Given his team’s recent history, Anthony Lynn turned to what the players of today might consider ancient history.
Next month will mark the 20th anniversary of one of the most notable and least sensible losses of Lynn’s career.
“That’s a game where we felt like if we played them 10 times we’d beat them 10 times,” the Chargers coach recalled. “But we got beat that day.”
That was the lesson Lynn made sure to share with his players last week, a timely reminder that even NFL teams 100% convinced they’re going to win can lose.
