The contract has increased his buyout from $8 million to $9 million this year." Edited January 5, 2021 by Shanedorf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I maintain my stance that Lewis would make a solid GM...but he is a terrible coach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario basically made everyone think Herbert was going to be a bust because of his offensive scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to go be a HC in college somewhere. He will be a great mentor to a lot of young men, but there isnt a team in the NFL that will hire him to be HC, nor even OC. I 100% agree. His style was out dated when the Chargers made the hire. It was basically the Chargers coming full circle since Marty was fired. Marty was a better coach, but their approach to the game was completely the same. They struck out on both the retread in Norv Turner and the new young hot OC in McCoy and went back to the safe, conservative, run first, leader of men. I also agree that Lynn should absolutely go to the college ranks. He would absolutely be a major positive influence on the young men that play in that program. When it comes to next season is anyone going to hire him in the NFL? If I were to lay money I would say no. But NFL coaching staffs are littered with people who failed as a HC or OC/DC just to be given another chance, after another chance, when they were then given yet another chance. So, I would be uncomfortable saying we will never see him in the NFL again. A high profile example of that is Adam Gase, who went from failed HC, right back to a HC who failed. Mike Nolan was still a DC this year. So in a couple years? Who knows. My saying Lynn could become a good HC, might have needed a bit more of an explanation. He would need to learn from his mistakes. He would need to change his approach to the game. He would need to change quite a bit. But his ability to lead a group of men isn't an issue. I know quite a few people in life, who at their first stop in their profession, failed. Only to become very good at it. Reflection and hindsight make a big difference, when you are not in the thick of it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An NFL HC is such a high profile gig these days that selling Lynn to a fanbase will be a monumental task. I don't know how he overcomes that perception from a coordinator role and without something concrete to hang his hat on, I don't see him being an NFL HC again. He'd certainly be better the 2nd time around, just not sure he'll get that chance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think it is that impossible. Just go over the recent coaches that got second chances as a HC. Some of them are downright terrible. Everything you said though was pretty much spot on.

Or if someone gives him another shot at OC, he might be able to build on that. He just went too quickly from RB coach the majority of his career to OC for less than a season to a HC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
