Love it. Former Niner '95-'96. Former NFL HC and RB coach and OC.
Can take over for Bobby Turner when he's finished, since he's 72 now.

It's likely that Turner is here longer than Lynn.

This is great. Bringing in an adult mature voice. Fantastic. Good run guy. But I was hoping to add a pass-first guru. How is this guy's air game?

With all the wide open WRs we have each week, it's clear the passing scheme is fine.

If McDaniels doesn't get the Miami job this Lynn hiring doesn't make a lot of sense bc McDaniel is already our run game coordinator. Do you think the Dolphins told him most likely the job is his if he wants it? (I know they are still going for a 2nd interview with Moore)

Lynn is the AHC, not the OC.

And how much of an OC really is McD? Sure he helps Kyle but…

And titles mean nothing. He could do a little OC and a little VP duties.

I still think this points to a hire in Miami is coming. But again it just feels like that. Don't slam me if he doesn't.

Great addition.

Here's Kyle Shanahan speaking on Anthony Lynn from a few years ago.

Their relationship goes back 20 years when Shanahan was a ball boy for Denver, where Lynn was a running back. pic.twitter.com/z6K5WUv5ac

I'm just happy Kyle found someone who can call plays in the 4Q now.

Usually from folks who think racism doesn't exist or that it's a joke if it's brought up.

If someone openly chooses to joke or be sarcastic about racism, especially during a week when issues have been brought forward... weeeell.
