The end of the Bill Belichick-Scott-Pioli era is near.
New England VP of Player Personnel Scot Pioli is very close to being hired as Kansas City's new general manager and head of football operations, Chiefs officials told FOXSports.com Tuesday.
Details are still being worked out and finalized, but no holdups are expected at this point in negotiations and a deal should be completed shortly.
With the hiring of Pioli, it is presumed by many around the league that he will not retain current Chiefs head coach Herm Edwards. although no decision has been finalized or voiced to Edwards at this point.
While Pioli has been linked in rumors to University of Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz, that option is far from a slam dunk.
The Pioli-Belichick partnership has produced a modern-day dynasty in the NFL, with the Patriots reaching four Suuper Bowls in eight seasons (three titles), winning six AFC East division titles and seven 10-win seasons. |
I wonder what could kill the deal at this point? No... I want THAT parking spot.
Clark: Sorry, that is my spot.
Pioli: Fine... I am not coming.
Clark: Fine, I wanted to keep Herm anyways.
Clark to Personal assistant: Get that Dominoes delivery guy that said he would keep Herm if we let him have the job.
