1) Houston Texans 2020 NFL Season
In 2020, the Houston Texans struggled and made one head-scratching decision. That decision was trading DeAndre Hopkins to the Arizona Cardinals for almost nothing.
J.J. Watt publicly called out his teammates' performances towards the end of the season.
Deshaun Watson has also expressed his problems with the Texans and wanting to be traded. Houston is thus banking on landing Eric Bieniemy as their next head coach to save their relationship with Watson.
But with all the drama circling around the Houston Texans franchise, it would be a lot of work for Bieniemy to fix it.
2) Houston Texans 2021 NFL Draft
Houston Texans currently do not have a first round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
They would need to trade away Deshaun Watson to receive a first round pick in this year's draft.
By trading away Watson it would mean the Texans now have to convince Bieniemy to be a part of their rebuild.
It would be tough to convince Bieniemy to take the job without a quarterback and only having one star in J.J. Watt.
Houston Texans will need to some how repair their relationship with Watson before Eric Bieniemy becomes their head coach in 2021.
If they cannot repair it and trade away Watson, Bieniemy will most likely stay put in Kansas City.
1) Eric Bieniemy has a great coaching job with the Chiefs
Right now Eric Bieniemy has a good home in Kansas City with the Chiefs.
They are contending year in and year out. He has one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL in Patrick Mahomes.
He is also coaching under one of the nicest guys in the NFL in Andy Reid.
Bieniemy would be the number one candidate once Andy Reid decides to retire and will be in a great spot with a lot of talent.
If Bieniemy can ride out his time it would be smart to stick with the Chiefs and wait for his time to become head coach there.
