Maybe I'm missing something, but is Andy Reid that great a HC or talent evaluator?

 

He's a modern day Marty Schottenheimer, IMO. Solid but not spectacular. Very good regular season coach who usually fields a good, competitive squad but can't get over the hump in the playoffs. Schotty lost 3 AFC Championship games, Reid lost 4 NFC Championship games. Both have over a .600 winning percentage in the regular season but both are under .500 in the playoffs. Reid has been a much better playoff coach than Schotty though.

Brett Veach will be announced as the next GM of the @Chiefs

 

@rapsheet

For the #Chiefs, Brett Veach was the top internal candidate. Andy Reid loves him. His star has risen quickly... and continuity loomed large

Probably explains why he wasn't interviewed for the Bills GM job. Knew Chiefs job was going to be open. I am happy with who we got though....It would have been interesting if Gettleman had retired to open up the role in Carolina for Beane. I think the Bills job is better than the Panthers...less fiscal constraints in the ownership--even considering Superman Cam!!!

That is a tad unfair to Reid as he did make it to the big game once to the lose to the Pats* with Donovan McNabb running the most pathetic attempt of a hurry up offense over the final ~ 5 minutes of game time.

.....Andy claims he has ZERO input on the GM hire?.....seriously?......He's IS Hunt's luvbot and gets what he wants.......of course he has input for a GM who will work for HIM.....

Just like McDermott had little influence on the Beane hire.... ;) Hopefully it leads to something big for the Bills!
