What is the meaning of the phrase "on the rocks" in this sentence?

Real Madrid 3-1 PSG

80. We are into the final ten minutes of the game. This has been turned on its head this game. Hakimi gets a yellow card for a late challenge. PSG are on the rocks now, much like Pochettino's job.

If a team are on the rocks it means that they are under real pressure and have lost control. Maybe they are defending deep.
