Anthony Lynn said that he planned to remain the coach of the Chargers when he woke up following the team’s shutout loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
It appears that Lynn will resume his duties not only today, but for the remainders of the 2020 season.
According to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, the organization won’t make a decision on Lynn and his job status until after the season.
Despite the 45-0 loss to New England, Rapoport reports that there’s a ton of respect for Lynn’s leadership ability inside the building. Therefore, Los Angeles is allowing Lynn to run the team, at least for the final four games.
Sitting at 3-9, there’s no need to continue to evaluate the total body of work. The Chargers are already out of playoff contention and Sunday’s loss didn’t help his case to keep his job.
Fans want to see accountability now. Lynn is not the answer for L.A. and there’s nothing that he’s done the past two seasons to show that he’s worth keeping around any longer aside from some motivational speeches that aren’t even put to good use.
