Asked if he can confirm that he would be back in 2024,Chiefs coach Andy Reid said, “Yeah. … Sure. I’m mad at [Bill] Belichick and Pete [Carroll]. Now I get asked all those questions,” Steve Serby of The New York Post reports.
When the last dying seconds of overtime ended in Chiefs 25, 49ers 22, MVP Mahomes talked about chasing a three-peat with the lovable old coach by his side.
“He’s one of the best coaches of all time — I believe he’s the best coach of all time,” Mahomes said. “I mean I know he doesn’t have the trophies yet, I have a lot of respect for some of those great coaches, but the way he’s able to navigate every single team he has, continue to have success no matter where he’s at, and for me, he brings out the best in me because he lets me be me. He doesn’t try to make me anyone else. I don’t think I’d be the quarterback that I am if I didn’t have Coach Reid being our head coach.”
Then he credited Reid with the game-winning play-call.
Following an Isiah Pacheco fumble first-and-goal at the 9, Travis Kelce bumped Reid and raged at him on the sideline.
“Put me in, I’ll score,” was how Reid recalled it, and laughed. “As much as he bumps into me, I bump into him. He caught me off-balance.”
