Eagles indicate new contract for Reid

"Andy Reid could have more than his 100th regular season win coming soon. The Eagles coach might have a new contract.During an interview with Larry Kane that is to be aired tomorrow on the Comcast Network, team president Joe Banner said that he expects the Eagles to renew Reid's contract before it expires after next season."Yeah, I'm sure it will be," Banner said. "We have a phenomenal relationship with him. We view him as [being] in the top couple of coaches in the league."Reid's record suggests as much. In his 11th season in Philadelphia, he is 99-63-1 with a .610 winning percentage. Only the Patriots' Bill Belichick and the Titans' Jeff Fisher have more victories among active coaches. Reid is also 10-7 in the postseason, but has a Super Bowl missing from his resume.Banner was asked if a losing 2009 could postpone an extension. "Andy could have a bad week, have a bad year, and that wouldn't change the fact that he's in the upper echelon of coaches in this league, and we feel lucky to have him," Banner said. "So, at whatever point, I'm sure that that issue will be resolved."Reid has said before that he could only imagine coaching the Eagles and would wish to do so as long as the organization felt the same way. Still, he didn't have much to say when Banner's statement was brought to his attention yesterday."
