League sources believe Chiefs' OC Eric Bieniemy will emerge as a head-coaching candidate for USC. Bieniemy is from Southern California and has told confidantes in the past, that USC is one of the only college jobs that might interest him.

I dont know the whole story with Pederson but he won a SB and had a QB that apparently didn't want to run his offense, the offense that just won a SB with a different QB.
That QB is now on the Colts and is 1-3 on a team that was 11-5 with Rivers. [Reply]

It's not his resume, which is impeccable. The last two guys who served in his position in KC received HC jobs, one of whom won a Super Bowl.
Is it the DWI and stalking/harassing women stuff? 🤔 I that was all when he was in college, which was like 30 years ago...
I have no idea. I look around every year and see NFL teams hiring straight-up clowns. Inexcusably bad hires. Over, and over, and over. Maybe teams that suck enough to need a new head coach aren't being run by the world's brightest minds. [Reply]

He also got zero leash after winning a SB with a back up qb. [Reply]
Todd Haley was an absolute ape at press conferences. That guy was a brilliant interviewer, I'm sure. Mhmm... yuuuuuuup.
Coaches are meatheads, guys. Enough with this interview bullshit. Andy Reid knows how to get his guys jobs and prepares them accordingly for those positions. We've seen Bieniemy speak. He doesn't mince words.
It's probably his background that teams are concerned about. [Reply]

If teams were concerned about his background then why the hell would they even offer him an interview? There's plenty of other black guys out there to satisfy the Rooney rule. It's not like this is some random job interview where the league doesn't know about his past. [Reply]

Shorter routes, shorter drops for Mahomes, backs and TEs staying in to block...there's all kinds of shit that could've been done. Todd Bowles changed his defense completely for the Super Bowl to keep Hill and Kelce from doing to them what they did on Halloween, Reid and EB should've adjusted. [Reply]
