Kansas City Chiefs GM Scott Pioli Calls His Staff "The Tribe"

FoxSports.com's Alex Marvez posted a really good article today on Kansas City Chiefs head coach Todd Haley, his struggles and triumphs in KC, and his overall coaching style.

Marvez also mentioned Scott Pioli's nickname for his Bill Parcells inspired coaching staff: The Tribe. Marvez wrote:

"It's also further proof that Chiefs players are bending to the will of Haley and a support group that general manager Scott Pioli affectionately refers to as 'The Tribe': Assistant coaches and front-office personnel whose football roots can be traced to Bill Parcells' NFL tree."

Marvez rounds up some good original quotes from Chiefs players too on Haley, how things have changed from the Herm Edwards era to now and more. Check out the rest of the article here.
