Reid is certainly an improvement over the standard of coaching we have seen in recent years. Nobody is disputing that. But eventually his litany of mistakes in critical situations hold him back.
This is part of why he's lost 5 of his last 6 postseason games, and I think we can all acknowledge that beating that 9-7 Texans team did not require what it usually takes to win a playoff game.
Barring some sort of miracle in 2017, with aging key players on defense and a declining quarterback, Reid will probably finish year 5 in KC without having made any sort of a run in the playoffs. The Chiefs have not been Super Bowl contenders during his tenure - you need to win multiple playoff games to call yourself that.
Questions should be asked of Reid that ownership is not going to ask.
