EB coming back was the best move that could’ve realistically been made. No top OC candidate is coming to KC to be a glorified water boy.
It’s always a great show when Timmy Timerson makes an appearance!
EB is a hell of a coach! Glad hes back. This team has been extremely undisciplined under Nagy and Reid
It is my hope that Bienemy will instill some aggressiveness and physicality in our receiving core. Teach separation and aggressive pursuit of the ball.
EB also had a prime Hill and Kelce. Not taking anything away from him, but those two in peak form make a difference.
Oh wait, so you're saying the OC does have a job? You've told me for the last 3 years that they don't do anything… But now it's to be a disciplinarian? I'm confused.
I have to agree with what many have said, no high quality OC is going to come to KC and not be able to have control of the offense or at lest much more say then Andy give them. We seen it in the clip when Mahomes comes to the side line and ask for wasp. EB called on Andy He want's to know if he has time for wasp. I like EB and I think he's as good as anyone that would come to KC unless it was with an understanding that Andy was going to retire in a year or two for sure and they will be the next head coach of the Chiefs.
I understand why some fans like the hire so much but it kinda sucks to only do one interview and its with a guy that got 0 buzz as a OC candidate around the league. (no i do not believe known water carrier josina Anderson). His track record outside of KC is abysmal. Chiefs fans coping so much that they say it wasn't his fault he got fired after one year in Washington and UCLA.
Can someone please tell me how Bieniemy gets credit for the Chiefs offense having prime Kelce and Hill?
It's not Eric Bienemy's fault he's coming back. It's Andy Reid's. Andy doesn't want innovation or anyone calling plays, besides him. The buck stops at Andy. Blame him for the staleness of the offense, the lack of new ideas and the lack of execution.
"At the end of the day its still gonna be Andy Reids show, he proved that by making the hire he did" mic drop from Nick. Bravo.
Matt says the team hasn't cared the last few years. IF that were true you could go ahead and put a wrap on all future dynasty talk. They would need a rehaul from top to bottom. That would mean Andy and the whole coaching staff would have to go. You're questioning the players heart at that point……………. That's a big allegation to just throw out there.
Why does no one ever mention lack of talent? Why does it always have to be oh the schemes bad or oh they don't care anymore. What if its just that the players you thought were good aren't?
Andy gets all the credit and none of the blame. He’s making $20M a year. If he can’t get the offense right, we’ve got bigger issues.
Execution was a huge problem. Improved execution will make a world of difference.
I think EB has longer arms then other candidates so he was selected.
Thanks Matt and Nick.
Yeah because Andy doesn't have cliché vanilla press conferences lol stop it
Chiefs need to hire Nick as a consultant
Keep cooking Nick! 😮💨🔥
Reid spouts nothing but cliches as well
If EB can fix the penalties offense is good enough in my opinion!!
It’s not a step back or ahead, it’s the same, Reid calls all the plays, the league figured him out a couple of years ago, he hasn’t and won’t change. EB isn’t going to make any difference, until Reid retires , and brings in a new OC.
2022 EB was the OC and they didn't have Tyree🤷♂️
I didn't realize that what coordinators say in pressers or interviews is so critical to a team's success. If Nagy had been more engaging in front of the media, would we be playing in the Super Bowl?
Matt, your take on the team the last couple of years could not be more SPOT ON! They have been told by everyone how good they are and they started believing it.
Talk about Bienemy and cliches what about Andy Reid? He is the biggest broken record and king of cliches but you never call him out!!! In fact, his press conference today it was the same crap he always says. He won't change anything next season especially since Bienemy is back. Chiefs need new blood!!
