Brian DaBoll won Coach of the Year in 2022, and he has a career 18-32-1 record.
Those awards don't mean you're considered the best in the league, just that you had notably good results that year, normally against expectations because they don't like giving it to the obvious winners to prevent the award from being stagnant. In reality it's often a "surprised us the most"/"most improved" award.
Bill Belichick went his final 14 years without winning CotY.
Kyle Shannahan has taken 2 different QBs to the SB, Jimmy G and a rookie Mr Irrelevant, and hasn't every won CotY.
Brett Veach has been the GM at KC since 2017, drafted Mahomes and created the teams that went to 7 straight AFCC games, 5 SBs, and won 3 of them... he's never won EotY.
