I’m not sure we could have expected the Chargers to stay out of the basement of power rankings much longer. After their ninth loss of the season, the Bolts dropped four spots to land at #28 in their latest list.
Apart from the ranking, each of the team’s beat writers also included a player/coach with “the most at stake” at this time of the season. Unsurprisingly, that person is head coach Anthony Lynn.
“Lynn has been on the hot seat for the past few weeks, with questions about clock and game management,” says beat writer Shelley Smith.
