Much like the Broncos, the Chiefs also are familiarizing themselves with a new regime. The key difference was the organizations' respective starting points. Denver went 8-8 last season, and so some temporary slippage is acceptable. Kansas City went 2-14, so a step backward would be, well, unfathomable.
First-year General Manager Scott Pioli and first-year Coach Todd Haley will look to turn around a team that couldn't move the ball, couldn't score and couldn't stop opponents much at all.
The Chiefs will do so with a new quarterback, Matt Cassel, but without standout tight end Tony Gonzalez, whose wish to be traded to a team (Atlanta) with a better chance to win immediately finally was granted.
With wide receiver Dwayne Bowe emerging as a go-to option and running back Larry Johnson returning to full health, Cassel still has a few weapons.
