    I read an article about the turnaround in Kansas City (http://mmqb.si.com/2013/10/14/kansas-city-chiefs-unbeaten-week-6/?sct=uk_bf2_a4&xid=si_nfl) that mentioned a snippet about Haley I found interesting:

    "Often, the things Reid and Dorsey didn’t do spoke as loudly as what they did. Pioli and Todd Haley, the head coach he eventually fired near the end of the 2011 season, had a running joke that rubbed some the wrong way: If they disapproved of an action of a staffer or a player, they would joke, “That’s 2-14 right there.” They were referring to the season before Pioli took over, a 2-14 campaign in 2008 that ended with the departure of longtime general manager Carl Peterson and coach Herm Edwards."

    Nothing like belittling someone to help motivate them to do better. The aricle describes the Chiefs organization as run by optimistic, positive folks, which is easier being 6-0, but apparently it is an atmosphere they have cultivated.
