The vice president for player personnel at New England, Pioli, 43, is close to Patriots coach Bill Belichick and has been with the Patriots for nine years. Pioli would find a warm welcome in Kansas City. At the last Chiefs' home game, shortly after the embattled Carl Peterson resigned after 20 years as president, general manager and CEO, several signs were spotted in the crowd proclaiming, "We want Pioli." Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Who will Pioli hire for head coach?

What does Pioli look like with women's underpants?

I am pretty sure it will be all over the place.

Many guys get jobs in the league because of who they know.
No way can anyone sit and say they think Charlie Weis or Romeo Crennell are good coaches.
Mcdaniels got to the NFL after haing 1 year of being a grad ass. at Michigan State,hell the Head Coach at Mich State usually doesn't get that chance.
Many ex Nfl players that are great do not get these chances.
Mcdaniles will be out in Denver in 3 years.

Again.... Why do you continue to spout ignorance? Many great coaches come from schools/programs that are not big time.

What might have seemed like a long shot at the time -- Patriots vice president of player personnel Scott Pioli running the Chiefs' football operation -- is now looking more like a realistic possibility. Once thought to be the Chiefs' leading candidate, now there is no doubt: Pioli is their man, according to an NFL source. Perhaps more important, Pioli's interest in the Chiefs and a potential new career challenge has grown. All that stands in the way is hashing out a contract agreement, or perhaps a late pitch from the Patriots (who lost offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels to the Broncos yesterday as head coach), or a last-minute change of heart from Pioli. All scenarios remained in play as of early last night, but as reported in yesterday's Globe, the intensity of talks between Pioli and the Chiefs has increased within the last 24-48 hours. Word out of Kansas City continues to be that the possibility of the sides coming together is picking up momentum. The key has been the comfort level between Pioli, Hunt, and team president Denny Thum.
