The coach/QB combo and teaming back up with a competent DC. I've never had qualms with Reid's ability to devise plays or assess talent. Two big areas of qualms. First is his player-friendly non-asschewing style, and second his turtling with a lead. Remember when 2015 started 1-5, then they went on an 11 game win streak? That was when non-asschewing was working at peak efficiency. There could have been benchings and firings and all sorts of calamity in that first month. But when things go south because personnel aren't responding to a player-friendly style, and the HC doesn't have answers for defense without a DC to provide them, you find grave trouble. Reid is a reserved guy, and it takes the right personnel to respond to that reserve. It takes personnel who knows that even if coach isn't chewing your ass, he's still disappointed when you slack off, . . . and he expects to be called Sir even if he would never ask. Mahomes is the Yin to his Yang. He's not only personally accountable, but he sets expectations by on-field example. And every word from Reid is met with 'yes Sir,' then followed on the field by precise execution of Reid's plan. There's a world of difference between the team ****ing up and Reid observing stoically, going over in his mind how they're going to 'tighten it up back in practice,' and the team ****ing up when a KID is out there creating magic, then coming back to the sidelines and telling you 'I make magic, but I also believe in YOU.' Some people take subliminal cues. But if it's JUST Reid, subliminal cues regarding underperformance is all you get, and the oblivious fall through the cracks THINKING they're going their best with no one giving them hard medicine. Add Mahomes, and you get the OVERT cues that you can and need to do better.

He'd retire with Patrick and the Chiefs would have the most Super Bowls in league history.

Yes. I am saying there are still things i don't trust him with. That super bowl win was too close for comfort. Granted there aren't many coaches i would trust more, maybe belichick, Pederson, Reich. I understand our Oline was getting abused by the niners dline, but you can't just concede our greatest strength and go to dink and dunk. You have to trust mahomes to navigate the pressure and make plays despite it. It's like a boxer who has a reach disadvantage - you don't stay back and try to out-jab him. You have to get inside. It puts you at risk of taking a big punch but it's your only hope of getting the advantage. I'm glad andy figured it out and we won and maybe you're satisfied with one super bowl, but i have higher hopes than that. We are not going to get the luxury of facing jimmy g every super bowl. The whole team, not just andy, is going to have to step up even more. |

Can't remember if it was this thread or the Andy Reid Appreciation Thread (which ironically turned into nothing more than another bitching zone for his detractors). I asked some n00b to identify the coaches that they believe have "good clock management" and one of the names they identified was Kyle Shanahan.
Hoooooo boy. |

Just note, that two of the three coaches have direct ties to AR and Belichick went to AR's sons funeral.

Serve me up some crow. i was not a fan of Andy/Alex.
I'm ready to be destroyed because I think that without Patrick Mahomes II, Andy would still be without a Super Bowl win. Just as the Patriots were winners because of the QB, the Chiefs are the same. Andy didn't make Patrick a winner, Patrick made Andy a winner. I hate to say it however, Brady made Belichick a winner like Mahomes made Reid a winner. |

Very few NFL organizations have that QB guru coach that can teach what a successful Championship NFL QB looks like. Look at what Reid did for Vick, Foles and Smith. We are very fortunate to have Reid guiding Mahomes. |
