Please quit saying NFL teams should hire Eric Bieniemy. He has a lengthy rap sheet.

These incidents were 20 years ago. People mature as they get older. I made a lot of stupid decisions as a young man and thank god they aren't held against me today.

And there's probably a lot more that we don't know about. Star athletes get breaks that the rest of us don't.

When you were younger did you grab a young lady by the throat and tell her a bunch of black males was going to be her worst nightmare?

He has already been hired.

He’s OC on the best team in the league. 

if you don’t believe in redemption he’s unhireable. But I’m glad he’s turned things around.

I believe in redemption but it is one thing to be a coordinator and another to be a head coach. Look what got Jon Gruden fired. E-mails from years ago. Which franchise is going to hire as their head coach someone who grabbed a woman by her throat? Women's groups are going to go ballistic.

Women groups don't care about women anymore. Now if it were a trans woman he did that to... He wouldn't even have an OC job.

STFU YOU IDIOT!!! A bar fight and shoving someone over 20 years ago is a lengthy “rap sheet”??? Really? There is a QB up in Pittsburgh who is being celebrated after his retirement this week. He is a hero and a future Hall of Famer despite TWO RAPE CHARGES!!! Yet, a couple fights/disagreements two decades ago stops a black man from getting a job? White privilege at its best.

His 20 yo rap sheet is not the problem. Don’t give NFL owners credit for applying moral criteria to hiring decisions.

EB suffers from being sandwiched between Andy Reid, who clearly runs the offense and calls the plays, and Patrick Mahomes, who is a generational talent and was excellent in all aspects from day one. The NFL firing list is filled with coordinators that benefitted from association with great coaches and QBs (see Adam Gase).

It’s possible he just doesn’t present well in the hiring process. He’s had some looks, but been passed over many times, including by other AA candidates. There have been nine openings this year, and you can expect three or four black hires.

no but even if I did and I matured and I didn't engage in that kind of activity and actually achieved in my field I would deserve a chance.

The fact that you respond so vehemently to this black man on white woman inference of sexual violence says a lot about you. Insecure in your place in the world, scared that minorities are going to "take over". You are probably one of these "you will not replace us" types. Small dick energy

I never said that.

How did I respond so "vehemently?" I simply stated facts. And by the way, I think Ben R. should have been kicked out of the league.

So what is your fear? Do you think he will beat someone up or choke a white girl?

It sounds like he is a crazy, reckless driver. He had multiple driving infractions and had his license suspended. Once a reckless drikver always a reckless driver. Look at Andy Reid's son. He too drove like a bat out of hell and he was in the accident driving drunk and/or on drugs and hurt that girl very seriously.

This is the most bs thread smh

Over TWO DECADES AGO! Get a life

His RAP sheet doesn't disqualify him from being a HC in the NFL or any other league as well as being elected to Congress for that matter.

What does disqualify is that Andy Reid OC's are place holders as AR does all the play calling and brain storming creative sh!t.

Hats off to EB for his path of redemption though! I believe he spent a good portion of his younger years in Compton and was part of the group McCartney recruited to CU.

When was the most recent incident that you listed?

The low number of black head coaches in the NFL is concerning. Not hiring Eric Bieniemy isn't.

...So it's like he's a JV version of Urban Meyers??
