Chiefs What is Andy Reid actually good at? - Page 11

carcosa · 11-19-2017, 01:31 PM

We all know he's terrible at clock management. We all know he clams up in the playoffs. But what is he actually good at?

This team isn't disciplined. They draw a million flags a game and consistently make stupid decisions.

The playcalls are seemingly random, with no regard for situation or matchups.

When somebody gets hurt, nobody seems to be capable of stepping up.

And as evidenced by the first half today against one of the worst teams in the league, Reid doesn't seem to be good at bye weeks anymore either.

So again, I ask... what is Andy Reid ACTUALLY good at?????

Reid is a decent CEO-type HC who needs a strong staff like he had during his early years in Philadelphia. Reid instantly turned around the Chiefs from the Fat Scott laughing stock, and he deserves credit for that. However to get to the next level he needs to upgrade his coaching staff and recognize his limitations as a playcaller and fully delegate playcalling responsibilities to Nagy.

I've said for years now, Monday through Saturday Andy is likely a top 5 coach in the league. On game day, he is in the bottom third. Incapable of making in game adjustment.

It is unfortunate the KC media is worthless. How about asking the simple question, "Andy, who was calling the plays in the second half?"

He sure seems to be speaking into the mic and looking at the play sheet every time he was shown in the second half.

One thing that rips my heart out of my chest is consistently going to unknown players in clutch situations. When we were winning the past few weeks, we were consistently putting the ball in the hands of Hill and Kelce when we absolutely had to have yards. And guess what? It worked.

In yesterday's game, the passes in major clutch situations went to Orson Charles and Albert Wilson. Maybe someday those guys will be stars, and they deserve to get their chances, but not in a playoff game with the game on the line. Do it 1 time in 20 and it's clever. Do it 19 times out of 20 and it's dumb.

Andy Reid is good at getting beaten in the playoffs by lesser teams.

Andy can't keep his nose out of the playcalling. In the 2nd, Andy thought we needed to go into prevent mode so he took over. He will continue to do this until he retires.

It certainly appears he was calling the plays. Like I said before, that the KC media did not specifically ask him that question in the post game is the #1 question they should have asked. Followed by, "what in game adjustments did you make in the second half? Why were you unable to move the ball at all in the second half? Why did you completely abandon the run in the second half?" Unfortunately the KC media has no interest in asking journalism 101 questions of Andy.

It is also one of the first questions I am asking Nagy if I am interviewing him for a HC job. Were you or Andy calling the plays in the second half?

I agree. This is a question that needs to be asked by the media. Even if it has not been asked yet, there is still time for it to be asked.

No reason to even hope that Reid will be fired. He’s not going anywhere. He signed a contract extension this year likely at or north of the 7.5 mil per season he was already earning. Clark is not going to eat that entire salary for a coach that has brought stability and winning back to the organization.

Best that fans can hope for us that 1) he stops calling plays and 2) he cleans house with the coaching staff (Sutton) and starts turning over this roster.

He did stop calling plays the last few games of the season, and the offense responded in a big way. Why did he resume calling plays yesterday? Not sure if it was the whole game or just the second half, but the question still needs to be asked.
