NFL coaches on hot seat: What's next after four Week 10 losses

Seats around the NFL are always hot, and two head coaches already have been fired during the season. While there might be three or four truly untouchable coaches across the league, just about every other opportunity is one losing streak or change of heart away from disappearing. I don't like to root for anybody to get fired, but Sunday was a day in which the warmest seats in football had their temperatures rise even higher.

Let's break down those four performances, what went wrong and how they apply to each team's seasonlong issues. I'm not going to give a recommendation on whether these coaches should or should not be fired, but now's probably the time to start talking about whether these openings will become available between now and February.
