Ex-Patriots Coach Does Something Bill Belichick, Tom Brady Never Did

The Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals will face off in the AFC Championship game on Sunday, marking the ninth-consecutive appearance for a former New England Patriots assistant.

That’s right folks, if you want your team to make it to the final four, just hope they hire Brendan Daly.

Daly, who has spent each of the last four seasons as a defensive assistant on Andy Reid’s staff in Kansas City, will surpass Tom Brady and Bill Belichick for most consecutive AFC Championship appearances by an individual.

Daly, of course, had some help from the NFL’s greatest coach/QB duo to kick off the streak.
