Chiefs coach Andy Reid on Texans’ Lovie Smith: ‘Just give him time’ HoustonTexans
Although the Texans lost in overtime, 30-24, to the heavily favored Chiefs on Sunday at NRG Stadium as they won the AFC West division title, they delivered a competitive performance derailed by quarterback Davis Mills’ costly fumble that led to the game-winning touchdown.
“My hat goes off to Lovie for the great job he’s done here,” Reid said during his opening statement before taking questions at his press conference at NRG Stadium. “I mean, you’ve seen it the last two weeks. It’s a hard job, and it takes time as a head coach. Lovie, my word of advice is just give him time.
“Number one, you see the heart that they play with,” Reid said. “Then, two, the defense is tremendous. Offensively, they’re banged up a little bit. The injuries can kind of get you there. I look at the scheme of the offense and defense and how they do on special teams, and they’re right there. “It was tough, man,” Howard said. “I can’t say I’m down because I see the potential of this team right now. I see we can play with the best teams two weeks in a row. Going forward to the future, we’re building something good and I think we’re going to be a good team.”
