NFL Week 6, 2019: 5 Coaches on the hot seat
By Dan Parzych
2. Mike Tomlin
One can only imagine how frustrated Mike Tomlin and the Pittsburgh Steelers were feeling after suffering that heartbreaking loss in overtime to the Baltimore Ravens last Sunday, but wondering what could have been will get this team nowhere.
Most likely, the Steelers will take into consideration that Tomlin had to adjust on offense without Antonio Brown on top of losing Ben Roethlisberger early on with a season-ending elbow injury, meaning Pittsburgh could keep him around, and no one would be surprised.
However, the argument can also be made that Pittsburgh is still loaded with enough talent on both sides of the football in which the Steelers should have more wins than their record indicates.
After coming up short the way they did against Baltimore, Pittsburgh now shifts their attention to another tough battle on the road Sunday night when taking on the Los Angeles Chargers.
With the Chargers coming off a rough loss of their own, the Steelers could be out of luck if Los Angeles comes out firing to avoid digging a deeper hole in the AFC West standings.
If this happens, Tomlin and the Steelers could be looking at 1-5 entering Week 7, which no one could have predicted a few months back.
