KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — If Todd Haley looks across the field at Mike Tomlin on Sunday afternoon and feels a twinge of envy, could anybody blame him?



It does seem as though opportunity is served in silver goblets to some people, while others pick through shards and scraps.



Haley's grueling maiden voyage as a head coach in the NFL has been marked by failure, controversy, frustration and setback. He took over the woebegone Kansas City Chiefs, a franchise which had won only six games in two years, and it's been rough sailing for the former Steelers water boy.



But Tomlin stepped happily into Bill Cowher's shoes in Pittsburgh and found a perfect fit. He won the AFC North his first season and the Super Bowl his second.



Tomlin takes bows. Haley takes shots.
