Of course, the first coach who starts to make unusual decisions will not necessarily be rewarded for it. However, a mediocre coach could become a great one if he did.

Honestly, it seems like coaches tend to be over-conservative, so more aggressive play calling should be popular with the crowds, and maybe with Vegas as well.

I'd be curious to see what the average log of the effect of coaching decisions on the result is, rather than just the flat averages. It tilts the tables a bit, but I think it would draw a bit more attention if the coach rankings aligned better with the league standings.
