CBS NFL reporter Jason La Canfora said Monday morning that he thinks Mike Tomlin is definitely a worthy NFL Coach of the Year candidate and would be justified in winning it.
La Canfora isn't the first, third or even 10th football analyst, media member or observer I have heard make this claim over the last week or so. I have heard it from national guys on the hot-take shows. I've heard it from the guys doing the games. I've heard it even from some local media members.
And every time I hear it, I get dumber — and lord knows I can't afford to get dumber. Tomlin as coach of the year in a year when his team didn't make the playoffs?
