Reid made 6 NFC championship games and 1 super bowl.
While I think Reid was part of why we lost last sunday he's not what's keeping KC from winning it all...
No, he's very adept winning regular season games. And yes, about 15 years ago he made it to a Super Bowl. But he's got a losing record all-time in the postseason, he's won 1 of his last 6 playoff games, and the 1 was against a team that had no business being in the postseason.
Chiefs fans can and should expect better than what Reid has achieved here so far.
I don't want to excessively derail the thread about Reid's shortcomings but his reputation as a postseason powerhouse (due to a 3-4 year period in the early 2000s) and as a QB guru (due to an association with Favre that was more than 20 years ago) are undeserved. [Reply]
