Greybeard Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Reid is the reason Mahomes is MVP.

Not even remotely the same in my opinion. Mahomes guy had no defender within 10 yards. And he threw it from the gas to 5 yards. Allen threw the full distance from the gas to the corner of the endzone. And Mahomes wasn’t at the end of a 100 degree game. A football field is over 50 yards wide.

Royale with Cheese Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 5 minutes ago, Einstein said: I was just replying to someone saying Reid was ran out of town. My comment was essentially “that may be so but he had more success than McD has had so far when they ran him out of town”. If McDermott continues to lose in the postseason like Andy Reid did, he will eventually get fired and then immediately picked up by another team....just like Reid. By saying Reid had more success than McDermott after being a continual playoff disappointment is splitting hairs. Every criticism that Reid got, McDermott is getting now. I just don't like the "McDermott isn't doing in year 6 what Reid is doing in year 24". Some people/coaches/players peak faster than others. McDermott disappointed this year. Reid did it continually for years and finally got the monkey off his back a few years ago. Now he got his second one in his 24th season. He's a great coach that improved from his first stint and also got Patrick Mahomes. We have Josh Allen. Allen has outperformed Mahomes in the last 3 meetings, including the playoffs. We know what we need to fix, lets see if we can fix it. I'm down on our coaching staff right now but not writing them off. Right now McDermott and Reid have had similar starts to their careers. We just hope McDermott gets us over the hump faster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has won a Super Bowl and I don't think he has ever had a losing season. Besides Tomlin would build a tough, physical football team unlike the finesse team we have now that can get pushed around by other physical teams. See Jets game winning drive where they started at their own 5 and ran the ball down the Bills throats for a game winning FG as an example.

Cray51 Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Reid is spectacular in his play design and ability to confuse a defense. He creates easy initial reads, and safe second reads. I really think Kelce is not the go to first read on most Chiefs plays (outside of the goal line), but he is a clearly a designed second read where Mahomes knows he can get the ball to most of the time. It almost forces the defense to acknowledge everyone around their best player without having the ability to hone in on him. Reid is just a hall of fame coach. Of course I'd love to have him as the BIlls HC, but that's not how this game works. McD needs to continue to learn and develop, and I know Sean has a long career as a HC ahead of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahomes doesn’t deserve the MVP award. Reid does. Did you see the last 2 TD passes? How perfectly scripted those were? How wide open he got the pass catcher on BOTH occasions? How Mahomes only had to not screw it up? You guys can all talk about McD’s regular season success. But I envy the Chiefs playoff and Super Bowl success. They even traded a HOF WR and STILL won the SB the next year. Eagles o-line dominated. Reid still won. Mahomes got hurt. Reid still won. No excuses for Reid. Just success. Which Andy Reid as head coach you want? The one who was head coach in Philadelphia from 1999-2012 with 2 division round losses, 4 conference losses, a superbowl loss, and 2 WC losses for it? The one who was head coach in KC from 2013-2018 with 2 WC losses, 2 division losses, a conference loss, and a lot of people saying he didn't have what it took to win the big ones?
