Belichek - Coach of the Year? No.

[White Shogun]

If the Patriots go 16-0, how can someone even consider another coach besides Belichek?

In fact, even if the Patriots run the regular and postseason tables and go 19-0, Belichick might discover it was easier to claim a fourth Super Bowl championship in seven years than to be cited as the league's best head coach. Consider this: In an informal and confidential poll of nine general managers, personnel directors and pro scouts this week, with each of them asked to name three coaches who have turned in outstanding efforts in 2007, and in no particular order of preference, there were 10 coaches mentioned.

They'll probably give it to someone with the proper pigmentation. Going 19-0 and winning his 4th Super Bowl in years is fine. But doesn't Belichek lack that certain something that Dungy, Herm Edwards and Romeo Crennel have?

Must be white skin privilege.

Spygate, obviously.

Belichick wins the award. I'm very surprised Tony Dungy received only one vote. One of ESPN's writers recently made a case for Dungy over the rest of the field. I gues his halo is losing it's lustre.
