Shula 328 Belichick 302 Reid 273 wins. Will Reid catch Shula?

Don Shula has the most wins all-time by an NFL coach with 328, followed by George Halas with 318, Bill Belichick with 302 and Andy Reid with 273.

Will Reid keep coaching to get the record? 55 to tie, 56 to break the record. Five seasons to go?

Your thoughts?

I'm going to go with NO.

if he averaged 10 wins a season, that would still be 6 straight seasons coaching a playoff team. He is 67 now, he'd be 73.

I mean, it's possible, especially if he got like 30 wins over the next two seasons. But I just feel like it is unlikely. I think the moment he has a down year he is going to hang it up.

Andy Reid has 301 wins. You left out his 28 playoffs wins.

Belichick with the most ever playoff wins (31). You'd think that Reid will at least capture that record over the next two years.

McCarthy is #12 overall in playoff wins lol.

More playoff wins than coaches like Sean Payton, Bill Walsh, John Madden, Jimmy Johnson, Shanahan, Tomlin, and much more.



It's weird because I do really feel like he is a very flawed coach, who makes mistakes regularly. But at the same time I also feel like he is underrated.
