Re: Smith Edges Dungy for Coach of Year
Come on now, how many people thought the Colts were going to the playoffs? Everyone I presume. Now, how many though Chicago would muster more than 8 wins? Bears fans and that's about it. Smith deserved to win. Kudos.

Chicago had an incredible defense and played in the weakest division in football. Sure, Smith did well, I just don't agree that he "really" deserved it more than Dungy. Dungy probably killed his chances losing 2 games in a row late in the season, but, such is life! |

Smith deserves it. BUT, I think they should vote AFTER playoffs.

--The NFC West was the weakest division in football, not the north...the Seahawks were good but other than them, nobody in that division was over .500 and the second place team had 6 wins. Smith deserves it, no question. Took the Bears to an 11-5 record (and the fifth loss they didn't play any starters) with literally almost nothing from the passing game. Sure Detroit and GB stunk but the Bears did beat Carolina and Tampa and were very close to beating the Redskins with a rookie QB making his first start. Dungy deserves some credit yes but with that team, it would have been a crime had he not made the playoffs...they are extremely talented on both sides of the ball. |
