Colon Coward said something interesting in his show a few weeks back. If you have an elite QB, hire an offensive coordinator as their coach. Otherwise you would have the Bills' scenario with Daboll leaving for the Giants. I said the same thing when the idiot Spanos hired Staley. Herbert will go thru several OC changes during his career.
With Bienemy being the topic here, it's clear to all of us who follow the team that the guy just doesn't have it. He makes for a solid assistant coach but running a complex offense is not something he is fit for. You notice it during a press conference the way he speaks in such simple terms. Like a motivational coach of sorts. And it's precisely for this very reason he hasn't landed a HC job with any team he has interviewed. I like EB as a person. Just not as the OC scheming a complex offense of a perennial SB contender with arguably the greatest talent at QB in NFL history.
It's like the equivalent of having Mike Fratello be Michael Jordan's coach with the Bulls. Some guys are not cut up for that type of gig.
