Bieniemy Had Been 'Top Candidate' For Patriots Prior to McDaniels Hiring

Thought a few people in here would find this interesting:

Is it too late to change?? I feel like bait a switch Mayo.

 

[Vindicate]

I wonder what led them to their decision; what they saw on McD over EB. Would've been nice to have that game planning and some Chiefs intel

I agree.

 

[RobertWeathers]

F-that.

Andy Reid is the OC in KC.

 

[PatsFan2]

Eric Sleeping with Bienemy.

Reid called the plays not Bienemy. Based on that I think McD was the right choice. Not to mention however much people around here make fun of Josh's HC stints its still experience that Bienemy just doesn't have.

 

[Brotherblues]

Is this like when the Eagles said Mayo was one of their top candidates?

 

[Disco Volante]

Who the hell would want Bieniemy over McDaniels?

McDaniels was much more important to the Pats than Bieniemy was to the Chiefs.

Hopefully this is just some virtue signaling by the Pats

Bieniemy has had a ton of interviews. There's gotta be a reason that guy doesn't get hired. He's gone from flavor du jour to oh-ya-we-interviewed-this-guy-too status. Don't get it. Seems to have really fallen out of favor.

It's been said he's a poor interview and that some off field issues that are decades old have held him back.

Saw this yesterday, was very happy they went elsewhere.

 

[Froob]

Not saying the guy sucks, but it’d be awfully hard to look bad with Reid calling the plays and Mahomes at QB. Pass..

 

[mike_usagisan]

We dodged a bullet there. This guy has had no success since leaving Reid and it's questionable how much success he had with Reid..

 

[UGAPatsfan]

This reeks of agent spin

 

[rkarp1]

no reflection on the O/P posting, but I simply do not believe it.
Bienemy flamed out big in Washington in less than 1 year, and over stayed his welcome at UCLA in less than 1 year.
question being if Nagy is/was going to get a HC job (maybe N.O.?) would Bienemy be welcome back in KC? I believe not

That would have been exceeding disappointing

 

[bakes781]

Yeah I had mentioned that earlier in the week on the Vrabel thread

 

[everlong]

I have to wonder if the Pats spun this out there because of how they handled the Rooney rule interviews with the head coaching process.
