The mess that is Washington:

Former running back LeSean McCoy once played under current Washington Commanders offensive coordinator and assistant head coach Eric Bieniemy ......

"The thing that alarmed me the most was the relationship with the players," McCoy said about Bieniemy during a Wednesday appearance on "The Herd with Colin Cowherd" program, per Zach Dean of Outkick. "You have to change with the times. With Bieniemy, I think he’s stuck in that old, back in the days where the coaches were cussing players out … that’s not how it’s played nowadays." 

McCoy had Bieniemy as a coordinator with the Kansas City Chiefs during the 2019 NFL season and suggested that the 53-year-old needs to realize that his coaching style could cause more harm than good in a new environment that doesn't include his offense featuring Patrick Mahomes at quarterback. 

"I was part of that Kansas City Chiefs championship team, and it was terrible," McCoy recalled about Bieniemy. "One of the first things I noticed is how he talks to the players." 

A potential controversy arose for the Commanders when head coach Ron Rivera acknowledged on Tuesday some of his players struggled to adapt to Bieniemy's intensity and personality after the two-time Super Bowl champion coordinator joined Washington this offseason. A somewhat defiant Bieniemy said later in the day that he simply "is who he is" and Rivera backtracked Wednesday by noting that he "put [his] foot in [his] mouth" via the original statements. 

It's unknown exactly why Rivera shared such information roughly one month before the Commanders open the regular season with a home game against the Arizona Cardinals on Sept. 10, but it seems he already has a built-in excuse should the club's offense produces multiple duds in Bieniemy's system this fall.

It's starting to become painfully obvious why Bieniemy was and will continue to be passed over for head coaching gigs.

And people wonder why Bieniemy hasn't gotten a head coaching offer.

People must never played football. There is always that 1 coach who is harder on the players than the other coaches.

Hope this game is at least 60/40 game to interviews. Impossible to watch that Canton game last week with all the commercials and interviews, it was like 20 minutes of actual football

This. What world are we living in nowadays? Safe spaces, don't name call, trigger warnings, etc. The NBA is already soft as can be ... is the NFL going to follow suit?

I saw a comedin's bit saying how back in the 80s/90s the youth would always rag on their elders for being tame and soft. Now, in 2023, for the first time ever, elders are looking at the youth and saying the teens are the soft ones lol.
