Eagles coach Nick Sirianni favorite to win NFL’s Coach of the Year award
Sirianni is now +300 to win the award, a rapid rise to the top of the list.
Heading into Week 3, Philadelphia Eagles coach Nick Sirianni was +900 to win NFL Coach of the Year over at BetMGM, a big jump after opening at +1600. A 2-0 start has that sort of impact.
Now 3-0, and with expectations on the rise, Sirianni heads into Week 4 as the favorite to take home the award for the league’s best coach. BetMGM’s updated odds have Sirianni at +300. The man he replaced in Philadelphia, Doug Pederson, is also on the rise after Jacksonville’s hot start.

No coach has seen a positive rise from season-opening odds to Week 4 quite like Sirianni. McDaniel also opened at +1600. A few coaches who opened with Sirianni and McDaniel at +1600 have seen their odds go in the opposite direction.
Lions coach Dan Campbell went from +1600 to +2500. 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan is now at +3000. Both Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett and Raiders coach Josh McDaniels opened at +1600 and are now all the way up to +10000.
BetMGM says nearly 10% of tickets on the award are on Sirianni. That’s behind only Campbell, who became a popular bet after the Lions were featured on HBO’s “Hard Knocks.”
The largest chunk of BetMGM’s handle (the amount of money bet) is on McDaniel (23.7%). Sirianni has 8.4% of the handle.
