Longtime NFL head coach Andy Reid is now in his mid-60s. After a lengthy run with the Philadelphia Eagles, Reid took the reins in Kansas City in 2013. 

Reid has already won two Super Bowls with the Chiefs and will compete for a third championship later today. The combination of Reid's age and accomplishments have sparked discussions on whether Reid will decide to walk away from coaching shortly after Super Bowl LVIII concludes. 

At the same time, many have argued that Reid is more motivated than ever to continue coaching. He has a superstar quarterback in Patrick Mahomes, who is just entering his prime and under contract for the foreseeable future. He has led the Chiefs to six straight AFC Championship games, and finally won the elusive championship he pursued for years in Philly.

Regardless of the outcome of Super Bowl LVIII, Kansas City's window to compete for titles does not appear to be closing anytime soon.
