A historic three-peat is on the line for Andy Reid and the Chiefs. Standing in the way is his former team: The Eagles
CNN
Andy Reid will face his former team, Philadelphia Eagles, in Super Bowl LIX with a historic three-peat on the line for his Kansas City Chiefs.
For many years, Andy Reid was synonymous with midnight green, white and black. Now, he is best known for red, white and gold. Reid was a vastly successful head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles for 14 seasons, leading the team to nine playoff appearances, five NFC championship games and one Super Bowl. In 2013, he switched Pennsylvania for Missouri to become head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs, going onto even greater heights with three Super Bowl victories to his name, including two in the last two seasons. On February 9, Reid has a chance to etch his name in the history books for the umpteenth time as the Chiefs seek to become the first team to win three titles in a row. However, like he did two years ago, Reid will be coming up against a familiar foe at Super Bowl LIX – the Eagles. In 2023, Super Bowl LVII ended in the most dramatic of fashions with a field goal with eight seconds remaining that sealed Kansas City’s victory and Reid’s second career championship ring as a head coach.
