Atlanta Falcons

44. . HC. Kansas City Chiefs. Andy Reid . 2. player

This is going to confuse a lot of people. Why is Andy Reid the greatest villain in Atlanta Falcons history when he’s neither coached in their division and hasn’t coached in their conference for years? To understand why one must look back on history. It all started back in 1995. That year the Falcons fell to the Green Bay Packers in the wild card playoffs. Reid was their offensive line coach for that game, a day that saw the offense rack up 37 points.

It only got worse from there. A few years later in 2002, the Falcons lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in the playoffs. Reid was the head coach of that team. Then in 2004, Atlanta made it all the way to the NFC championship game, but once again found Reid and the Eagles waiting for them. They had no chance, falling 27-10. Yet the misery goes even deeper than that.

Just last season the Falcons were ousted once against in the playoffs by Philadelphia 15-10. The head coach of that Eagles team was Doug Pederson, a protege of none other than Reid himself.
