Neither player has been with the team for more than two games so the practice time with Matt Cassel hasn't been there.  That doesn't necessarily matter to head coach Todd...  

Apparently Kansas City Chiefs head coach Todd Haley still keeps in contact with his former pupil, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner.  This isn't too surprising as these people do, you know, have a life outside of football and can actually develop non-football relationships.

Everybody said their confidence was soaring and that maybe, finally, the long-struggling franchise and its rookie head coach had...  

Amid all the lopsided losses and fans' pot shots that have marred his first year as a head coach, the last thing Todd Haley wanted to talk about was Texas legend Earl Campbell providing Jamaal Charles with counseling on how to hold on to the football.

The nicknames are the same. Not much else is in Denver and Kansas City. In today's NFL, franchises that have played one another twice a year for half a century can become almost like strangers in just 12 months. Since the Broncos beat the hapless Chiefs 24-17 last Dec. 7, both teams have changed head coaches, offensive coordinators, defensive coordinators, general managers and quarterbacks, among...
