8. Coach of the year

Usually goes to the coach of the most surprising team in the NFL in a season. Commanders coach Dan Quinn would be the front runner. You could make a case that Dan Campbell has been a better coach this year, sure; you could also make the case that Steelers coach Mike Tomlin has done wonders making a team with a depleted offensive line get to 9-2. But even though the award says "Coach of the Year" it usually is given to the most surprising team.

There are still seven weeks left in the season, and that's a very long time. But right now, I don't think anyone can deny Detroit their Super Bowl. Their fans deserve it, and their team looks better than anyone else for some time now. Given that my Bears aren't going to the postseason (despite looking better today than they have for the last month), I'm rooting for the Lions.
