The Kansas City Chiefs’ Week 3 win over the Chicago Bears was notable for many reasons, but perhaps the most impressive feat achieved in the game was Andy Reid’s ascension to fourth place on the NFL’s all-time leaderboard for wins as a head coach with 271 career victories.
After the veteran skipper wrapped up his comments to the Chiefs on Sunday evening, team chairman and CEO Clark Hunt stepped in to congratulate Reid on his impressive career milestone.

While a win in this game may have seemed like a foregone conclusion for the defending Super Bowl champions, the victory is sure to have meant a bit more for Reid, who is rapidly gaining ground on George Halas for third place on the win leaderboard.
With a bit of luck and another decade of success, Reid could have an outside shot to take over the first-place spot from legendary Miami Dolphins coach Don Shula, who ended his career with 347 wins.
