William T. Ziemba and Leonard C. MacLean

Chapter 18 in Dr Z's NFL Guidebook, 2018, pp 315-343 from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: It is customary, after the regular season ends, to determine the MVP and other awards and to fire and hire new coaches and assistants and for players to change teams through free agency and other maneuvers. We start this chapter with the awards for the previous season. First there is the forecast of the winners and then a list of the actual winners. The rest of the chapter discusses coaches and players, free agencies, injuries, and the preseason draft plus the 25 greatest players for 2018-2019 season. We also do a case study of the Seattle Seahawks after the famous interception on the one yard line in Super Bowl 49.
