the job. Daboll isn’t even a candidate. [Reply]
