Chip Kelly will win Coach of the Year
Again, this circles back to the predictions that I’ve outlined above. The Eagles are poised for a big year, and given how deeply Kelly has been involved in molding the roster, deciding the offensive/defensive schemes, creating various team programs, and overall installing the routines/culture of the organization, he’s a clear candidate given the team’s success. I have the Eagles taking the NFCE as well as home-field advantage, and Bradford coming away with the Comeback Player of the Year award. This alone should be enough for Kelly to take his first Coach of the Year award.
