This. And Mahomes.
For years the narrative has been that this was Reid's offense run by the best QB in the NFL. The OC has very little to do with it. While that's true, it hasn't stopped other teams from hiring coaches in similar situations--teams who just want a piece of a successful scheme. But that hasn't been the case with Bieniemy.
Washington may not be the best org in the NFL, but if he does well there, he can write his own ticket. Good move for him IMO.
