1. It seems like there's some unrest around Jay Heaps' position at the club. Could he get the axe?

It's always possible but that's not usually how the Krafts operate. Heaps did an amazing job taking over a bad team years ago and returning to the MLS Cup Final. But the team has plateaued/regressed since the 2014 season and there's a number of reasons why and I don't think Heaps is to blame for all of them. The Revs having the smallest roster in MLS and lack of a USL team/affiliation agreement are all places where the Revs organization are falling behind in MLS and that doesn't fall all on Heaps' shoulders.
