Andy is exactly who the Philly fans say he is. He is a great players coach, will win games, will lose games on purpose and won't ever admit he has clock mgmt and play calling issues.

Because I'd say it's at least 80% likely that the coach that replaces Andy Reid is worse than Andy Reid is, especially if you're taking on an unknown quantity. How many present NFL coaches are demonstrably better than Andy Reid right now? 1? 3? I won't give you more than 5. Bill Belichick is a ****ing wizard. Pete Carrol might be, but if Andy Reid had thrown that football in the SB, the usual suspects (you included) would be calling for his head. Who else is even in the debate? Jason Garrett because of his first actual good season in 5 years? Bruce Arians because he throws it deeeeeeeeep? Surely we're done sucking off Sean Payton now, right? At most you're talking guys that are lateral moves. And when you look at the bust rate of new NFL coaches, you're talking 3-1. And of the 1 hit, most of them turn into just some version of Reid after a few years as well (again, I'm looking at you, Sean Payton and Bruce Arians). Even guys like Ron Rivera are as likely as not to fail over any significant timeline (thanks again for costing your squad that game last week, Ron). The whole "just bring in somebody new" thing is great in theory but you have to review the actual outcomes here - are you comfortable with the fact that the odds overwhelmingly suggest that your Reid replacement will be worse than Andy Reid? Are you THAT convinced that he's the problem? Because I'm sure as shit not. That guy's a damn good football coach and I'm not going to toss him out so we can hire the next Mike Mularky or Todd Bowles. Or hey, if we're lucky, we'll grab the next Dan Quinn and actually win something if our quarterback throws for 5,000 yards. |

Andy is a good head coach. He needs to hand over the play calling to a good play caller.

Jim Johnson and Bob Sutton are the main reasons for Reid's success.

Reid's steadfast belief in complementary football seems to have helped his DC's perform much better under him than they did outside of his staffs. And I find it convenient that the same coaches that were struggling in their previous gigs suddenly got smart enough to carry Andy Reid once he hired them. TWICE no less. |

Clock mgmt, asinine red zone play calling that even a HS coach wouldn't dare to do, 7 min playoff drives while down 14 leaving your team absolutely not chance, horizontal passing inside the 5 yard line, no 2 min offense....
Those are indicative of a coach AT TIMES that is not trying to win football games on any level. So yes I believe he throws his towel in at times, otherwise you wouldn't continue to Reidtard... |

But he and Alex Smith are winning games in the regular season. 1-2 in the playoffs.
So we will see... |

If he delegated play calling and clock management he would be amazing.
