Anthony Lynn May Return To The Buffalo Bills Under Sean Mcdermott

... defensive coordinator Vance Joseph has now reportedly reached out to Mc Coy for his open offensive coordinator position. Given the weapons at Denver’s disposal on offense, it would be shocking to see Mc Coy still end up in Buffalo. However, should Mc Coy take the job with the Broncos, it would once again open up Mc Dermott’s offensive coordinator position. One person that could fill that position is the current offensive coordinator in Anthony Lynn. Despite having his name tossed around for head coaching jobs, there is little evidence that he is a major player for any of those positions. Should Lynn not get any of the open jobs remaining, he already stated that his main goal was to remain with the Bills. Having the support of the players and already knowing the offensive personnel, Mc Dermott could be tempted into keeping Lynn. Such a move would give him an early advantage as he tries to evaluate the team and find his footing. While the possibility remains that Anthony Lynn could get a head coaching job, his odds just became a whole lot longer in my opinion. Given his success in coaching this offense last season, why not give him another ...

... now be the Panthers defensive coordinator. While the Bills hire closed the door to the Redskins on Wilks potentially landing as Washington’s defensive coordinator, it opened another door. If Lynn had landed the Bills job, it was widely reported that former Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Gus Bradley would be named his defensive coordinator. Bradley interviewed with the Redskins on Wednesday. Despite trying to hammer out a deal while in Ashburn, no deal was struck. One reason could be is that Anthony Lynn remains a candidate for head coaching jobs. According to ESPN’s Josina Andrews, Lynn will interview a second time with the San Diego Chargers (soon to L. A., reportedly) and the Los Angeles Rams (already in L. A. via St. Louis). I'm told Anthony Lynn is "currently scheduled" for 2 nd interviews with the #Chargers & #Rams this week, per sources. — Josina Anderson (@Josina Anderson) January 12, 2017. Lynn’s interviews could be key in slowing the down the rapidly spinning carousel, not just for either the Rams or Chargers but also the Redskins, who also have offensive coordinator ...

Pegulas Expressed Remorse To Anthony Lynn About Tyrod Taylor Benching

... have a clue. I think the TV revenue should be divided up based on wins and losses. These owners are making so much money, they surround themselves with front office people that make them feel good, rather than front office people that know how to make the fans feel good. The only thing some of the owners know and care about is money. If money is tied to winning, then all the owners will prioritize winning. harrisonhits 2 says. Jan 8, 2017 12:27 PM. “Who the hell is Kim Peluga… And why is she involved in personnel decisions of a professional football team? Post her resume.”. The resume is short. “Self entitled wife of billionaire who thinks money = knowledge about football”. harrisonhits 2 says.

Lol Buffalo has had no hope for what, 18 straight years now with this season’s whiff. Futility thy name is Buffalo. ...

Chargers Reportedly Hiring Lynn, Patricia In Line To Stick With Patriots

... come up in discussions of the two LA head-coaching openings, he has said he appreciated the opportunity to interview. "To me, the fascinating part of all that is just kind of learning all the organizations and how they work because they are so different," he said earlier this week. "That's just kind of a general statement about the NFL. Sometimes as you kind of anchor in on what we do day in and day out, you never really look at that stuff on a full scale.". Patricia has now interviewed for head-coaching jobs in each of the last two seasons. During last year's playoff run, he interviewed with the Browns for their open gig, and it would come as no surprise if he garnered further consideration as a head coach down the road. As far as next season is concerned, having Patricia back as defensive coordinator would certainly provide the Patriots with a measure of continuity that they may lack in other areas. Patricia could oversee a defense in 2017 that has experienced a great deal of turnover as Dont'a Hightower, Alan Branch, Jabaal ...

Doug Whaley Contradicts Anthony Lynn But Isn't Worried About Perception Of Bills

... we had about Tyrod that day, but the final one was consulted with Anthony Lynn.". Said Lynn last Wednesday: "I don't know about that," Lynn said. "I wasn't in the meeting when that decision was made, so I don't know. That was not my decision, to not start Tyrod. "I can't speak for the owner, I can't speak for the GM. They have to speak for themselves.". Who made the decision isn't as important as the fact that Whaley essentially said Lynn didn't tell the truth. Whaley and ownership put Lynn in a difficult position to begin with by sending him out to face questions to which he didn't have answers. "I understand the narrative out there and I totally get it," Whaley said. "Anthony and I have talked and we're fine.". Lynn is considered one of the leading candidates for the job but is not considered a lock. After what has happened in the last week, Lynn has to ask himself whether this is a situation he wants to be a part of and a general manager with ...

Anthony Lynn Fights 'jacked Up' Criteria On Path To Head-coaching Job

... in the NFL in rushing yards per game (169) and yards per rush (5.6), sixth in third down conversion rate (43.1 percent) and fourth in red zone conversion rate (65.8 percent). On the flip side, teams considering Lynn will have trouble looking past the performance of the Bills' passing offense this season. The Bills rank 31 st in passing yards per game, 24 th in net yards per pass attempt (6.09) and 32 nd in sacks per pass attempt (11.7 percent) since Lynn took over. Working on the fly with Roman's playbook, Lynn has yet to correct some of the deficiencies in quarterback Tyrod Taylor 's game that might give the Bills pause about keeping Taylor as their starter next season. Veteran running back Reggie Bush , who has gained only five yards on 11 carries this season while playing on just 10 percent of offensive snaps, was complimentary Thursday of Lynn's abilities, but cautioned from his 11 years of NFL experience that Lynn might need more time to develop before making the next step to head coach.
