WATCH: New Commanders Offensive Coordinator Eric Bieniemy press conference

Head Coach Ron Rivera and Asst. Head Coach/Offensive Coordinator Eric Bieniemy hold a Introductory Press Conference

[@davidwsmith316]

As a Chiefs fan, I just want to thank Coach Bieniemy for his contributions to the Chiefs' success and for his time there. We will miss him. Also, I want to congratulate Coach Bieniemy on his new position as Offensive Coordinator and Assistant Head Coach with the Commanders! We wish him the best.

[@ShamblesMD]

Appreciate the respect, I've heard he's that kind of guy. Over the past decade, our OC's were Kyle Shanahan, Sean McVay, Kevin O'Connell, and...Scott Turner. It really kills me watching these offensive gurus pack up and leave to create playoff teams. Here's hoping they actually promote this one.

[@KingKratos79]

EXACTLY NOTHING WRONG WITH SOMEONE MOVING UP

[@blainebowling3303]

That’s “Stand Up” AF!! Appreciate ya!!!

[@StephenCraig-mw1rz]

Great statement David. I am another Chiefs fan who will be rooting for Washington this year. I expect the offense to be dynamic.

[@junior0307able]

After listening to this interview, It's hard to believe no team wanted to hire this guy as head coach.

[@alphasports3743]

@@junior0307able I give Nagy a pass ... he never wanted Trubisky as his QB. They hired him because the previous HC didn't want Trubisky as his QB. So when they finally get the guy he wanted they fired him, now the Bears are talking about trading away Fields. I don't know much about this Howell guy but I watched Mahomes play in college and vs SEC opponents it wasn't a pretty site but he still have them hell. Mike Vick and McNabb was the same ... the difference Mike Vick didn't have Bieniemy a guy who knew how to use dual threat QBs. There are only a few HC or OC in the NFL who know how to use a dual threat QB ... Andy Reid had 3 of them, 2 without Bieniemy and couldn't win it all.

As a DC native, I don't care about the backlash he's getting. As far as I'm concerned, this is one of the most exciting decisions we've made since we signed coach Gibbs again. I'm looking forward to the new energy in the house, good or bad. We were already making terrible calls, it can't get any worse. LETS GO EB!!!

For those of you who aren't familiar with him...this is exactly who E.B. is. Focused, People-oriented, Accountable, Straightforward. And he knows a lot about Football Offenses and how to attack defenses. See you in the Super Bowl.

First off, on behalf of the NFC East, thank you for clapping the dirty birds. But more importantly, now they have to deal with him 2x a year.

[@semperfiarcher]

Washington fans, watch out for Bieniemy! He's going to bring your offense to a new level that will compliment your top defense. He's the type of coach that can evaluate talent and put people in a position to succeed. You're going to have a strong year. I'm a Chiefs fan that will be rooting for your success!

I’m not a commanders fan but when I hear EB talk I’m even more upset he does have a HC job! You can’t tell me he doesn’t interview well aster this press conference!

He is a unifying figure and he contributed greatly to the success of our Chiefs. None of us here wanted him to go. Washington is getting a great coach.

[@corinthianharris2]

He's too aggressive inside the skin he's in for a CEO to give him the keys to taking control of their organization. If he would have came in more political and not as straight up owners and front office management would feel more comfortable because they could control him. He sounds too much of a real leader that would have to have control. It's not about what he can't do.

[@XtremeSportX247]

Andy Reid has mentored him very well, I am glad he is finally getting his time. We have to be better at giving people OPPORTUNITY, ALL PEOPLE, ALL RACES!! I like how Deion Sanders is also pushing for diverse kickers, punters and snappers. Why don't other races get these positions!!
