Eric Bieniemy, the former Kansas City Chiefs assistant who’s now Washington’s offensive coordinator and assistant head coach, has a style starkly different from other coaches in recent years.
in February after 10 seasons with Kansas City, where he was running backs coach before being promoted to offensive coordinator. At his introductory news conference, Bieniemy said he believes “comfort is the enemy of progress” and “we got to learn to embrace the process.”When asked Tuesday about Rivera’s comments, Bieniemy referred to that news conference.
He later added: “I’m always going to remain the same. I’m always going to be loud. I’m always going to be vocal. I’m always going to demand from our leaders. But on top of that, I’m watching everything: body language, how we address in the huddle, how we’re getting up to the line of scrimmage, how we’re presenting ourselves. Those things are important because you got to send a message to the defense.
Bieniemy also acknowledged the reps that needed no critique, including running back Antonio Gibson’s route against a linebacker. “Great job! Great job!” Bieniemy told him.“Eric Bieniemy is who he is,” Bieniemy said Tuesday. “Eric Bieniemy knows how to adapt and adjust. Eric Bieniemy is a tough, hard-nosed coach. But also understand, I’m going to be their biggest and harshest critic, but I’m also their number one fan, because I got their back [and] I’m going to support them at all times.
