Trevor Lawrence TNF Props & Coach of the Year Predictions

Hey, what are your best picks for week nine of the NFL? I mean, we're going to know how my week nine goes by like midnight tonight because I got a lot of money on Trevor Lawrence to not throw an interception. So we're going to hope that that's the case here. He's been trending in the right direction. He is the top ranked. Their passer rating, he has the top passer rating in the entire NFL. I don't think most people would kind of know that. Baltimore's pressure has been hit and miss. It's been more missed than hit lately. They're blitzing more, getting pressure less. Obviously not a good combination there. And if Jacksonville's running away with this game in a 10-point spread, which suggests that that's going to happen, that's kind of where I would go there. So Trevor Lawrence is no interception. Clear, far and away, my favorite pick of the week. I got a question for you. Do you think Ben Johnson, That Ben Johnson of the Chicago Bears could win Coach of the Year based on what happens tonight. If we see Baltimore flame out with a backup quarterback in a chaotic situation, we saw Chicago go out there with Case Keenum, beat a team in Philadelphia that we thought was pretty good, and now obviously Chicago is moving in the right direction. A lot of things kind of stacking up in his favor. What do you think about the Bears and Ben Johnson? How about this here too, Kyle? I think it comes down to two men then, because let's say that John Harbaugh wins on Sunday with his third quarterback and you've got Ben Johnson on what he did. And now look at also, you're talking about a guy a year ago who was 55% completion percentage in Caleb Williams. Now he's up near 71 when it comes to completion percentage of what What his influence has been. I think it will come down to those two guys, but most notably, probably Ben does end up winning that coach of the year. That leads me to this question too. How about the influence you think that Liam Coen has had? On Trevor Lawrence, I mean, if you look at those awful coaches that he had, he had Urban Meyer, who I like to call Urban Meyer. He had him at the beginning, because it's a Gator thing, by the way, just so everyone's keeping score out there. And then, you know, it kind of rocked him back and forth a little bit with Doug Peterson. But the influence that Liam Coen has had on Trevor Lawrence, I mean, you see it when he gets out there. He's getting better and better each and every single week. Yeah, I mean, we saw it a little bit last year. He had the best QBR of his career. And he came out of college, came out of Clemson as the golden child, right? We all thought this was in there. And then at the bumpy beginning, Urban Meyer, like you said, it was just a mess. It was never made for anybody. And I don't think that was a Trevor Lawrence issue, but there was kind of shrapnel, right? I mean, the quarterback's going to wear a lot of that blame, just like the coach does. So when you get the coach right, I don't really care that it takes until year six. Like, better late than never, right? There's a lot of these franchises out there. Look at the one in New York, not wearing Giants colors. They would die for a quarterback like that. They would die to hit on that, even if it took six years to get there. Trevor Lawrence looks like the real deal. He looks now like what we wanted him to look like coming out of college, so it shouldn't be that much of a surprise. Liam Cohen gets a lot of credit for that.
