The Bears and Patriots have new coaches, both expected to be successful.
Chicago hired within the division this offseason, nabbing Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson to take over its outfit.
Johnson created a dominant offense in Detroit during his tenure there, and the Bears are hoping the same formula will work in their building.
On the other hand, Mike Vrabel will take over in New England after Jerod Mayo was fired following just one season as the Patriots’ head coach.
Check out the early odds for next season’s Coach of the Year at DraftKings Sportsbook as of June 26.
NFL Coach of the Year 2025 odds
Ben Johnson: +600 (bet $10 to win $70 total)
Mike Vrabel: +600 (bet $10 to win $70 total)
Liam Coen: +1400 (bet $10 to win $150 total)
Sean Payton: +1400 (bet $10 to win $150 total)
Pete Carroll: +1700 (bet $10 to win $180 total)
Matt LaFleur: +1800 (bet $10 to win $190 total)
Jim Harbaugh: +1800 (bet $10 to win $190 total)
Dave Canales: +1800 (bet $10 to win $190 total)
Aaron Glenn: +1800 (bet $10 to win $190 total)
Mike Macdonald: +2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total)
Jonathan Gannon: +2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total)
Dan Campbell: +2200 (bet $10 to win $230 total)
Three of the four top names on the odds board are new faces in new places, including one returning head coach. The other two are first-time head coaches.
But no new coaching name is bigger than Johnson’s heading into next season.
Johnson spent the last three seasons as offensive coordinator for the Lions, and during that time, the Detroit offense became a juggernaut.
It finished fourth in total offense in 2022 (380), third in 2023 (394.8) and second in 2024 (409.5). In addition, the Lions led the league in points per game (33.2) this past season.
Now, Johnson will join forces with the No. 1 pick from the 2024 NFL Draft, Caleb Williams. And according to the Bears’ new head coach, he and his new QB are already finding a rhythm when it comes to communication.
The Bears have finished last in the NFC North in each of the last three seasons, putting together an overall record of 15-36 over that time span.
After beginning last season 4-2, Chicago went 1-10 over its last 11 games.

However, oddsmakers see Mike Vrabel tied for the favorite to win the Coach of the Year award.
As a player, Vrabel won three rings with the Patriots and is a member of the New England Patriots Hall of Fame.
As a head coach, he spent six seasons with the Tennessee Titans, from 2018-2023, compiling a 54-45 overall record.
The Titans made three playoff appearances under Vrabel before enduring losing seasons in each of his final two years with the franchise.
Oddsmakers also view Liam Coen, the first-time head coach of the Jaguars, and returning Broncos head coach Sean Payton as tied for the third favorites to win Coach of the Year at +1400.

Bill Belichick’s UNC Debut Exposed Flaws — But It’s Too Soon to Panic
Bill Belichick's debut as North Carolina's head coach might have been the worst game of his head coaching career.The 48 points UNC gave up to TCU on Monday night were more than any Belichick-coached team gave up in any game during his 29 seasons as an NFL head coach. The 48-14 final was also tied for the second-largest margin of defeat in Belichick's head coaching career. After Belichick's Tar Heels committed a multitude of errors that allowed the Horned Frogs to score 41 straight points in Monday's game, FOX Sports lead college football analyst Joel Klatt admitted that he's a bit concerned about UNC. However, he has some hope that the six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach can work some of his magic, while getting some scheduling luck, to right the ship in Chapel Hill. "Am I worried about North Carolina? Yeah, a […]

Os vários recados de Ancelotti para Neymar
O técnico Carlo Ancelotti deu uma série de recados para o atacante Neymar, além de responder, com tranquilidade e em bom português, ao comentário do craque sobre a ausência na convocação. Em entrevista coletiva nesta quarta-feira antes do jogo com o Chile, o italiano enumerou algumas prerrogativas para eleger 25 dos 70 atletas que disse serem convocáveis pelo Brasil. Entretanto, ao elencar a qualidade dos mesmos em primeiro lugar, lembrou que pode chamar jogadores por seu melhor encaixe no coletivo como critério anterior ao nível técnico. - Os recados são: qualidade, primeiro. Depois, estar 100% fisicamente. E que encaixem bem para a equipe. Que joguem para a equipe, não para o individual. Eu escalo um jogador com menos qualidade que outro mas mais efetivo para a equipe - , disse Ancelotti. Antes, o treinador afirmou que a ausência de Neymar […]
