PHOENIX ― For 20 years, 14 in Philadelphia and his first six in Kansas City, all Andy Reid heard was “that he couldn’t win the big one.” The evidence was strong: five conference championship defeats, and a clock management meltdown late in a 24-21 loss to the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXIX.
After winning a second Super Bowl in four years on Sunday night, 38-35 over the Eagles, his former team, Reid has put that narrative to bed once and for all. Instead, the long lingering question over whether Reid would ever win a Super Bowl has now made way for forecasts on how many he could ultimately win.
The answer appears to be at least one more, as on Monday morning, Reid reaffirmed he plans to return as the Chiefs coach for the 2023 season. That revelation comes after a week of speculation about the 64-year-old’s future.
