I found this old article on MLS.com. It is very amusing in hindsight.

8 points in 7 games threshold

Going back to 2011, there have been 28 teams that have not hit eight points through seven games. Of those 28 teams, only three have made the playoffs (see data below).

New York Red Bulls, D.C. United, New York City FC, Vancouver Whitecaps, Seattle Sounders and Houston Dynamo have failed to reach eight points in their first seven games and should be concerned about their chances of making the playoffs.

The Chicago Fire currently sit on six points through their sixth game. They will have a chance to get to nine points through seven games with a win vs. United on Saturday (5 pm ET on MLS LIVE).

i think only vancouver is officially out ....houston i think has games in hand and can still technically make it though the chances are slim
 
Anyone who bets on MLS games has a gambling problem.
