Odds for Chargers’ Brandon Staley to win NFL Coach of the Year in 2021

Chargers head coach Brandon Staley is already being highly regarded.

Chargers head coach Brandon Staley has not even made his debut yet, but he is already being highly regarded.

The betting odds for 2021 NFL Coach of the Year recently came out and Staley is tied for the second-best odds to win the prestigious award, with Browns’ Kevin Stefanski being the favorite.

Staley is tied with Rams’ Sean McVay, 49ers’ Kyle Shanahan, Chiefs’ Andy Reid and Dolphins’ Brian Flores at +1600, per BetMGM.

That means if you bet $100 now and Staley earns the honors at end of the season, you take home $1600.

Even though he has never been a head coach, there’s reasons to believe Staley will have success.

With the roster that Los Angeles boasts after all the additions this offseason, paired with his ability to get the best out of his players, Staley is capable of taking this team to the top.

Only time will tell how he does in the new role.

Don’t bet on Adam Gase to win Coach of the Year in 2020

The New York Jets head coach is tied for the worst odds to win the 2020 AP NFL Coach of the Year award.

Don’t bet on Adam Gase winning the Coach of the Year Award in 2020.

The Jets head coach has the worst odds out of any head coach in the league, according to BetOnline. Gase is tied with Bill O’Brien and Doug Marrone at 50:1 odds to win the 2020 Associated Press Coach of the Year.

After starting his inaugural season with Gang Green at 1-7, Gase found himself on the hot seat just eight games into his second head coaching job. From there, Gase was able to rally the Jets to a 6-2 record in their final eight games, finishing 7-9 on the season. Still, the Jets offense ranked dead last, or close to it, in most major categories.

With Gase calling the shots on offense, the Jets offensive unit ranked 31st in points per game, 32nd in yards per game and 32nd in yards per play. If offensive struggles persist in 2020, his seat will only grow hotter. With Joe Douglas adding multiple reinforcements on the offensive line, there is no longer an excuse for the Jets offense to be stuck in a standstill.

There is not a lot a leeway for Gase with the Jets having the second-toughest strength of schedule in 2020. Right now, Gase is more than a longshot to bring home the 2020 AP Coach of the Year award. Even though Gase was able to right the ship following a disastrous start, he hasn’t exactly inspired a lot of confidence in his ability to be a top head coach. In four seasons at the helm of the Dolphins and the Jets, Gase has a record of 30-35.
