Coach Hot Seat Rankings Week 4 1/2 edition (after the Thursday Night game)
1. NATHANIEL HACKETT, Broncos. Yep, it's his first year, but this, this must all end. He's brutal and I don't know if Russ is bad or if Hackett doesn't know how to use him, but Nate didn't cost a quarter of a billion and 5 draft picks, so guess who could be gone very very soon?
2. MATT RHULE, Panthers - The writing is on the wall. It's not getting better. It's not working. His resume was limited to begin with, he will be coaching at a Power 5 school next year (it could be Power 4 by then)
3. FRANK REICH, Colts. Another slow start puts what looks like a talented team in a hole. If he had lost vs. Denver last night, he might have been out today. He owes Nate Hackett a beer.
4. RON RIVERA, Commanders - Riverboat Ron is taking on water and the team just isn't getting better. Likable guy, but this just isn't working. That whole organization is a mess.
5. KLIFF KINGSBURY, Cardinals - All the teams in the NFC West are 2-2 - so they are tied for first, but he needs to do something he's never done before - finish strong - to come back next year. (I don't understand why they hired him in the first place).
Sean-O-Meter. Where does Sean Payton end up?
1. Denver
2. Arizona
3. Anywhere but Washington (ownership is a toxic waste dump)
