Are the Vikings Waiting on Eric Bieniemy for OC?

Something is a wee bit off-kilter about the Minnesota Vikings search for an offensive coordinator. Gary Kubiak retired on January 21st, and crickets have been the only discernible sound since. Indeed, the nomination of a new offensive coordinator is not a task to undertake flippantly or hurriedly, but some person probably should have been announced by now.

When Kevin Stefanski was re-upped for the job in early 2019, that proclamation was broadcast in January of that year. The same went for Kubiak in 2020 after Stefanski’s promotion to the Cleveland Browns head coaching job. No regulation mandates an offensive coordinator must be hired by February, but almost all NFL teams have their man in place.
