By now, you have probably heard the news that former Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn is being hired by the San Francisco 49ers, joining the coaching staff under the position of Assistant Head Coach. My initial reaction when I heard the news? WOW. What a get for the 49ers. Lynn is highly respected around the league and comes into San Francisco as one of the most successful run game architects in recent memory.
Lynn has played an integral role in overseeing a number of successful rushing offenses over the last two decades, with a proven track record of finding success at nearly every stop he has made.
