I’ll tell you why he took it. He knows Snyder was a on his way out. So he knows he won’t have an owner calling the shots.
Second, as long as Reid is there Bienemy will always have the knock on him that it’s still Reid calling the shots. And many have said the reason he HASN’T gotten a HC job is that it isn’t been totally him running the KC offense.
Third, and what is being reported, is that he now gets a title of AC OC and more pay. I would also posit that he only took the job if they gave him first dibs on head coach if Ron quits or gets fired.
Fourth, I can see how he wants to prove himself without a QB like Mahomes. Well Howell might be that good. Seriously. The dude crushed while at NC and went back for his senior year which was probably a mistake given the other better players left. So he fell in the draft and the WTFs scooped him up.
This is a great hire because the WTF WRs are really good and I think this guy will do a fuck load better than Turner ever would have.
