5 replacement candidates for Matt Patricia as Detroit Lions head coach

This will be the hottest name for any team looking for a head coach. The Kansas City Chiefs‘ offense hasn’t missed a beat from the transition from Matt Nagy to Eric Bieniemy in 2018. In fact, it’s probably gotten better.

Patrick Mahomes has already thrown for 100 touchdowns in three years while hoisting a league MVP in 2018 and a Lombardi Trophy in 2019. More than that, Bieniemy’s system has proven to work as long as the quarterback is established. Matthew Stafford still has two years remaining on his contract, meaning if Beinemy wants to work with him, they’ll get the job done.

A hot-shot offensive mind also becomes enticing to offensive players. Adding a name such as Bieniemy should spark motives for Kenny Golladay to remain at Ford Field while other free agents could be looking to join the club. Offense has become the way to win in the NFL, and Bienemy’s second-hand role in the Kingdom makes him priority No.1.

Let’s see if he can be the next Andy Reid and help the Lions roar proudly once more.
