I agree with you, that Belicheck maybe should've been left off because of this scandal, but look at what he's done:

Taken them to an undefeated season

Made them the highest scoring offense in history

Dealt with Randy Moss (a somewhat distraction on the sideline)

Helped that aging defense still look good (4th in yardage allowed)

And made the perfect system to fit Brady, Moss, Welker, and Stallworth

Look, I wouldn't give it to Crennell, because earlier in the year, he said that he would have to flip a coin to see who his starting QB was. Now after week 1 they trade the starter, and make Anderson the starter. Anderson has looked stellar, but why didn't he notice in the preseason? I can't give it to him for that (even though he's done a good job with rebuilding that team).

Mccarthy meanwhile either rejuvinated Favre, or Favre rejuvinated the Packers. I think Favre started playing well, and then the entire team started to follow. But I won't lie, he has helped that team defensively to be one of the better teams.

But other than the undefeated season, the reason Bellicheck won it, was because he was the best at inspiring his team, and keeping them motivated.

Oh no, you're right man, you know what the Pats should do with Bellickeck, they should just get rid of him, all that talent, heck Bellickeck is just wasting cap room.........

You could have all the talent in the world and not win, you still need a coach to call the plays, a coach to lead the team, a coach to motivate the team, a coach to find out what the team is doing wrong. The coach is still needed.

"This a world where most all people focus on the bad things that happen..."

Yeah, like when people focus on spygate, dude it's over, let it go, he had the greatest season a coach can have with an undefeated season. And anyway, spygate should make him get rid of all the awards he had before this season (since that's when most of the "cheating" took place). Bellicheck deserved it, his team had the best season of all time, and he lead them to it.

Plus if I told you the Pats would go undefeated, you would go, "No way" you would say that Moss would go crazy, and start to slack off. You would've said the aging defense would've killed them, but Bellicheck pulled it off.

Every one you mentioned was deserving, but an undefeated season is almost impossible to have.

You never did say to cut him, but you said it was mostly the talent, so the coach shouldn't really matter, if it's mostly talent.

Look, as I said earlier, COY is given to the person is smartest with his team, inspires them the most, and ultimately leads them to a positive season. How can a man who FLIPS A COIN FOR THE STARTING QB be awarded the coach of the year.

Once again I say to you young man, let it go.....
Spygate is over, you can't bring it up now, do you know how much it takes to recover from the entire league thinking you're cheaters? Do you understand that the NFL was watching them even HARDER after this? I find it almost impossible that they were still cheating, but Bellickeck lead them to an undefeated season.

And don't talk to me about the teams didn't have playmakers

BROWNS:
Derek Anderson
Braylon Edwards
Joe Thomas
Jama; Lewis (did a whole lot better than with the Ravens)

PACKERS:
Brett Favre (The greatest QB ever to this point)
Donald Driver
Greg Jennings
Ryan Grant
Charles Woodson

Every good team has playmakers, Bellicheck didn't cheat this year, and if he did, how do we know that every other coach didn't?
