The job of an NFL head coach doesn’t come with much job security unless you’re Bill Belichick and have a couple of shiny Super Bowl rings on your fingers. One bad season could erase the memories of a successful tenure to that point and any division titles or playoff success fades after a disappointing season.

Head coaches are perpetually on the hot seat. Some more than others, but make no mistake about it, they all feel the heat at some point during the year.

Seven head coaches were given their walking papers in 2013, but I don’t think we see that many fired this season. Although I think it will be close.

Without further ado, here are the NFL hot seat rankings for the head coaches most likely to be fired this NFL season.

After reading through the list, please leave your thoughts and opinions on the names on the list in the comments section below. Tell me who you think is the coach sitting on the hottest seat, which coach is the most likely to keep his job from the names I have gathered and a name who should be listed that I omitted.
