Shannon Sharpe is fuming over Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bienemy not getting a head coaching job once again.
The NFL Hall of Fame tight end-turned-sports pundit said Bieniemy has been continuously passed over for less-qualified candidates, such as former Giants head coach Joe Judge, who never did play-calling in his previous job as a special teams coordinator for the Patriots. He added underqualified former Chiefs coaches, like Doug Pederson, also landed a head coaching job before Bieniemy.
“If you said, ‘You need to call plays in order to get a head coaching job,’ I’m cool with that. But don’t give a guy a job who didn’t call [any] plays,” Sharpe said. “If you say that guy needs NFL experience. Don’t get a guy from college. I don’t know. It’s frustrating.” Bieniemy played in the NFL as a running back for eight years before switching over to coaching. He primarily worked as a running backs coach – morphing Adrian Peterson and Jamaal Charles into perennial Pro Bowlers – before becoming the Chiefs’ offensive coordinator in 2018.Sharpe said he understands why Bieniemy won’t leave the Chiefs for another offensive coordinating job – he getsand stay on a powerhouse team.
“Eric Bieniemy has been tremendous for us and I think tremendous for the National Football League,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid . “I’m hoping he has an opportunity to go somewhere and do his thing where he can run the show and be Eric Bieniemy.”
