Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs had plenty to be excited about.
A 29-10 Christmas day blowout of the Pittsburgh Steelers gave them a record to 15-1 while clinching the AFC’s No. 1 seed in their quest for an unprecedented third straight Super Bowl championship.
Players were excited in the locker room, especially because now key players are able to rest in next week’s regular-season finale before a first-round bye in the postseason.
Andy Reid knew just how to celebrate as he ran in playing Santa Claus for your postgame speech.
Unfortunately, part of his speech had him getting blasted.
Reid, who has led the Chiefs to three Super Bowl wins, stated in part, “How ’bout those Chiefs?! That’s what I’m talking about. Merry Christmas everybody, proud of you. For the present, you get home-field advantage.”
This was clearly taken from former Dallas Cowboys head coach Jimmy Johnson, who first stated, “How Bout Them Cowboys!” phrase following a playoff win over the San Francisco 49ers in 1993.
Patrick Mahomes Responds To Andy Reid Dawning Santa Suit
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid was feeling the holiday spirit on Christmas Day and decided to do it big after the team blew out the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The 66-year-old surprised his team dressed as Santa Claus in the locker room after the Chiefs’ 29-10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Wednesday.
Following the moment, quarterback Patrick Mahomes said it might be time for Reid to hang up his Santa suit.
“He’s getting kinda skinny. He’s getting kinda skinny for the Santa,” Mahomes told reporters after the game.
Mahomes acknowledged that Reid “fits the role perfectly.”
“It’s good for his health,” Mahomes said of Andy Reid’s weight loss, “so he’ll be a skinny Santa from now on.”
Son Of Former NFL Star QB Announces He’s Entering Transfer Portal For The 2nd Time This Month In Shocking Move

Cole Pennington, the son of former Miami Dolphins and New York Jets star quarterback Chad Pennington, has decided to again enter the transfer portal in an unexpected move.
The 6-foot-3 Cole Pennington joined the Marshall Thundering Herd in 2022, redshirting in his first year. In limited action over the 2023 and 2024 seasons, Pennington has thrown for 752 yards, one touchdown and six interceptions.
Just eight days ago, Pennington announced on X/Twitter that he was committed to the South Dakota Coyotes’ program. The team is coached by Bob Neilson, who finished 11-3 in 2024.
But shortly after noon on Friday, Cole Pennington announced that he’s back in the transfer portal because of “unforeseen circumstances.” The details behind the development aren’t clear at this time.
Braylon Braxton was Marshall’s main starting quarterback during the 2024 season, throwing for 1,624 yards and 19 touchdowns against two interceptions to go along with 610 rushing yards and four rushing scores. Braxton has also entered the transfer portal.
Chad Pennington is now the head coach of the Sayre School football team (in Lexington, Kentucky) that Cole attended. Chad played for the Jets from 2000 to 2007 before spending his final three seasons (2008 to 2010) in Miami.
Cole Pennington Looks To Follow Father’s Footsteps
The elder Pennington was drafted 18th overall by the New York Jets in 2000 following five years at Marshall. Pennington had success as QB for both the Jets and Dolphins, earning Comeback Player of the Year honors in 2006 (with New York) and Miami (2008).
New York reached the postseason three times with Chad, who also led Miami to a surprise AFC East division crown in 2008.
If Cole Pennington can land in the right system, he’ll improve his production and hopefully follow Chad’s footsteps into the NFL.
This was clearly taken from former Dallas Cowboys head coach Jimmy Johnson, who first stated, “How Bout Them Cowboys!” phrase following a playoff win over the San Francisco 49ers in 1993.
