NFL: 5 head coaches unlikely to return next season

NFL head coaches are already feeling the heat just two weeks into the season

In a league where opinion sways by the quarter the head coach hot seat continuously burns with the heat of 1,000 suns.

Whether a coach has been in town for 10 weeks or 10 years criticism will be heaped upon him.

Here are five coaches that are already feeling the heat just two weeks into the new season.

Doug Pederson

Philadelphia has resented Pederson from day one for his playcalling in Kansas City under Andy Reid. Through 18 regular season games, the majority of the city is calling for his resignation following his atrocious game calling and bumbling press briefings.

Recent reports suggest the team hired Pederson knowing he was unfit to be their long-term answer, but rather just as a repairman following the departure of Chip Kelly.

The heat is being felt for incomprehensible playcalling dating back to last season. Pederson used rookie quarterback Carson Wentz as the lead-blocker on a run play immediately after coming out of the concussion protocol. Wentz also broke the rookie record with 379 completed passes while playing all 16 games in 2016.

In week two of Pederson’s second season, the team ran the ball 17 times to 46 pass attempts, with Wentz accounting four rushes of his own after scrambling away from the Chiefs. Players in the locker room questioned the lack of running and Pederson himself even admitted the playcalling needed work.

Case and point.
