As #1 Seeds Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles Are Facing, Opposing Each Other Tonight In Super Bowl LVII In Glendale Arizona Andy Reid Is Coaching Against Team He Was Head Coach For

As #1 seeds Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles are facing, opposing each other tonight in Glendale Arizona Andy Reid is is coaching against team he was Head Coach for.

Andy Reid was Head Coach/Executive Vice President of Football Operations of the Philadelphia Eagles where he compiled a 130-93-1 (.583) regular season record. Including his years as an assistant coach, Reid's teams have made the playoffs 23 times (28-21 record), and he has coached in five Super Bowls and 12 Championship Games (8 NFC, 4 AFC). He owns three NFL Coach of the Year titles.

2008, Andy Reid became the 37th coach to reach the 100-win plateau and the 22nd to win 100 games with one franchise. He overcame a 5-5-1 start to reach the NFC Championship Game.

In 2006, Philadelphia Eagles lost six of their first 11 games and two of their most explosive players in QB Donovan McNabb and DE Jevon Kearse, but Reid led a season-ending, five-game win streak to capture the NFC East division title.

In 2004 Philadelphia Eagles clinched the NFC East title with five games remaining in the regular season and the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs. Along the way, Reid passed Greasy Neale for the most wins in franchise history as the Eagles earned their first trip to the Super Bowl since 1980.

In 2003, Philadelphia overcame an 0-2 start and a slew of injuries to post its second consecutive 12-win season. A year earlier, Reid was the overwhelming choice as the NFL's Coach of the Year as the Eagles thrived without the services of McNabb to still capture home-field advantage in the playoffs.

Following 5-11 mark in his first season, Reid led the 2000 Eagles to the greatest turnaround in franchise history, finishing second in the NFC East at 11-5 and earning a trip to the NFC Divisional Playoffs. For his efforts, Reid was named the NFL's Coach of the Year by the Maxwell Football Club, The Sporting News, and Football Digest.

Andy Reid was originally introduced as the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles on Jan. 11, 1999,after spending seven seasons as an assistant coach with the Green Bay Packers under Head Coach Mike Holmgren. During his seven years with the Packers, Reid served as the tight ends coach and assistant offensive line coach (1992-96) and as quarterbacks coach (1997-98). In his span with the Packers, the team reached the playoffs six times and represented the NFC twice in back-to-back Super Bowls, defeating New England in Super Bowl XXXI and falling to Denver in Super Bowl XXXII.

Eventually Andy Reid was fired following 14 season as Head Coach of Philadelphia Eagles following 42-7 loss to New York Giants on December 31, 2012 because of the 4-12 season the Philadelphia Eagles had including finishing season 4-12.

By who?

Owner Jeffrey Lurie!

Though, he did some kind things about Andy Reid as he called him not only an outstanding coach but an outstanding person.

He didn’t share himself with the press because he wanted to protect his players and the way he coaches. Having worked with him for 14 years. He’s a gem of a person. This man was amazing to work with smart, dedicated himself.
