Lions likely to hire Saints assistant Dan Campbell as their next head coach, per report A day after local candidate Robert Saleh was hired as the New York Jets' head coach, the Detroit Lions have turned their attention to a new favorite for their own vacancy. According to NFL Network, New Orleans Saints assistant Dan Campbell has "taken a commanding lead" in the running for the Lions' head coaching job. The two sides can't schedule an in-person interview until after the Saints' season is over, but Campbell is reportedly the clear favorite for the opening, with the Lions even cancelling a scheduled meeting with Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive coordinator Todd Bowles because of Campbell's emergence. The Saints play the Buccaneers on Sunday night in the divisional round of the playoffs, so it could be a while until any hiring decisions are made official. Regardless, Campbell's sudden ascent to the top of Detroit's wish list is notable, especially considering the Saints' assistant head coach and tight ends coach has reportedly been more of an under-the-radar candidate this hiring cycle. The 44-year-old Campbell has local ties, spending the final three seasons of his NFL career with the Lions. A third-round draft pick out of Texas A&M in 1999, he played 11 seasons in the league, posting a career-high 308 receiving yards and four touchdowns in his Detroit debut and winning a Super Bowl with the Saints in 2009. He made his coaching debut a year after retiring, interning with the Miami Dolphins and then taking over as the team's tight ends coach the following year. After four years in that post, he spent most of 2015 as the Dolphins' interim head coach, overseeing a 5-7 finish after a 1-3 start under Joe Philbin. Since then, Campbell has served as the Saints' TEs coach and assistant head coach under Sean Payton. During his time in New Orleans, the Saints have made four playoff appearances in five years, including one NFC Championship bid. |

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I remember hearing that "Shift The Rose Bowl Right Parade" was a Bieniemy addition to the play book. Or he called it during the Super Bowl. Or something. I remember hearing his name associated with that play.

I was born in 1973. In 1978, Hayden Fry came to town. He won 8 or 9 games a year, made a couple of Rose Bowls, never won a national championship. He retired in 1997 and Kirk Ferentz took over. He wins 8 or 9 games a year on average, made a couple of Rose Bowls, even made it to the BCS a couple of times. Beat GT in the Orange Bowl. But no national championships or anything like that, and he's still here. So in the time I've really been "football aware" my college program has had exactly TWO head coaches. Bienemy could go to CU, never have to worry about security again (unless he absolutely tanks) and make a pile of money, then ride off into the sunset a CU hero. Or he can go to a place like the Texans, play for Patriot Way idiots, and fail and be hunting for a job in 3 years. |

Bienemy is largely responsible for the running game design and game plan while Kafka coordinates that passing game. |

https://www.kansascity.com/sports/sp...243077871.html Reid explained how “Shift The Rose Parade Right” ended up in the Chiefs’ playbook. “It’s crazy how that works,” Reid said. “Somehow in my file of tape I got that tape a while back, and I looked at it and I’m going, ‘This is unbelievable, some of the stuff they were doing.’ And then by chance this summer I went to a function with my old high school coaches back in Los Angeles. “The offensive coordinator that we had in high school hands me a tape and he goes, ‘This is the ‘48 Rose Bowl (I had the ‘49 one) ... Coach, Dean Dill was the quarterback for (USC) in this game.’ I go, ‘Oh wow, that’s pretty amazing.’ So I went through it and looked at it, and it was the same plays, so I go, ‘This is going in, we have to put a couple of these plays in, these are incredible plays.’” The Chiefs practiced “Shift The Rose Parade Right” during the season and waited for just the right time to use it. But before Super Bowl LIV, an official actually gave Reid a heads-up about the play. “I reminded the officials all year: ‘Listen, we’re going to line up the quarterback here, we’re going to spin around, but it’s going to be a dive. That’s what the play is going to end up being. We’re legal.’ And then of all the games to forget to tell them, I didn’t tell them in the Super Bowl. I didn’t have the chance before they were heading for the door. |

According to several reports, Atlanta really wanted to hire a Black head coach to go along with their new Black GM, yet they passed on EB in favor of Arthur Smith, who's been an OC for only 2 years.
There's certainly something that's making GM's and owners steer clear of Bieniemy. |

Also, I was curious about whether it was true or not that an assistant coach from a Super Bowl team was less likely to get a job because the team wanting him would have to wait a couple more weeks to make their choice.
I did some searching. This is by no means an exhaustive list, but it's just what I could find by thinking about what each team had for offensive and defensive coordinators when they were in the Super Bowl the past 10 years or so and then looking up if the year they got their head coaching jobs was the season following that Super Bowl 2019- Zac Taylor 2018- Frank Reich 2018- Matt Patricia 2017- Kyle Shanahan 2015- Dan Quinn 2009- Todd Haley (lol) Uhh... I may want to retract my insistence that teams don't like waiting for their head coach to get done with the Super Bowl. Maybe that was the trend from 2009-2015, or maybe I was just missing a few names. But in any case... yeah... if Bieniemy doesn't get head coach job in this cycle, there's definitely a problem, and it's probably a problem of NFL franchises being run by really really stupid people. But then again, what else is new? |
