COSTA MESA, Calif. -- One of Anthony Lynn's first orders of business when hired as the head coach for the Los Angeles Chargers in January 2017 was a face-to-face meeting with franchise quarterback Philip Rivers.
The two got together at Chargers Park in San Diego, where Lynn stated his primary goal for Rivers: Curb the turnovers.
Along with leadership and a strong work ethic, Lynn viewed taking care of the football as the priority for his franchise quarterback.
"I thought it was important to have that conversation," Lynn said. "We just talked about how I see things, my philosophy and kind of what I wanted our identity to be -- and we were on the same page.
