Quite a few voters, including defensive coordinators who faced Indianapolis, credited Colts coach Shane Steichen for outstanding game plans. A defensive coordinator said "Daniel Jones is interesting. I think he showed that when you are not protected and you do not have all the answers given to you, it is hard to operate at this level of football." Another defensive coach said "Indy was perfect for him. The best thing he ever could have done was get with Shane. Steichen has the best mix of tempo versus non-tempo, versus huddle calls, versus 'Hey, listen, this one's on two, this one's on three.' He tells his quarterback how to change the pace of a game, and he does it as well as anybody right now."
