Daily News | Andy Reid reaches Mount Rushmore of coaches with Chiefs’ Super Bowl win over Eagles
Yes, that Andy Reid. The butt of our jokes, in Philadelphia and Kansas City. Admit it: We all enjoy it when the joke’s on Andy Reid.
The video where he’s the giant Punt, Pass, & Kick kid. The criticisms about his clock management. The goofy Hawaiian shirts. The jokes he makes about his girth and his appetite; they don’t call him “Big Red” because of the size of his feet.. The guy who can’t make halftime adjustments overcame a 10-point halftime deficit. The guy who can’t manage the the clock was like a maestro.
Or how about the one in the AFC championship game after the 2015 season, when approximately the same thing happened with his Chiefs against the same Patriots?Since then, Reid has reached five conference championship games. He’s won two Super Bowls.Andy Reid belongs on the coaching Mount Rushmore.Reid torched the No. 2 defense in the NFL. He torched it with a quarterback he created from whole cloth. That quarterback filleted the Eagles on one leg.
Led by the first two Black quarterback to meet in a Super Bowl, the Chiefs and MVP Patrick Mahomes squeaked past the Eagles and Jalen Hurts, the MVP runner-up. They’d each earned half of the 70 points on the board late in the fourth quarter, Mahomes with a bad wheel, Hurts with a bad wing.
Minutes later, Mahomes scrambled 26 yards up the middle toward what he knew would be an ankle-addling end. That ankle, sprained three weeks before, nearly got twisted off just before halftime.The run set up the field goal that split the uprights with eight seconds left. It was a masterful performance by two superb coaches, Reid and second-year savant Nick Sirianni.Rather than scoring a touchdown, running back Jerick McKinnon slid to a knee at the 2-yard line with 1 minute, 36 seconds to play.
