Andy Reid has helped lead the Kansas City Chiefs to yet another Super Bowl appearance. He is hoping to lead them to becoming the first team to ever three-peat as champions.
While Bill Belichick has been viewed the "GOAT" of NFL head coaches for years, Reid is building a resume that might overtake him. Nonetheless, Belichick still had a message to send to Reid before this year's Super Bowl.
Belichick wanted to remind Reid to stay grounded and to keep doing what he has been doing. What Reid has been doing has gotten the team to this point.
“That’s why you’re winning, Andy,” Belichick said. “Don’t look back. Don’t look ahead. Just stay in the moment and keep winning. You’re doing a great job, just stay in the moment.”
Seeing the two legendary head coaches have such respect for each other is awesome. Belichick clearly wants to see Reid succeed.
Prior to Belichick's comments, Reid was asked about his perspective on a chance to three-peat. Reid had a great answer.
“You don’t really think about all of that until the media asks you,” Reid said. “You’re just in the grind, you’re trying to find the next first down, stopping the next team… You’re so busy doing that that maybe you look back on it when you’re retired or so and you go, ‘Wow, that was something really special.’ But right now, you’re into the guys, you’re into the team, trying to make the right calls, and so on.”
With Reid at the helm, the Chiefs are in great shape. He is arguably the best head coach in NFL history at this point in time. At the very least, Reid is giving Belichick a run for his money.
If Kansas City does win the Super Bowl again this year and three-peats, Reid could take over the "GOAT" title officially.
It is going to be very interesting to see what ends up happening against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Chiefs will have their work cut out for them, but this season has felt like destiny.
Hopefully, the team is able to come out on fire and pull out the victory. Fans can rest easy knowing that Reid will have an excellent game plan in place to give his team the best chance at winning.
