Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid has sent 10 of his assistants into NFL head-coaching positions. Two eventually coached championship teams; a third brought his team to the Super Bowl, where it lost.
He'd rank his latest candidate, offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, with any of them.
"I have not seen many guys that are as great a leader as he is of men," Reid said this week. "In this business, that's huge. You're never going to have to worry about Eric Bieniemy -- never -- on the field, off the field. He's going to be honest with you and straightforward, and then he knows the offense.
