Just like player awards, NFL Coach of the Year is a race where the odds will fluctuate throughout the season.
For instance, on July 8, the preseason favorite to win the award was Bears coach Matt Eberflus, at +900. Now that Chicago is 3-2, his odds are down at +3500.
Instead, Kevin O’Connell is the favorite to win the award. And not only is he the favorite for the third consecutive week, his odds continue to get shorter.
Let’s check out the latest odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of Oct 8.
