Spfdchiefsfan 621 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Andy! All this great success we are having is fun and I love it. BUT!!! How much longer does he want to coach. I don't know where I saw it or if anyone else caught it but he said something to the effect of "let's do this one more time". Is he thinking of retiring soon? He is 61. I think he is the key to this whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkuenn 3,597 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Reid will coach i bet for another 7 years. If he is winning SB still i can see him for 10 more years. I do think if he wins a 2 or the next 5 years he will go for a 4th or 5th ring and retire then. I can see him though first setting up his coaches and an apparent heir to coach us from there with a good team in place already. Would Bienemy stay that long and learn with an increased role and pay knowing he is going to get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer 8,686 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I would wager 5 more years and in a couple more he'll start to groom his successor or by that time Nagy or Pederson may be available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen 1,010,220 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Andy is a football lifer. I would bet he'll coach into his 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sith13 1,746 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I think he coaches throughout his current contract but not sure if he finishes another one. Health is always the key and spending so much time on work is probably an issue going forward especially with his weight. I think he retires with at least 3 SBs which should cement him in a decent spot for the future generations and could go for more depending on how well the contracts are managed.

He is 61. I think he is the key to this whole thing. I'm really sure he was just saying "let's win another one," like Tyreek predicted they would be back. I don't think it was at all about retiring. Andy seems like a football lifer to me. As long as his health and mind hold up, and as long as he's successful enough for us to want to keep him, I expect him to coach until he's at least 70. Now the former things are some arguably big ifs. I think the latter is pretty much guaranteed as long as Mahomes is healthy. If he is near the end then Bieniemy seems like an obvious candidate. Maybe it's worked out for him that he hasn't received any offers. It would be great to just promote him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okiechief1 425 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 It wasn’t too long after they won he said he could do this another 10 years with this group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mloe68 1,521 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 People that cover the Chiefs on a daily basis will tell you that Andy Reid isn't even thinking about retirement anytime soon. Why would you want to leave a 24 year old once in a generation talent at QB anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thegoatee 1,780 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I agree, health or some family issue would probably be the only thing to send him into retirement before 70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balto 723 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he coaches until he literally falls over dead during a game. Not judging....but wouldn’t you think with the best equipment and training staff in the world at your disposal he would get his weight and overall health in check? Just saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying Favre was saying on the Superbowl watch party with him, Montana, and Breese that it would probably be a boring party that night, since Andy doesn’t drink alcohol. Or, anything with caffeine. Other than his weight, he is probably pretty healthy. That being said, we all know that obesity can lead to a host of problems. I think he will coach until he drops. Favre also said that Andy’s favorite curse is, son of a buck. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qnet 1,150 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 He could still lose a few pounds, but Andy isn’t nearly as big as he was when he coached in Philadelphia and Green Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
