While what happens on the field will be of the greatest importance Sunday, there’s a good chance the broadcasters will spend a fair amount of time talking about two men on the sidelines.

That’s because New England’s Bill Belichick and the Chiefs’ Andy Reid are among the top four in most coaching victories in NFL history. Reid, who will be coaching his 400th career regular-season game on Sunday, is fourth on the list with 277 (255 regular season and 22 postseason).

Belichick is second with 332 career victories (301 regular season, 31 playoffs).

While this game was initially scheduled to be played Monday night, it was flexed and kicks off at noon on Sunday. Most of the nation will still see the game.
