Should Andy Reid be more identified with Philly or KC?

Mahomes and Reid are different gravy baby. 

It's no surprise Rodgers hasn't gone on given the dysfunction and lack of investment in certain areas in GB, and similar with Wilson at Seattle. No wonder he's won only one with their offensive line year after year. 

I think the cohesion between owner, GM, coach and QB gets so underrated in the NFL.

Its funny how when McNabb went 1-4 in NFCCGs it was pretty clear it was mostly on him.

Its funny how when A-A-Ron goes 1-5 in NFCCGs its the fault of various random evil forces who set him up to appear in NFCCGs but fail. 👀

Its almost like similar things can happen for different reasons. Crazy!

Chiefs. I watched him throughout his entire time with both teams. In fact I would say my formative football years were when he was at his peak with the Eagles. So I remember that era very well. 
 

But he won as a Chief and he’s been there long enough that all his highest success will be there.

I always found it interesting that Marcus Allen chose to be inducted into the Hall of Fame as a Chief. That's personal preference.

Going from the record book on Marcus Allen, you would probably say his first team, Oakland. With Reid, the clear choice is Kansas City.

That's not how the NFL HoF works. 

 

It only matters in baseball because the bust is sculpted with a cap on it. For the NFL it's "Charlie Football, (team a) 1977-1982 (team b) 1982-1986"

It mattered in Marcus Allen's case which is not baseball.

Other things than the bust have team insignia on them. The inductee has some leeway in the choice of which team.

You might want to let the HoF know, since their page for him features 2 pictures of him in a Raider uni and none in the Chiefs, and on the alphabetical list, he's bolded for the Raiders and not for the Chiefs, where bold means "major part of their primary contribution" (which is a bordering on nonsensical phrase, but basically means "this part of his career is why he's here")

It really doesn’t. For like a year you get a locker showcase at the HOF and you can contribute whatever you want. But they take that down for the next class. 
 

The reason it matters for baseball is because the plaque has the hat so the image associates you with a team for the rest of time. 
 

For instance Pedro’s plaque lists multiple teams but the image has a cap with a big B for the Boston Red Sox letting you know that’s how he wants to be remembered and who he wanted to be associated with. 
 

Foorball doesn’t have that so it’s not really as big of a deal.

You only get inducted once, but that's when most of the pictures get taken. As noted, Marcus Allen had a Chiefs showcase specifically as a slap at Al Davis.

Agreed. it's not as big of a deal. This does not say it is nothing.

Philly. He got lucky in KC with Mahomes. Mahomes would be a HOFer and a champion anywhere he went.

You gotta imagine when he whens more, that's two or three with KC. None for Phillie. Mahomes or not, he will be forever associated with a successful KC dynasty

No he wouldn't. Let's not pretend that actual Coaching and Culture doesn't matters. If you honestly believe Mahomes somehow transforms the Lions, Raiders, Jets, Bengals into SB Champions the last 4 years.  You're even a bigger Mahomes groupy then you already appear.
