We Almost Hired Eric Bieniemy in 2019!

The reality is people wanted Bienemy because he played here, not because he was anywhere near the most qualified guy for the job.  

Showing your age there, Whatever. Lol. There's a whole generation of fans out there who voted in the last elections that weren't even born when Bieniemy was a Bengal. I highly doubt that played into the majority of people who wanted him here.

People wanted Bieniemy because they saw his first season as OC have Patrick Mahomes win MVP while his offense was scoring 35.3 points per game which was nearly a 10 point improvement over their offense the year before (which was the 6th then, so not bad by any means). He was also the RB coach for two big Jamaal Charles seasons, Kareem Hunt's huge rookie year, someone named Spencer Ware nearly putting up 1k rushing yards, someone named Charcandrick West having over 600 yards. He had good RBs look great and he had bad RBs look passable under him.

The other choice was a guy who was an Assistant WR Coach 14-16 months prior to his hiring as Bengals HC/Offensive Playcaller who had never been hired as an OC or DC before in the NFL.
