Will Andy Reid break the all-time career record for wins as a head coach?

That opinion makes a lot of sense, but do consider this:

Andy Reid is an extreme workaholic, and he probably loves football more than he loves sex. I think people are letting his weight cloud their judgment on this a bit.

He gets to see his son every day at work. He's got the best QB in the league. He's got a great owner with a steady leadership style, and his GM is young, organized, and has the advantage of acquiring talent each year by enticing players to play with Mahomes. Also for the first time in his coaching career, Andy doesn't have to deal with the aura or inner thoughts of people who might believe in the stupid "can't win the big one for a cursed franchise" ghost. He's never had it easier in his entire coaching career.

What's a guy like that going to do when he hangs it up? Yeah, that time has to come for everybody, but I reject this notion that Andy is more ready to quit in a couple years than other NFL head coaches in their 60s, particularly the older guys like Belichick and Carroll.
