Bears hire Bieniemy as RB coach

[jjchieffan]

Back where he started with us. He was a really good running back coach. I'm sure that he will do great at Chicago. I remember Kareem Hunt's first game and how he fumbled his first snap. Beinemy was encouraging him and he ended up having a great game.

Agreed, he's a great addition as a RB coach

Position coach is where he belongs, he's just not an OC or HC

Was a pretty damn good OC for us.

Look, back when people were arguing for or against EB's case for a head coaching job, there were extreme arguments on both sides. A few nutsos thought EB was calling most of the plays. And you had the exact opposite as well where some people thought he was a complete puppet empty suit who served way more as a mascot than he did a coach.

Calling a coordinator a gofer just because he doesn't call the plays is ignoring all of the coaching, teaching, and prep that a coordinator does on a football team. It's reducing the duties and responsibilities to like 5% of the job and saying, "Well, because he didn't do that 5%, he did nothing." And it's honestly saying that EB had more power and say within the organization when he was a position coach than when he was the OC. At least as position coach, the only orders he took was what plays to teach. The rest was completely up to him.

Be reasonable, man. EB did a lot. Did just as much as Nagy, Childress, Doug, or any of his Philly OCs.

I'll give you this, he didn't do any more or less for us than all of those other guys

Because, again... its always been Andy Reid, then all of the other talking meatsticks in a lacky role

It’s always been fishy to me that Nagy and Pederson had no problems getting head coaching gigs but Beinemy did not.

But none of us have any idea how good/bad these guys interview and what exactly they do behind Reid.

I’ll just say that some of the guys hired ahead of Beinemy were complete jokes.
