These are tough times for two of Nashville’s three major pro sports head coaches.

Titans coach Brian Callahan and Predators coach Andrew Brunette are each on the hottest of hot seats, according to sports betting website betonline.ag.

In odds released this week, Callahan tops the NFL list of “First Coach Fired,” while Brunette ranks No. 1 on the NHL list of “First Coach Fired.”

Callahan moved to the head of the class on the website after the Titans lost 26-0 to Houston in Week 4, leapfrogging Miami head coach Mike McDaniel, whose team won its first game over the weekend.

Callahan’s odds are listed as -275, meaning one would have to wager $275 on his being the first coach fired just to win $100.

Those closest to Callahan are McDaniel (+220), the New York Giants’ Brian Daboll (+1100), Carolina’s Dave Canales (+1200) and New Orleans’ Kellen Moore (+1800).

Under Callahan, the Titans are 3-18 over two seasons and have lost 10 straight games, tying the “Titans era” franchise record set in 2014. The team is 0-4 this season and has been outscored 120-51 in those contests.

Callahan earlier this week was asked if he had assurances from the organization that he would be retained for the entire season.

“Whether I do or I don’t … it doesn’t matter to me,” Callahan said. “My job is to try to put our team in position to win as many games as possible, and to keep coaching until the day comes that they don’t want me to coach here anymore.

“That’s the reality for everybody that coaches in the league. You don’t think too much about it. I don’t look for assurances. I can tell you I’ve always been supported here. I’ve always felt like the people that I have to work with on a day-to-day basis believe in what we’re doing and how we’re doing it. But again, I also know how the NFL works.”

Betonline.ag listed Brunette with the shortest odds (9/2) as being the first NHL head coach fired, meaning a $200 bet would net $900 if Brunette was fired first. Brunette was followed by the New York Islanders’ (11/2), Utah’s Andre Tourigny  (6/1), Ottawa’s Travis Green (7/1) and Buffalo’s Lindy Ruff (8/1).

Brunette was the runner-up in the NHL’s coach of the year voting following the 2023-24 season, when he guided an overachieving Predators team into the playoffs.

But the Predators bombed in 2024-25 despite adding high-priced free agents Steven Stamkos, Jonathan Marchessault and Brady Skjei.

Nashville (30-44-8) posted the third fewest wins and points (68) in the NHL last season, and the team’s points total was the third lowest in franchise history.

Brunette recently spoke to The Tennessean about his perceived hot seat status.

“I don’t think you can (think about being fired) and do a good job,” Brunette told the newspaper. “Billie Jean King said pressure is a privilege. I’m in this job because I love it, right? I want to do it. And with it comes a lot of these things and you have to accept it.”

The Predators open their 2025-26 season Oct. 9 at home against Columbus.

The third major pro sports coach in Music City has no such worries, as Nashville SC’s B.J. Callaghan has his MLS team in Wednesday night’s final of the U.S. Open Cup tournament.

With two games left in the regular season, NSC has already qualified for the playoffs, after finishing 13th in the league’s 15-team Eastern Conference in 2024.

Callaghan is likely to be among those considered when the MLS coach of the year voting takes place next month.
