ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Anthony Lynn always wanted this opportunity. But did he think it would come at this moment? Not a chance.
The Buffalo Bills' newest offensive coordinator admitted this week that his head was spinning after Rex Ryan's decision to fire Greg Roman saddled Lynn with the daunting task of preparing the reeling Bills offense for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals.
The Cardinals' defense ranked fifth in the NFL last season. The last time Lynn called plays in the NFL was in a preseason game during his stint as the Jaguars' running backs coach from 2003-04.
