Official: Chiefs name Eric Bieniemy new Offensive Coordinator

[TigeRRUppeRRcut]

As long as he is aggressive and can tell Andy to quit it with the cute shit

[KCBOSS1]

Underwhelming

Guess I figured Bevell wouldn’t be settling for less than OC.

And he'd probably want to call plays, y'know?

Good point. A non-starter even if he wasn’t already cock-blocked by Bieniemy.

Working for Andy Reid boosts a coach’s career trajectory

Yup. Reid wants the credit. As soon as his coordinator gets hot, Reid finds him a job in a different division .

Been that way since Jon ****ing Assface ****y Gruden.

How many years has it been since you were confident the Chiefs would get the first down on 3rd and 1?


This move doesn't do anything to fix the problems exposed in this offense the past 2-3 seasons.

While I don't disagree, the Chiefs biggest problem in short yardage situations is that they have not been able to find a bonafide starting Left Guard during Reid's entire tenure.

Without a big, strong, tenacious but mobile left guard, the Chiefs are pretty much hosed in those situations.

And I don't think that Morse is the answer. He's injury prone and more of a ballerina than a brawler.

I think Parker can fix things in there. So does that mean we extend fulton then dump morse after this season (or maybe even try to get a draft pick for him?)

Based on what, exactly? He wasn't exactly a mauler in the 5 games he started in 2016.

I'll be shocked if they don't bring back Fulton this season. He's been their most consistent backup player and is probably the best center on the roster.

As for Morse, I don't give him a penny. He needs to play a full 16 game season at a high level and even then, I might let him walk and take the Comp Pick.

I'm just praying. Kareem could easily be a 6 ypc back if they figured this position out

Actually, I’m pretty sure the Chiefs ended the year number 1 in the NFL converting 3rd and 1 or less. I know it felt like our short yardage game sucked, but we were actually doing really well at it. The last stat I saw for it was during the Miami game where we were #1, converting 89% of 3rd and 1 or less attempts. They showed the stat as we attempted and converted another 3rd and 1 so it got a little better after that. Interesting and surprising, isn’t it?

That would just be baffling if it's true because it sure seems like this team just hasn't had the ability to line up and smash the ball forward on 3rd and short or the goal line.


I've been wondering what the rushing comparisons were when Morris was in/out. He was hurt early in the year and Hunt was running beast fuel, then he came back and team/rushing results tanked, then he was hurt again....I think offensive line is probably more to blame as the inside three have been sketchy imo.

I'm so "meh" about this hiring for OC....He's a Reid puppet and I just can't fathom that this move gets the offense away from the turtle-up effect to protect a lead, or inability to score when they HAVE to do so to win.

I'll believe it when I see it.
