I give him credit for bringing in some good players and building a great (not good, but great) coaching staff.
Back then, he had less personnel control. All of the decisions that built that team, between 1999 and 2001, were made before Reid had final say over personnel. The Eagles are stuck with Howie Roseman because Andy Reid liked him so much. What is so hard to understand about that? Roseman is Andy's guy.
