NFL coach of the year: Mike Vrabel a sure thing?

He's leading in the odds currently. Who else would you argue is more deserving?

Much more interesting decision here. Maybe five or six guys deserve it this year. I like Shanahan but I’m a biased SF fan. His offensive schemes are genius.

The Bears were *awful* last year. Their turnaround is incredible.

I always thought he was one of the best at getting the most from the weakest rosters.

He has totally changed the trajectory and attitude of the Jaguars, even if we are a small market team.

No one saw THIS coming. The Jags and Da Bears benefited from scheduling that reflects their horrible seasons last year but no one saw 10 wins let alone possibly 13.

As a Jags die hard fan from day , I loathe the Titans and always love to put a beat down on them!

early in the season when appearances, even on the field, were that Cohen and Trevor Lawrence were not on the same page, to put it mildly. They seemed to have overcome that.

Shanahan and his staff have handled a lot of injuries on D and could end up the #1 NFC seed.

Johnson in Chicago has done a very good job but they had a really easy schedule.

Coen also had an easy schedule but the Jags came out of nowhere and could be the #1 seed in the AFC.
