Dirty Dozen: (Almost) Time to Hand Out 2010 Awards

Filed under: ,

Tom Brady and Michael Vick

After reading the emotional reactions to Tom Coughlin four days after the Giants' meltdown against Philadelphia, I guess I won't vote for him for coach of the year, although ...

Almost every season, he belongs somewhere in the top five-to-10. As does Andy Reid, who is getting roasted for not challenging the "not down by contact'' call that led to the TD that gave the Giants a 31-10 fourth-quarter lead over Reid's Eagles. Imagine if the Eagles had lost ...

Anyway, as a voter on the NFL awards, I haven't made up by mind yet. For good reason. I used to help run the voting for the AP and in 1999, we counted ballots after 15 games. Brett Favre and Barry Sanders tied for MVP, then Sanders had a great final game and a bunch of voters would have changed, giving Brett one less trophy (he has three.)

But with the deadline Jan. 7, I'm thinking about it. And since it's fashionable these days to put thoughts out there for everyone to read (and rip), here are a few. Since there are seven awards, there are seven categories, not a dozen.
