The 2023 NFL head coaching cycle ended Tuesday and Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy was once again passed over for a head coaching job, while Shane Steichen and Jonathan Gannon were hired as first-time head coaches.
What does Bieniemy, who has now helped the Kansas City Chiefs win two Super Bowls as the team's offensive coordinator, have to do to get a head coaching gig?
NFL Twitter sounded off on Bieniemy not getting a head coaching job, again, while Steichen was hired by the Indianapolis Colts and Gannon was hired by the Arizona Cardinals.

Why isn't Eric Bieniemy the next Cardinals head coach? He's got to be the best OC in the NFL

The losing Super Bowl offensive coordinator got a job before the one who won his second one Sunday. Eric Bieniemy ain't never getting a head coaching job, this generation's Sherm Lewis.

Eric Bieniemy already sounds like a head coach. It’s a shame, his time for a head job is long overdue. pic.twitter.com/RCYTFdBa9q

Eric Bieniemy, the 2-time Super Bowl champ offensive coordinator who IDed the tendency that led to two Chiefs touchdowns in their Super Bowl win Sunday, was once again not hired as a head coach in this cycle. 4 of the 5 teams with HC openings didn’t even interview him. https://t.co/0qbEMycz7o

It's wild that the losing offensive coordinator from the Super Bowl got a head coaching job before the offensive coordinator that has won two SB's in 4 years, Eric Bieniemy. https://t.co/17uo9vnxhB

"Eric Bieniemy's resume is much better than all of the coordinators getting hired."

Just asking: how does Shane Steichen get a HC job after just one year of accomplishment when Eric Bieniemy (3 super bowls) doesn't? https://t.co/GSToVQN3GV

Andy Reid on Eric Bieniemy still not having a head coaching job:
"There's no reason he shouldn't get one of these jobs. He's too good of a football coach not to."— Jordan Foote (@footenoted) February 14, 2023
Eric Bieniemy should be the next head coach of the Arizona Cardinals before Jonathan Gannon is.
— Alex Clancy (@ClancysCorner) February 13, 2023
Last night Eric Bieniemy coordinated the offense like a man who earned a Head Coaching job and Jonathan Gannon coached the defense like a man who was about to get a Head Coaching job he didn't deserve. Period. https://t.co/UXGAVt77kc

If Shane Steichen is this emotional at his press conference I can't wait to see the tears of joy Eric Bieniemy cries when he FINALLY stops getting looked over for HC jobs.
