Time to cut ties

Prior to the game, Anthony Lynn had done enough to show that he’s not worthy of staying around as the team’s head coach anymore. But the shutout loss was the cherry on top.

While he’s coveted for keeping his players motivated, the scoreboard should be indicative of how motivated the guys were. Most importantly, the decision-making deficiencies were on full display, most notably on special teams and keeping Herbert in the game.

Lynn is a good person and is good with running backs, but he is not a good head coach. Owner Dean Spanos and company need to do the right thing and fire Lynn now rather than later. The longer they hold off, the more that they’re doing a disservice to the fans.
