Andy Reid with Peter King

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/nfl...ng-peter-king/

Four questions with Andy Reid ...


Not long before the end of the season, I wanted to ask Andy Reid whether he'd be interested in writing something around the time of the Super Bowl for Sports Illustrated. He said no -- even though in his youth he wanted to be a sportswriter. He thought he might be otherwise occupied. I'd felt he wouldn't take a year off from coaching up to that point, but then I knew if there was a job out there, he'd want it.

Q: So, since you've been named the Chiefs' coach, many people wonder: 'With everything you've been through -- your son Garrett's death by overdose, the turbulent year on and off the field you just went through -- why not take a year off to recharge and get your life back in order?

Reid: "Because I love what I do. Garrett loved what I did. It doesn't feel like work. I didn't want to sit home and not coach. What was I going to do? There was nothing I wanted to do as much as coach football. The thing with Garrett ... it was not very sudden; this was a long, long process. Unfortunately, [drug addiction] is so rampant in America, and people who have gone through it realize that you don't just -- as in my case -- lose a son; you lose a great friend. Now I'm able to bring my other son here. [Reid hired Britt Reid, who also had drug-addiction issues, to be a Chiefs quality-control coach.] Remember, he lost his best friend. But I am so proud of how far he's come. And it says something about him that the three coaches he worked for at Temple wanted him to come with them. The other side of this is working to move on like a man and handle what life throws at you. We're doing that.''

Q: Why the Chiefs? Why not, say, Arizona, or the other places you were linked to?

Reid: "The Hunt family is one of four or five bedrock families in the NFL that I always thought, 'If I'm ever released [by the Eagles], if one of those families calls, I'd listen.' The history here is so rich, the tradition is so rich, the fan base is so strong.''

Q: What's the one overriding thing you take from Philadelphia into this job?

Reid: "I learned to embrace a city in Philadelphia. They'll take you from boyhood to manhood, which they did with me, and that's okay. It's a results business. I got that. As far as the team goes, it's imperative that everybody's pulling in the same direction. That's the only way you can succeed."

Q: What's your take on the talent you inherit?

Reid: "Before I interviewed with the Chiefs, I looked at every snap from every [Kansas City] game this year. Special teams were average. The talent overall, it looked to me like they were transitioning from an older team to a younger one. And I thought, 'With a couple, three drafts, very good things can happen here."

Not to mention one that cost us a playoff spot last year. He's pretty bad when the pressure is on.

Bowe is a PERFECT WCO receiver. Moeaki is the same type of dual threat tight end that Reid looks for...Reid wanted to draft McCluster...Charles is a better version of Bryant Westbrook...Baldwin can be a deep threat and Breaston is a good possession guy.

I'm not sure how any of those guys wouldn't fit in Andy Reids system, but we shall see.

"Baldwin can be ____"

my favorite sentence for 2 years now. Can't wait to hear that same cliche at the end of season 3 of the Jon Baldwin failed experiment to give him a free pass

Frankly Baldwin sucks and Breaston is expensive for what he does and Moeaki is seriously injury prone.

Also the only WR Reid has ever had in his offense close to Bowe is Owens he's always gone for the speed guys.

My feeling for awhile is they'll take Geno and then a WR at the top of 2 whether that's Robert Woods, DeAndre Hopkins etc, but those would be my 2 favorites if they fall there.

I don't think Baldwin will ever amount to anything but a guy who plays like Randy Moss but has 1% of the talent of Randy Moss.

He has not shown this potential whatsoever.

We're talking about a kid that had all of 9 QB hurries and 0 sacks last season so let's keep things in perspective.

Seems about right to me, if you give him somebody who can pass.

He's not young anymore...productive WR's honestly aren't that hard to find. I don't think he sucks or anything but I do think they're gonna take a WR relatively high so that means someone is gonna be out...

That's a lot further along than anyone expected at this point.
