"The Commanders took a massive leap of faith by promoting David Blough to replace Kliff Kingsbury as offensive coordinator. Two more promotions have also occurred in-house, which speaks to the desire for alignment alongside fresh schematic ideas. It's a gamble that could go either way. And the Commanders may have to move forward without Anthony Lynn, who is being coveted by the Buffalo Bills after their decision to fire Sean McDermott."
"Former Bills assistant head coach and current Commanders run game coordinator Anthony Lynn - a finalist for the Buffalo head coaching job in 2017 that went to Sean McDermott - is scheduled to interview for the Bills head coach job Saturday, per a league source. Back in 2017, Lynn landed the Chargers head coaching job instead and posted a 33-31 record in the midst of the team's relocation to LA. Since then, Lynn has studied under coaches such as Dan Campbell, Kyle Shanahan and Dan Quinn."
The Commanders expect additional staff changes once Dan Quinn finalizes a defensive coordinator. The team promoted David Blough to offensive coordinator after Kliff Kingsbury's departure and elevated two more coaches internally to improve schematic alignment. The internal promotions aim to blend continuity with new offensive ideas but carry risk. Run game coordinator Anthony Lynn has drawn interest from the Buffalo Bills and is scheduled to interview for their head-coaching vacancy, creating the possibility of his departure. Lynn previously served as Chargers head coach, posted a 33-31 record, and has studied under coaches including Dan Campbell, Kyle Shanahan and Dan Quinn. The team must prepare contingency plans.
