LeSean McCoy says he is rooting for Eric Bieniemy but claims coach had nothing to do with Chiefs passing game

LeSean McCoy is not afraid to voice his opinion. He has done this many times in the past, but in a recent interview with FS1, Shady said he is in fact rooting for former Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy but says the former Chiefs offensive coordinator had nothing to do with the Chiefs passing attack.

Here is what the former Eagles and Bills running back had to say:

“What’s his value? What makes him a good offensive coordinator? The problem is, a lot of these people that go on social media, ‘He should be the guy for the job,’ they haven’t played there,” McCoy said. “I’ve been in the rooms where he’s coaching and he has nothing to do with the pass game at all. When the plays are designed, that’s Andy Reid. When you talk about offensive coordinators, I can tell you what makes Brian Daboll with the Giants a very good coordinator. I can tell you about Andy Reid or Doug Pederson. But Eric Bieniemy, what makes him good? When we watch the film of practices and we correct the wide receivers, the running backs, the quarterbacks, he doesn’t talk in there. Andy Reid talks in there.”

McCoy is still hoping Bieniemy succeeds in Washington, but felt he needed to say what he said.

“I’m rooting for him because he’s a Black coach and I love to see Black coaches win. Also, he’s a running backs coach, and running backs coaches never get a chance to be offensive coordinator,” McCoy said. “So I want him to do well, but if I have to do my job and be honest? My thing is, where is the true value at?”
