NFL Week 7, 2019: 5 Coaches on the hot seat

Are the Los Angeles Chargers on the verge of hitting the panic button?
For a team that earned a trip to the Divisional Round last season, expectations were rightfully high for the Chargers once again in 2019 in regards to continuing to be a top contender in the AFC.
When Los Angeles started the year off on a hot note with an impressive win over the Indianapolis Colts, the team appeared to be heading in the right direction before going on to lose four of their next five games.
Last weekend’s loss at home to the Pittsburgh Steelers in which this looked like a road contest for the Chargers is the perfect example of how things have been over the last month or so.
And as a result, Anthony Lynn finds himself on the hot seat for the first time in 2019 since it would be a shame to let a year with a playoff-caliber roster go to complete waste.
Luckily for Lynn, the Chargers happen to face another struggling team in the Tennessee Titans during Week 7, but even this game is far from a guarantee.
Even more frustrating, with the Kansas City Chiefs recently losing two games in a row, Los Angeles keeps missing out on the perfect opportunity to gain ground in the AFC West standings.
