What do you think of Lynn so far?

Running the ball is fine, except the blocking is just not there. Something is missing, high school teams can run around the end once in a while. We seem to think we can run up the middle and we can't so forget it and run some reverses, end runs, draws etc.

Some of that was to get the D stacked inside, so we could keep hitting the swing passes to Gordon. And even outside and off-tackle runs you have to block the D.

Do you really think that our OL are better blocking out on the perimeter than they are in tight quarters? They are bad in both areas. Calling different runs isn't going to make us a much better team. The swing passes are also essentially runs, and we got some decent yardage on those.

So after 3 games, we have Mike Riley, part 2. I would say Mike McCoy part 2 but I think we are actually worse than last year despite having fewer injuries.

The one thing that he does have is "presence" in front of the press, but that doesn't matter too much if no one is listening.

What presence is that? All I have heard after 4 preseason games and 3 regular season games that they are going to play Charger football and we are going to turn it around. Bottom line is that we are a very bad team and nothing is different from seasons past.

Agree. I'm not a fan of Lynn and I think that he was a bad hire. Just another cheap HC signing.

Would be nice to have a HC that could actually benefit the team on game day.

We have hired 2 straight coaches who have never been HCs before - and it shows.

In his (or anyone's who takes this gig) defense, it'd be nice to have players who benefit the team.

Yeah, and even in his 4th season as HC, McCoy still looked like he had never been a HC before.

[Coachmarkos]

After 3 games, still not a fan.

Jeez look what the Rams and Buffalo look like with new HCs. Totally changed the environment and outlook.

Lynn, same old Chargers.
