Soundbites from Scott Pioli - Reiss' Pieces - Boston.com
Pioli was asked about the “Patriots Way” and if he can bring some of that to Kansas City. He was asked to describe the “Patriots Way.” “It’s about a group of people who work passionately together and work very hard,” he said. “The only promise that I’ll make today to the Kansas City Chiefs and to the Kansas City Chiefs’ fans is that there will be no one in this league working harder than me to get this done. The ‘Patriots Way’ starts with hard work, discipline, and creating a culture where everyone is on the same page, everyone knows their role, everyone believes in the system, and everyone does their job. People understand their roles and they are selfless about their roles. That is the core of the ‘Patriots Way’.”
On how decisions were made in New England, Pioli said: “Bill had the final say in everything. However, it was a collaboration. I’m not sure I can think of many players that ever came into the program that Bill and I didn’t completely agree on. The amount of respect that he and I had for one another, if there was a disagreement, the respect for the other person led us away from that player. It was a true collaboration. It was one of the very unique experiences that I’ve had – where Bill and I would agree on certain things, but when we’d disagree, we didn’t have any issues. It was never a battle over ego with Bill and I. We were more honed in on coming up with the right answer, rather than his answer or my answer. It was more about the right answer. It was a true collaboration.”
