Once he gets the record this may be untouchable for a very long time.
The only ones with a shot are shanahan and mcvay. Not so sure mcvay will put all the years in. And both guys need to be absolutely dominant for a few decades to even have a shot [Reply]

I don’t think that’s crazy. Andy had a rep for being a huge playoff choker prior to hooking up with Mahomes and he’d just come off a Belichickesque crash and burn year in Philly. [Reply]
Also, that is insane. I had no idea Reid was so close. These last two Super Bowl did wonders for his legacy in the long run: 7 playoff wins combined. Took him from #3 to striking distance of #1.
Even if we only average 1.5 playoff wins per season, he could take the top spot in four years. If he can keep up the Mahomes average of 2.5 playoff wins per season, he could tie it up in two years.
Something else that stands out, Reid is 70 regular season wins behind Shula but 7 postseason wins ahead.

This run with Mahomes has been dynamite.
What's somehow even more crazy to me is what this team has done for the Chiefs overall legacy. They have completely turned around a really sad playoff history.
Right now the Chiefs are 24-21 all time in the playoffs. Before Mahomes became the starterr they were 9-18. [Reply]

Oh, man, it is crazy.
I’m not going to go back and look, but I want to say that we were around the middle of the pack in regular season win percentage prior to Mahomes. A CPer posted that we’re like #6 or #7 now after updating.
We had 8 AFC West titles before Mahomes compared to 15 for the Broncos, Raiders and Chargers each. Now we’ve got 16, the rest still have 15 :-)
We had one Super Bowl win. Now we’ve got four, which is more than anyone in our division (Raiders and Broncos have three a piece, Chargers have zero lol)

Pre-Mahomes, this board constantly debated whether Reid should be fired/if he was any good. A bunch of people hated the hire and had an axe to grind, especially after some embarrassing playoff losses.
A HOF caliber coach can only get you so far if you have a mid tier QB in Alex Smith.
Honestly, some people (Wallcrawler) STILL refuse to give Andy the benefit of the doubt even after a couple SB wins. [Reply]
