So Jr got impressed with the leadership style of Lynn, he showed strength or whatever in the interview and little Johnny D was like "thats our guy, he is a leader" because Norv and Visor kind of gave off an attitude of blandness. Hell, even at their Monday press briefings, I swear Norv and McCoy wore button down plaid type shirts - nothing with the Chargers logo. Just a button down shirt. So yes, Lynn probably was a 180 from those guys in how he interviewed.

Lynn might be a good leader, respected, demands respect but his game day coaching leaves a lot to be desired and that doesn't help with the W column.

I'm not sure how good of a leader he is. Maybe we get the wrong type of players, but you'd think that if they respected him that much they'd work at being smarter. The number of stupid decisions players are making this year is ridiculous. These are the types of things you don't see on good teams. Lynn seems like he's a player's coach. Trying to be one of the guys. Accountability is just not there.

if its just one player maiong mistakes a HC can replace him...... but when many players are undisciplined, then that is on the coaches....period..... that does not happen in PIT, NE, KC, NO......

I always thought Lynn was just a transition coach for the move to L.A, but resigning him made me scratch my head. I think they thought they found something when we went 12-4 then 5-11 lol.

That type of move doesn't mean anything. There have been many coaches who had an extension but still got fired later on.

Having your leader of men getting bitch slapped by Belicheck led teams in two years is enough to give anyone pause for thought! lol!

Is everyone aware that Anthony Lynn does not address the team before a game? Because Anthony Lynn is a glorified gym teacher.

We were expecting half-time adjustments, when this current coach doesn't even address the team and the owner's kid is picking the players to boot? SPANOSBALL

The 48-year-old Lynn was one of six candidates interviewed by the Chargers. Sean McDermott, Matt Patricia, Mike Smith, Dave Toub & Teryl Austin.

Chargers director of football operations John Spanos, however, said he believes the franchise got the right man to lead them, saying he was impressed with Lynn during the initial interview.

"You can tell right away he has this authentic leadership to him," said Spanos, who had final decision on the head-coaching hire for the first time in his relatively new role. "He's a no-nonsense guy, and he's real genuine. He's a guy that you can just picture leading this team, and the guys buying in and playing hard for him."

In the last two games against Bill Belichick, the Chargers have been down 28 at the half.

We are aware now. Wow. I would have never guessed that. What does this guy think his job is? You get 16 chances a year to put the best team on the field you can. He acts like it's another day at the office.

Wow...does this mean Lynn also does not give a post-game speech, when he awards the "game ball?"...
