With two weeks played is it too early to speculate on who’s going to get fired? Probably! That doesn’t stop it from being fun. Using a predicted xPoints model we can dig into what results have been good, which have been poor, and what is likely for the future. So who’s on the hot seat?

Phil Neville

Seat Temperature: Smoldering

He’s going to be on sack watch until the summer. If by some miracle he survives, he’s probably going to survive the year. Portland had an unexpectedly good performance against the Crew to open the season, but laid an egg on the road against Colorado. They’ve performed in line with expectations to start the year but meeting those expectations will still get him fired.
