He wasn’t getting one this year regardless, but I don’t think it impacts much.  If KC continues to have a great offense next year he’ll get one eventually.  Most of the offensive problems from last night are on Andy Reid.  That O Line was getting abused and they didn’t do anything to stop it.  Long, slow routes and totally abandoned a running game early that was getting 5 yards a carry.  Ugh.  
 

Basically, one of the biggest knocks on him is “he doesn’t call the plays” and last night, play calling was ass.  So that’s not on Bieniemy, but Reid.

Eric was calling the plays last night. Late in the 3rd quarter he 100% was calling the plays.

Well that changes things.  Then yeah, it might have an impact on the future haha.  I honestly drank a bit too much last night and did not realize that.  Playcalling for KC was very poor.

How does the result last night impact his chances?

It shouldn't affect them at all. From what I've read the thing that's holding him back is the perception that he doesn't do much in KC. Andy Reid calls the plays and deserves all of the credit for the offensive success. If Reid gets the credit for the good performances, then he should get the blame for the poor ones as well.

Bieniemy's perception around the league shouldn't change based on last night's performance in a perfect world. But, if you head over to Pro Football Talk people are already saying that he failed to step up last night while Reid was distracted because of the drama with his son. 🙄

I'm not saying you are wrong...but...how do you know that's 100% true?

They showed Andy Reid and Eric B. is back to back shots and Reid arms were crossed with no playsheet. Eric had the playsheet and was covering his face calling the play. I was like "woah.. Eric is actually calling the plays, that's odd."

I saw this multiple times in the third and fourth quarter. I assumed that they just knew the game was out of reach or they came out of the half with that as their new game plan.

To be honest, I cut the game off after Mahomes threw the pick in the 3rd quarter while the score was 28-9. I knew the game was over so I bailed. Based on your post, maybe Reid realized the game was a lost cause as well...or felt Eric B could give them a spark. Let's be honest, Reid had some tough days leading up to the Game.

 Thanks for clarifying things.

I finally turned it off with 3 minutes left.  It felt like the Chiefs were sleepwalking through most of the season.  Not being as good as they could be because they knew they could turn it on when they needed to.  Finally ended up biting them in the ass... what a shame.  Missing their two best OT really hurt.

They're talented enough to win without their A-game against most teams. But, most teams don't have a defense as talented as Tampa's. They've got a GREAT PASS RUSH,  a good LB core, and a good secondary and great team speed on the defense in general.

I can't help but wonder if KC will rebound from this. In the early 2000's the Rams appeared to be on the verge of becoming an NFL dynasty and the SB loss to the Pats in 2001 squashed that. We all thought Seattle was on the verge of becoming a dynasty, but their loss to the Pats squashed that. Now, another team QB'd back Tom Terrific has squashed (at least for now) the next NFL dynasty.

With all of the deals they've handed out...and the fact that the salary cap may be going down in 2021, it's going to become harder for the Chiefs to hold on to their players. And, last night's game plan is going to copied by every defensive coordinator in the NFL in 2021. I wouldn't automatically pencil them in as AFC champions next season. The loss last night could possible be "the beginning of the end" for the KC Chiefs potential dynasty.

    • Maybe they meant to invite Jaxson Dart and got the names mixed up
    • Decided to finally paste this in from my google drive...enjoy the mini-book. May make 1 addendum pre-draft.   2025 Mock Draft - Full 1st Round Note: 4 trades, just teams jumping for guys I think they’re targeting.   1. TEN - Cameron Ward QB Miami - Seems like Ward #1 is a near lock. 2. CLE - Travis Hunter DB/WR Colorado - The Browns are craving offense right now and I believe the rumors.  He brings it on both sides of the ball, elevates the entire team.  3. NYG - Adbul Carter DE/OLB Penn State - I don’t want to go Carter here, but it’s either this or Schoen/Daboll take a swing on Shedeur.  I just don’t think he’s going that high - their careers depend on this pick.  They landed Russ to band-aid, so him and a Carter addition could improve each side of the ball enough to survive another year.   4. NE - Will Campbell OT LSU - His game is great; it sounds like many teams have no issue with his size and think he can go at LT.  Great scenario for Maye if NE is one of those teams.   5. TRADE SF (from JAX) - Armand Membou OT Missouri - I think they’re taking calls and SF could have the ammo.  This is a spot that seems penciled in as Graham for JAX, but it’s just not feeling like the scenario for me.  Lynch/Shanahan are not shy to trade up.  They usually don’t go OL high, but everyone bucks their trends once in a while.  Huge need and they have a boatload of picks.  I could see a bit of crazy happening. 6. LVR - Ashton Jeanty RB Boise State - I’m buying into the common refrain here.  Jeanty in Carrol’s offense with Bowers as the top target is super interesting.  Could make Geno’s job a lot easier. 7. NYJ - Mason Graham DT Michigan - The value is just too good and the fit is great.  I have a sense that Graham could slip, but he meshes well with Glenn and that growing defense.  Doesn't get past NYJ. 8. CAR - Jalon Walker LB Georgia - Could easily see a trade if Graham and Walker are gone (SF, SEA & IND as potential suitors).  But with Walker here, he just makes a lot of sense for building that defense.  Lots of buzz around him going higher, but unsure where that would be.  This marriage feels inevitable.   9. NO - Shedeur Sanders QB Colorado - Sanders lands in New Orleans.  I just see the organization being the one that fits him and could take the risk.  Carr is not guaranteed that starter spot much longer if his play like last season continues.   10. TRADE IND (from CHI) - Tyler Warren TE Penn State - With Jeanty & OTs gone, Chicago takes calls.  Warren is available here, and I could see Indy jumping up slightly to grab him.  Chicago may want to gather more picks to best build Ben’s team for Caleb. 11. JAX (from SF) - Derrick Harmon DE/DT Oregon - Harmon would be a great fit to help with their DL.  One of my favorite players in the draft who I think is way more coveted than let on.  Wins with his hands, has great size, length, gets after the QB, good run defender.  Slippery, high motor, understands how to advance in the trenches.  Too promising to go much later. 12. DAL - Mykel Williams DE/EDGE UGA - May not have the production you want, but the flashes are there.  Has the size and a great motor.  Needs to improve his pass rush plan, but after watching interviews, I can see why he’s viewed favorably.  Heavily linked to Dallas, could go as high as 8/CAR. 13. MIA - Jahdae Barron DB Texas - Best defensive playmaker in the draft and they are in need of more talent across the board on defense.  High football IQ, all over the field type. Good long term option, high floor, great skills.  Pairing him with Ramsey would be nice.   14. CHI (from IND) - Omarion Hampton RB UNC - Here’s where it gets interesting.  They’ve met with him multiple times, and I could see Johnson licking his chops at the possibility of Hampton.  It’s much more stomach-able with this trade down, gaining some capital in the process.   15. ATL - Donovan Ezeiruaku OLB BC - There’s reported interest and I think teams are pretty high on Ez (for good reason).  Being an Ez fan, I don’t want to see him in ATL, but they need a sure-thing pass rusher, and he’s the most sure thing in that department this draft.   16. TRADE GB (from AZ) - Matthew Golden WR Texas - The Packers finally buck the trend and aggressively go after a round 1 receiver.  If Golden is around, and they like him enough, I can see this type of move being made to help Love.   17. CIN - Kenneth Grant DT/NT Michigan - Shoring up the DL would be a smart move.  They need a boost in a big way, and Grant is a monster who I have a hard time not seeing being effective, and quickly.  Awesome fit for what the Bengals need as well. 18. SEA - Kelvin Banks Jr OT Texas - They’ve been linked, met, have the need, and could be wise given all the new investments on offense.  Zabel or Banks are in play here, could also see them trade up with their picks.   19. TB - Will Johnson CB Notre Dame - His value here becomes too good to ignore but injury concerns do bring him down a tad. Bucs wind up with a corner they can’t refuse. 20. DEN - Tetiaroa McMillan WR Arizona - Slipping just a bit, he makes it to Denver who lands guy for Nix to grow with.   21. PIT - Tyleik Williams DT/NT Ohio State - A bit higher than expected – the Steelers are in need of offensive help in a major way but they need an overall reset.  For that - it’s trenches out.  Arguably the best run defender in the draft and is being way overlooked.  Has met with every team, is spoken of super highly in scouting circles.  Tyleik is one of those guys everyone is trying to be quiet about. 22. LAC - Colston Loveland TE Michigan - Harbaugh brings in familiar company to LA.  They have some DL needs but pairing Loveland in that offense could be a great situation to boost Herbert and team.  I don't think he's this mid-round 1 pick everyone seems to be stamping in but this is a nice scenario.     23. AZ (from GB) - Walter Nolen DT Ole Miss - Nolen doesn’t slip all the way past round 1, too much talent.  Cardinals get a much needed DL presence. 24. MIN - Jihaad Campbell LB Alabama - Tore his labrum post-combine, so will likely miss half the season (at least), but I don’t think that drops him too far.  Vikes have the roster built to let him mend and ease into things.   25. HOU - Donovan Jackson OT/G Ohio State - He fits their needs in a big way and is viewed more favorably by teams than the other IOLs.  Stroud gets a familiar pal for much needed protection. 26. LAR - Trey Amos CB Ole Miss - A riser who keeps rising and fits the zone/man combo that McVay likes.  Could fit very nicely in LA. 27. BAL - Grey Zabel IOL North Dakota State - BAL is a popular safety destination but I see IOL as a primary target if Zabel is here.  He’s been a major riser, getting real R1 love.  The fit here is pretty spot on. 28. DET - Mike Green EDGE/OLB Marshall - Green is a gamble, his history is a bit of an unknown, but suspect.  If he checks out interview-wise with teams, he could end up in a solid late round spot.  Huge boost for the Lions. (Watch for Scourton here too) 29. WAS - Nick Emmanwori S South Carolina - After seeing what they were able to get out of Chinn, this could be a great fit for a defense who needs some secondary help.   30. BUF - Emeka Egbuka WR Ohio State - A bit of a WR slippage allows the Bills to grab a complimentary piece along with Coleman.  Pairs well to boost that offense and get them a bit more efficient.   31. KC - Josh Simmons OT Ohio State - Could be a smart move for the second half of Mahomes career.  It was a problem come playoff time and he needs the help, worth the gamble here even with his injury.   32. TRADE CHI (from PHI) - Josh Conerly OT Oregon - I think there could be some OLs to fly off the board late 1st.  Chicago now having gained picks, moves up from 39.  Hampton + Conerly would be a haul with pick 41 not far away for their 3rd pick.     Notables Not Included: QB3 - Not buying Milroe, Dart, Shough, any of them, as round 1 quarterbacks. Shavon Revel Jr. CB ECU - Could easily see Revel in the first, Vikes or Bills are possibilities.  Awesome name. Aireontae Ersery OT Minnesota - Like him but he’s just on the outside looking in with round 1, only so many spots. Malaki Starks S UGA - He’s a very solid prospect but safeties simply are not coveted, he lacks deep speed, and had a spotty 2024.  Legit talent is there - could fall into someone’s arms like Branch did in DET. Tyler Booker OG Alabama - I simply don’t see 3 IOLs in R1.  Still see him going top-40. Maxwell Hairston CB Kentucky - Another really solid prospect I just didn't find the fit for. Nic Scourton DE/EDGE Texas A&M - Was a top 2025 prospect before last season, and he still has the traits that got him that hype.  A potential Lions target. Shemar Stewart DL/EDGE - Just not seeing it even with the testing. Maybe a team takes the gamble but unsure. Darius Alexander DL - Like him but just didn’t find the right spot.  Age (25) could impact where he goes.  Luther Burden III WR Missouri - I just didn’t see a fit and could see him fall out of the first due to a variety of reasons.  James Pearce Jr. OLB Tennessee - I feel there’s traction to his character concerns more than the others.  I don’t see him in R1.   --   Panthers Draft: Still predictive with a hint of my guys/targets:   1. Jalon Walker LB UGA 6’2 243 Land a guy who can become a vocal leader for the team and create a bit of energy on defense.  Pairs well with Trevin longer term and starts alongside Jewell more immediately.  Instant impact. 2.1 - Bradyn Swinson EDGE/OLB LSU  6’4 255 33”+ arms, ~10” hands  A high upside, big framed 3-4 edge rusher from a major program.  Swinson had strong production, exhibits great bend and quickness. Can easily fill in with his frame to become a capable edge setter.  Would be a sound decision in R2. 2.2 (Trade Up) 3rd+5th - Jaylin Noel WR Iowa State 5’11 201 I don’t think he’ll be there come round 3, but this is the specific guy I think we should target.  It’s not just that he’s the “shifty” type, but his catch radius is huge for his size.  Great hand/eye coordination and extremely good at contested catches.  From video interviews I’ve seen, I also imagine this kid is killing it with meetings and seems very into the game.  Teams definitely like him.  We’ve got (3) 5th rounders, so whatevs, use one to move up a bit.         4.1 Jacob Parrish NB/CB Kansas State 5’10 191 Really fluid, plays bigger than he is and would be a long term solution as the primary NB.  Immediately comes in over Smith-Wade who is still solid depth.  4.2 Jonas Sanker S Virginia Seems to be a safety they’ve taken a liking to.  Could be a nice fit alongside Moehrig.    5.1 (traded) - if not - Tai Felton WR Maryland is one of my favorite mid/late round WRs 5.2 Jonah Monheim C/G/T USC - Versatile late round swing lineman to take a flyer on. 5.3 Warren Brinson DT/NT UGA Bring in one of Walker’s teammates as well who could work out long term with some grooming behind Bobby Brown.  Big boy at 6’5 315.  Depth and competition in the trenches is needed to bolster this defense. 7. Caden Davis K Ole Miss Wrap it up by landing a kicker.  What a dude.  
    • I think Carter and Graham are safe to go too. Those guys are definitely going top 10, probably top 5. After those guys though it becomes a real crap shoot as to exactly how it's going to play out though I think there's another handful of guys who are pretty much locks to go top 20.
