Sean McVay and the Los Angeles Rams were absolutely embarrassed by the Baltimore Ravens in Week 12.

Entering Monday’s contest, Sean McVay and the Los Angeles Rams knew their Week 12 meeting with the Baltimore Ravens was going to be one of the most difficult battles of 2019, but no one expected things to be this bad.

To say the Ravens absolutely embarrassed the Rams in front of their home crowd would be a huge understatement since Baltimore wasted no time putting up points against Los Angeles before going on to secure the 45-6 victory.

With Lamar Jackson continuing to build a strong case to take home MVP honors when the time comes down the road, the Rams clearly knew the key factor to winning this game would be keeping the Louisville product in check.

But after watching Jackson finish with five touchdown passes in this one, this just adds to the list of frustrations that have been surrounding Los Angeles over the last two months, and as a result of the struggles in 2019, it has put McVay on the hot seat.

After looking at all of the success surrounding McVay from the previous two seasons, some football fans would make the case how ridiculous it is to even consider the Rams coach being on the hot seat.

One year of missing out on the playoffs, that is if the Rams do miss out, wouldn’t seem like the end of the world for most teams, but McVay was responsible for leading a Los Angeles team with Super Bowl expectations back at the beginning of September.

Since starting off the 2019 season on a hot note with a 3-0 record, the Rams have now lost five of their last eight games following the Week 12 loss to the Ravens, and since it only seems fair to discuss, here are three reasons it’s time to consider McVay on the hot seat.
