Andy Reid gets praised by an NFL expert for doing something that Bill Belichick did not…

Andy Reid is praised by a former NFL scout for appointing coaches outside of his coaching tree. In contrast, Andy Reid would consider unconventional options while making selections about his coaching staff. “You can see that Andy Reid stepped a little bit outside the box with his actions in Kansas City.

David Toub didn’t know Eric Bieniemy when he first hired him, and it’s not like they collaborated with the Eagles. One thing about Bill: his coordinators were always guys who worked their way up, and he was never one to hire outside help. From Brian Flores to Patricia to Josh McDaniels, he (Belichick) enjoyed starting you from the beginning and building you.

Middlekauff speculates that Belichick might have erred in his judgment by choosing someone other than his coaching staff. Belichick’s storied career in New England came to an end with a bitter taste, and there have been rumors of animosity between him and owner Robert Kraft. In the end, Andy Reid has been content to take a chance outside of the coaching hierarchy he has established.
