Commanders 2023 Off-Season Thread

[SunnySide]

No Bieniemy announcement yet?

Im hoping he comes here, better candidate then I thought wed be able to attract. If he does come, I wonder if he brings some of his own from KC or hire some of his own assistants.

edit -- sounds like he is asking for 2.5M per.

Good sign imo. Really think Ron would pull a coup getting him here.

Side note…listening to the Sheehan and Thom podcast about this subject after work now, these guys are whining like little bitches about EB being the choice. Like it’s a problem he would chose here. Sometimes those two are so miserable

Very good sign, and wtf could someone possibly say bad about Bieniemy replacing Scott fucking Turner? Jesus some people are never satisfied.

For some reason a lot of people in the local media act like they've never heard of coach speak. JP for example keeps harping on the RR comments after Turner was fired, about wanting to run the ball more (which was purely coach speak) and how that contrasts in hiring someone like EB.

I'm like, yeah you can say all about running the ball, but if a talented coach becomes available, you take that opportunity.

Sheehan keeps harping on it too. Plenty of legit gripes to have about RR, wish they’d move on from some throwaway comments in a presser. That said RR would benefit from saying less at times, he definitely likes to hear himself talk.

JP Is like that too most of the time.. It's like the old saying "Misery loves company" Those guys are never happy

JP and the Washington Football Talk guys are acting too much like fans and less like journalists. I really find myself skipping some of their segments.

Thank God for John Keim, his podcast is super awesome, extremely informative an objective.

I sometimes listen to JP & BMitch in the mornings while I'm working. BMitch keeps it real for the most part.

we're lucky anyone wants to be here with the ownership situation and unproven low-round qb on deck (with a bad OL). We paid the Gibbs staff (w/ saunders/grilliams) billions of dollars, so I sure hope the salary isn't a hangup. No cap impact, so who cares?

on the plus side, always a chance the ownership situation could give you a HC shot, and the WRs/RBs are actually good (as well as the defense, which means you can win without having your inexperienced QB throwing 400 yards a game).

If Skins fans or commentators are bitching about possibly getting a 2 time super bowl champion as an O.C., I don't really know what to say. Bienemy as O.C. would be an absolute coup for us. It's just asinine that people wouldn't accept him. Doesn't have to be your No. 1 option, but to act like it's a bad hire is ridiculous.

Andy Reid is a HOF lock. No way he keeps someone around for no reason, and no way Bienemy didn't learn an absolute shit ton from Reid on how to run a team, let alone to call an offense.

Hire that man.

EB wouldn’t be a bad hire necessarily but I do think there are some legit questions about why he would come here and why he’s been passed over repeatedly by other teams. We’ve had countless moves over the years that looked like slam dunks and ended up being complete duds. If we hire him I’ll be in wait and see mode.

If he was hired for HC, I'd be more concerned with the stuff you mentioned. But I think he's absolutely earned the right to be hired somewhere as an O.C. And we aren't going to get a clearly better candidate.

Wait and see makes sense. I think that makes sense with anyone that comes here. Definitely no guarantee he will be a great O.C. But a worthy bet imo.

Obviously looks like this is going to happen.

This is a bizarrely insane upside down inverted lateral backwards move by Bieniemy IMO.

But a great get by Ron. Have to give him credit. It provides a little hope for the fans. Even if it doesnt work at least there is some hope.

LOL This ass clown too always negative
