Bieniemy getting his shot to prove himself

Then when you give a laundry list of HCs that also didn't call plays as a coordinator the goalposts move. It might be that those coordinators didn't have success. Then you can point to Head Coaches like Taylor and Sirianni and *poof* goalposts moving. 

I won't say that it is 100% because of the color of his skin. But the quantifiable/objective reasons for him to be passed up after all this time are nigh nonexistent. The most objective reasoning is decades-old legal troubles, which bear some scrutiny. And honestly the pressure that Bieniemy will be under, knowing what the consequences might be if he were to fail as a HC might also give owners pause.

But to act like Bieniemy hasn't earned the same shot that other HCs have gotten, failures or not, is borderline delusional at this point. 

I agree. I've never interviewed the guy but he may not be very good at it?

And there's definitely some hesitation with his background and some of the issues he's had with players in the past--notably Kelce and Mahomes. His past is very well documented and would give most owners/gms a bit of pause.
