Andy Reid has constructed quite the head-coaching résumé during his career, notching 273 wins (fourth in history), 26 playoff wins (second), five conference championships (tied third) and three Super Bowl titles (tied third).
And he very well could add more hardware to his illustrious career, paired with the NFL's best player in Patrick Mahomes. When all's said and done, he may be considered the G.O.A.T. of NFL head coaches. Some might argue he's already there.
"I think he's the best coach in history," an executive told The Athletic's Jeff Howe. "I really do."
That distinction is normally reserved for Bill Belichick, who has the most Super Bowl titles in history (six) among coaches and ranks third in regular-season wins (302) and first in playoff wins (31). Like Reid, Belichick had the good fortune to be paired with an elite quarterback (and arguably the greatest quarterback ever in Tom Brady).
Reid may never catch Belichick in the Super Bowl title chase, but he almost assuredly will surpass him in both playoff and regular-season wins if he continues to coach for several more years. He may even catch Don Shula's record of 328 regular-season wins, though that would require five more seasons with at least 11 wins.
Given that the Chiefs have reached that mark in 10 of Reid's 12 seasons with the team -- and given the likelihood that they'll exceed 11 wins in a few of those campaigns, with Mahomes keeping them among the NFL's elite -- it's a very achievable milestone if Reid is interested in coaching into his 70s.
