The Kansas City Chiefs may have advanced to the AFC Championship Game for the seventh consecutive season, but this was something monumental for coach Andy Reid as this is the 300th career victory for him. He became the fourth coach ever to reach 300 career wins (including playoffs) and continues to be one of the best coaches in NFL history. Let’s take a deeper dive into Andy Reid’s coaching career and discuss who is left for him to potentially pass.
Andy Reid Wins for 300th time in the NFL
Andy Reid has been one of the top coaches in the NFL and sneakily is climbing up a lot of lists. He has won three Super Bowls, made five of them, and was the 2002 AP Coach of the Year. However, this win in the AFC Divisional Round was the 300th time that he has left the field victorious as a head coach and continues to cement his Pro Football Hall of Fame career. Reid continues to put distance between himself and Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin to remain the leader out of current NFL coaches and there are only three names that are currently ahead of him.
The three coaches are Don Shula (328 wins), George Halas (318), and current North Carolina Tar Heels coach Bill Belichick (302). With this win, Andy Reid has a 27-16 record in the postseason and is only trailing Belichick’s 31 postseason wins for that record as well. His 26 seasons as a coach is the shortest amount of time any of the four coaches have coached in the NFL, however, it is unclear how many more years Andy Reid will continue coaching. Both Shula and Belichick have six championships while Reid is sitting with three and attempting to win his fourth.
Andy Reid has a .651 winning percentage in the regular season (273-146-1) while now posting a .628 winning percentage in the postseason (27-16). With 29 wins giving him the top spot on this list and having a healthy Patrick Mahomes under center, do not be surprised to see him on the sidelines for another handful of seasons at the very least. Reid is 66 years old and will be 67 when the 2025 NFL season kicks off so it all depends on how long he wants to remain on the sidelines, which he has done for both the Philadelphia Eagles from 1999-2012 and the Kansas City Chiefs from 2013-Present.
