Aside from Lesean McCoy how many ex players of his have complained about him openly? Tyreek pointed out LeSean was mad EB told him to tuck the ball and stop fumbling, then was benched after he kept having costly fumbles. You can Google “LeSean McCoy Chiefs” and almost every picture is of him running with the ball untucked, some of the top results are him fumbling even lol.
Contrast that to Reggie Ragland who wasn’t underneath EB, but EB took the time to pump him up after he was demoted to the Chiefs practice squad:
“First two games I sat out, but I was still on scout team and I made it my sole purpose during practice to mess up practice for our offense,” Ragland said. "During that time I was doing that he was like, ‘Hey man, Reggie, we see you. Keep fighting. Your chance is going to come back to you and when it comes, you just gotta be ready.’ “… I appreciate him as a person and as a coach,” Ragland said. “He’s one of the realest dudes, straightforward dudes you’re ever going to see. He’s a helluva coach. I can’t say nothing bad about him, so I won’t. He’s a great dude and he’s an excellent coach, (and an) excellent person at the end of the day, too. He loves his players, so I respect him a lot.”
EB comes to a loser franchise in Washington with a loser head coach with almost exclusively players that have only known losing in the NFL. And now there’s “he’s too tough on players.” It reminds me of some places I’ve worked where laziness and a lack of accountability pervaded.
I’m not sold on him being the guy either, but part of me wants him to be, just to sit down with the new GM and decide who is worth keeping around. The only guy hired after EB is the QB coach and the development of Howell has been the only reason this team is watchable. As far as I can tell, everyone else that works under EB is Ron’s people.
