Patriots Coach Bill Belichick Joined by Chiefs Andy Reid in Rare Super Bowl Record
New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick has company.
The Kansas City Chiefs' win over the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl on Sunday lifts Chiefs coach Andy Reid into the rarest of air as he now joins three other legendary coaches on a perch in NFL history thanks to the victory.
That perch?
Reid joins Bill Belichick, Don Shula and Tom Landry as NFL head coaches with 200-plus wins and two-plus Super Bowl titles.
Belichick, Shula and Landry are all "Mount Rushmore'' candidates when it comes to coaching legends, and yes, there is every reason for Reid to now be a part of that conversation as well.
Interestingly, the Eagles team that the Chiefs just took down once employed Reid, and he oversaw an impressive run there before Philly opted to make a change. Reid coach the Eagles from 1999-2012 before taking over in Kansas City in 2013 ... at which time the Chiefs started replicating his previous success.
Reid and the Chiefs won the Super Bowl in 2019 and now they've done it again, and with their almost-perennial trips to the AFC title game - with QB Patrick Mahomes the centerpiece - Kansas City is about as close to "dynastic'' as this NFL allows ... "dynastic'' as Belichick's Patriots once were.
Oh, and while the 2023 Patriots presently have the lowest odds among AFC East teams of having major success, the Chiefs probably aren't going away.
“I think I’m going to hang around,” said Reid, 64, said of his coaching future.
