Who do you think will win it?
I think the following coaches are possible candidates:
Jim Harbaugh: Took a six win to a team that will potentially be the #2 seed in the playoffs.
Mavin Lewis: I was going to say he was part of the 2 headed race earlier in the year, but the Bengals have lost their steam. By the end of the year, the Bengals might not have one win vs a winning team.
Gary Kubiak: This team was a SB team with all their players healthy imo. Instead, Kubiak has had to deal with Mario Williams being out for the year, Andre Johnson being a pussy/only playing about 4 games, Foster being out for the beginning of the season, and now playing with a 3rd string rookie QB. With that being said, the Texans are now a 10 win team, and have clinched the playoffs for the first time in franchise history.
John Fox: Sucked it up, and completely changed his offensive scheme for an unorthodox QB. The Broncos are now rolling with Tebowmania.
Mike McCarthy: The Packers go undefeated, it would be hard to say he doesn't deserve it.
Patty boy Shurmur: No matter what, this guy has shown mental toughness by sticking to his WCO scheme!
My vote would go to McCarthy if the Packers finish undefeated. If not, my vote would go Kubiak, followed by Harbaugh.

If the Texans keep winning with TJ Yates it has to go to Kubiak.

Yep. But if Pack go 16-0 then you almost have to give it to McCarthy.

If Packers go undefeated its a toss up between McCarthy and Harbaugh. If not, I think it should be Harbaugh.
Edit: They are in a race for second place behind the obvious choice, Shurmur.

Yeah, maybe. He's lucky enough to have, by far, the best player in the NFL. Kubiak is winning with smoke and mirrors at this point.

I realize this. I'm not saying McCarthy isn't deserving. I just think, given what each coach has to work with, that Kubiak deserves it if he keeps winning games.

Kubiak definitely deserves it, but it would be hard for me not to vote for a guy who was perfect in the regular season. I think this is how most voters will approach their vote too.

I don't disagree with you that McCarthy will win if they go 16-0. And of course, my argument becomes invalid if the Texans stop winning.
