I saw a surprisingly high number of folks on twitter (including actual voters) touting Pete for COTY.

I loved the comparison between Arians/Carroll in 2012 and Jauron/Belichick in 2001. Arians gets an award that will be forgotten a few months from now, but Carroll will go down in history among the greats. I'll take that tradeoff.
Plus, it makes rooting against the Cardinals more fun.

Those of you who think Arians didn't deserve it at least as much as Carroll didn't follow the story. The guy stepped into an interim role and pulled that tea, together for a playoff season. Carroll deserved it too, but to say ignorant things like "Cancer won it" is pathetic. Arians did an amazing job.
Any other year Carroll probably wins, just like any other year Wilson probably wins OROY. Just how it fell this year, that there were a bunch of amazing jobs done by coaches and players and multiple people deserved to win.

Plus, it makes rooting against the Cardinals more fun. This I definitely thought of. Carroll is coach of the last three years but the gradual ascent of the team negates him from being coach of the year. _________________ Beast Mode...try BORG MODEDriver of the PC/JS Bandwagon since 2010

Hey, guess what? Carroll finished 3RD in the voting. Riddle me that.

Eh, Arians was deserving. He came into a difficult situation with a roster that didn't have much talent and finished the year with 11 wins and a playoff berth.
If we're going to say that Luck is overrated and didn't deserve all the OROY love he got this year, we have to believe that Arians did a great job.

If we're going to say that Luck is overrated and didn't deserve all the OROY love he got this year, we have to believe that Arians did a great job. The latter is the exact storyline I believe played out. The Colts were a great story this year and that story should have centered around Arians (his first year with the team I might add) and not Andrew Luck. _________________ Beast Mode...try BORG MODEDriver of the PC/JS Bandwagon since 2010

Anyway, to those that are interested in talking football, do you think that if Pagano would have been suspended, or been away for another reason other than cancer, that Arians wins?

The thoughtful, intelligent type? Please attack the post - not the poster. To answer your latter question - yes - absolutely. First year on the job he is forced to take over a team that was 2-14 the year before and guides them to 11 wins. A 9 win turn around for any coach is coach of the year material - let alone an assistant coach in his first year as a head coach and first year with the team. _________________ Beast Mode...try BORG MODEDriver of the PC/JS Bandwagon since 2010
