After 21 seasons as an NFL head coach, Andy Reid finally won his first Super Bowl in a thriller against the 49ers. Patrick Mahomes and the underrated Chiefs’ defense combined to engineer a 10-point comeback in the final quarter, and outscored San Francisco 21-0 in the fourth to win Super Bowl 54.
Reid’s victory is a feel-good moment for nearly everyone in the football world, and his players lined up to celebrate with him on the sideline once the game was sealed.
Andy Reid gets his chip. 🥺🏆

As a @Broncos fan it’s crazy watching the @Chiefs win but I met Andy Reid a week after my injury back in 2010 while in ICU and he would literally text me the first play of every game for the rest of year. So I will always wish nothing but the best for him. Congrats coach

Andy Reid, the most influential offensive coach of the last 2 decades, won by being more aggressive than his younger counterpart. Love to see it.

I couldn’t be happier for Andy Reid. Such a kind and wonderful human being who reserves this more than anything. After all he and Tammy have been through including the loss of a child, imagine how that embrace felt ❤️

Andy Reid showed that persistence is a hallmark of a champion. What's your excuse for giving up after you fail once or twice?
