I’ve been texting with one prominent Washington Commanders player about the Eric Bieniemy hire.

Direct quote…”absolutely jacked!”

Yeah, these players are fired up that EB is joining the team.

My only insider info that I can share… EB texted Len today & I asked Len to ask him where I can send him a run the damn ball hat as my welcoming gift.

Len actually laughed but then continued to roll his eyes at me after. Safe to say I must be feeling better

Eric Bienemy, who is going to be the Commanders’ play caller, is about to check the final box of excuses as to why he isn’t an NFL head coach. If he succeeds in Washington and doesn’t get an HC opportunity, there won’t be any more room for goalposts to be moved. pic.twitter.com/LEFsAYeO9w

Eric Bieniemy going to the Commanders is foolish and unnecessary.

Matt Nagy nor Doug Pederson had to “prove themself without Andy Reid.” pic.twitter.com/MUAaKnA7F2

I was completely unaware of any allegations before seeing the Acho video. A quick Google search got me to this site (not the only one available) that offers some details (if you scroll to the bottom of the article).https://t.co/SaykpfWBPS https://t.co/lBj2F7EydR

The debate on whether Eric Bienemy should be a head coach, is separate point from whether his new job with the #Commanders is lateral; it’s not. The language & pay in his new contract underline that fact. I am completely aware of it & his term, as I am of his previous 1-yr deals. https://t.co/JMABDPeBue

Talking about Eric Bieniemy; why he’s here; what he adds; some anecdotes that say a lot about his attitude and what he expects. Much more. @ESPNRichmond https://t.co/ucETTX0lZB

Fun fact: Eric Bieniemy’s last NFL touchdown as a player was against Washington — the game-winner in Donovan McNabb’s first career start.https://t.co/wVlYUUdUXR

It’s not a coincidence that former NFL players turned head coaches tend to have more former players on their staffs, which increases the diversity on the staff. They’ve been in the locker room and know what/who resonates with players. (SEE: Dan Campbell/Doug Pederson) https://t.co/G1oDPrmdGo

On Daron Payne, seems like they want to re-signing him, but may have to wait because of cash flow issues. They had to wait on Terry last year and ended up paying more because market moved. Same could happen this year. Could they creatively structure a deal to get him signed now?

— Mike (@MikeRnFn1) February 18, 2023

They didn’t have to wait; they chose to wait. They tend to move slow with contracts. But I’m not sure about what they can do now. But both sides need to be motivated. If I’m Payne, would be tempting to gauge my market value. Can be tagged of course.

If the #Commanders wanted to go younger at the TE position, they have three intriguing options in the FA market.

This may make sense due to Bieniemy’s use of TE back in Kansas City.

Best part, TEs don’t break the bank. Gisecki may be a low-risk, high reward candidate. #HTTC pic.twitter.com/vPGaNqKMIG

Even before the Commanders hired Eric Bieniemy I’ve been calling for them to draft Notre Dame TE Michael Mayer at #16 and Now that needs to happen even more so! He would look so good in Bieniemy’s offense. pic.twitter.com/HYfrFrQ7hd

Get what you’re saying, but I had no problem with the way he was used. He was in position to do a lot of damage. That 2015 season: 87 catches, 952yards, 11TDs. In 14 games. https://t.co/dHQdIojQ3a

Huge congrats to good dude Eric Schaffer, who is the new EVP/Chief Commercial Officer for @JoeGibbsRacing on the eve of the @NASCAR season & #DAYTONA500 …Coach Joe & Eric worked together at #Redskins

The #Panthers are hiring three-time Pro Bowl cornerback DeAngelo Hall as their assistant defensive backs coach, per sources.

Hall, who was working as an analyst for NFL Network, has been thinking about coaching since retiring five years ago. Instant credibility in the room. pic.twitter.com/pFAOuxXvV9

#Patriots may not see a “massive gap” between Mac Jones and Zap Bailey, per @AlbertBreer

When asked if the Patriots will be willing to listen to trade offers for Mac Jones. Breer said he thinks they would
