Alk Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Lost in last night's Favre ball washing is the fact that little Philip Rivers has turned into one hell of an NFL qb. Okay now does anyone have a tictac? Seriously though, it seems that he has matured alot over the offseason not to mention he has one hell of an arm. I still can't stand the guy but he has impressed me so far this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anskyruben Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I am forced to watch him all year long here in SD. Don't fool yourself. He should've had 2 int's to start the game. We got lit up by one of the worst offenses in the league. Besides LT that team has poor receivers. Our defense was exposed for being a bunch of dirtbags . They got picked apart by a D+ offense.

SoFlaJets Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 why is it that so many people here last nite and today preface everything they say about Rivers with a "I hate him" anyway? I saw very good, clutch, young QB last night who converted every single important 3rd down AND LONG he had to Just because The Jets suck doesn't mean we can't appreciate a talented football player when we see one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JETSFAN5180 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Phillip Rivers is a dam good QB with a cannon for an arm.Give any decent QB quality WRs and time to throw and success happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anskyruben Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Like I said, I see almost every Bolt game and I attend quite a few. But if you guys want to ride his sack, go ahead. Our team is an abortion. That is the real problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't get a chance to watch him weekly... I understand that, but I see far more reason to flame Thomas Jones for getting stripped of the ball in a key possesion, the defense's weak play in the red zone and other factors in the game. Once you make the opposing QB think he can't be stopped, you are screwed. If he got picked for the 2nd time like he should've, he loses his confidence as he usually does, and it's game over. That what the Patriots do to SD everythime they play here. The demoralize the offense and Rivers will make key mistakes. Our team can't do that. Who do we blame for it ? I don't know. But we didn't lose because of our QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they really have a Transformer sound effect in the Thomas Jones bit? I didn't see it personally but heard someone talking about it. By the way, he's not a $hitty running back. He's had three straight 1,100+ yd. seasons. Just as k madmike. He'll tell you all about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are way bitter dude. Philip Rivers will be a star in this league. His record so far is 28-11. That is damn good, and he is only continuing to get better. Having attended all 3 Chargers games this year in person, I would say that only about 5% of his passes are bad. The rest have been great. With exception of the first half in the Opening Week, he has been lights out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With exception of the first half in the Opening Week, he has been lights out. Take Hank Bauer's kawk out of your mouth for 2 minutes. You are either blind, or you have never seen a real QB play in person. Even previous Charger QB's like Stan Humphries had more speed and zip on their throws than Rivers. He , along with the Charger team are notorious choke artists. How quickly people forget the disaster they put on last year in the playoffs. The Jets sorry defense made him look good. Point blank.
