Browns Coach Odds

Kevin Stefanski, who tested positive for COVID-19 on Tuesday, can’t just hop on Zoom to call plays for the Cleveland Browns on Sunday in the Wild Card round of the playoffs against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Browns are not allowed to set up a command station in Stefanski’s home so that he can stay involved in the team’s play-calling or decision-making.

The NFL instituted rules during the pandemic for a situation like this one. Stefanski cannot contact the coaching staff on Sunday, and he cannot partake in any part of the in-game coaching process during game day.

The Browns will be without their Coach of the Year candidate, a heartbreaking realization ahead of their first playoff game since 2002. Stefanski is not the only Browns coach likely to miss the game due to COVID-19 protocols. The offensive line coach, the receivers coach, the tight ends coach and the defensive backs coach are likely to miss the game, too. Special Teams Coordinator Mike Priefer will act as the head coach, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

With the Browns in a terrible spot, fans couldn’t help but dream about Stefanski’s involvement on Sunday.

We saw a similar situation in late December when Detroit Lions interim head coach Darren Bevell missed a game due to COVID-19 protocols. Bevell told reporters he could be available to work remotely with the team until game day, when he was unable to make any contact with other coaches. That left first-time play-callers Sean Ryan, a quarterbacks coach, and Evan Rothstein, the head coach assistant, to take the lead on offense and defense, respectively. The Lions lost to the Buccaneers, 47-7.

1. That's a total of 14 NFL teams with better odds to win the Super Bowl than the Patriots, who employ the greatest coach of all time but are +3000 to win their seventh championship. Meanwhile, Brady's Bucs are tied for the third-best odds at +1200, trailing Chiefs and Green Bay Packers.

The Browns have to hope for a different result this weekend.

The 2020 NFL season is still months away, but it isn’t too early to look ahead to who might be the next NFL Coach of the Year.

2020 Coach of the Year best bets

Belichick (+1000) is the favorite for a reason. The Patriots have had unprecedented success and, if they continue to be good without QB Tom Brady, it will only add to Belichick’s legacy. He could tie Don Shula by winning the award for the fourth time.

The award is about performance vs. expectations, and a coach gets credit if his team far exceeds expectations. Which teams are in position to do that?

For that reason, the Cowboys’ McCarthy (+1400), beginning his first year with Dallas, is one of the favorites to watch.

However, if there is one pick that makes sense, it is Kingsbury. The Cardinals are vastly improved on defense and many believe QB Kyler Murray can have a second season that rivals what Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes and Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson have done. The Cardinals, coming off a five-win season, could be a surprise. If they win 10 games or more, KINGSBURY (+1600) is a good bet.

The Bucs’ ARIANS (+2000) is another good bet because of the addition of Brady. Tampa Bay won seven games with QB Jameis Winston throwing 30 interceptions last season.

Likewise, with the addition of Philip Rivers at quarterback, the Colts’ REICH (+1600) is another good bet. They already have the defense and if Rivers can be what he has been in his career, the Colts could dominate the AFC South.
