I'm not buying into the Phillip Rivers hype

[Beachdude83]

Sure I am biased. I laughed when LT cried about the patriots being "classless", I wished hell on the chargers after they treated Brees the way that they did. And I was STEAMING when ESPN ranked Rivers as a better QB than Brady the other week.

I hope champ & co. spank this douchebag's twat tonight. No he's no Eli Cutler, but hes not an elite QB in this league, hes simply an average QB among a league with a slew of mediocre QBs this year.

anybody that says rivers is average is a moron. enough said

[givemeone]

Does anyone know when Vincent Jackson will return?

hes worse than vick, brady, manning, brees, sanchez, freeman, bills QB, k collins, favre, big ben, flacco, cassel, mcnaab, RODGERS, bradford, hasselbeck, and falcons QB. IMO. thats my top 16

Next week @ Colts

[woody78]

Just an idiotic statement about the list of QB's better than Rivers. Like K Collins was EVER better than Rivers, let alone right now. Just making yourself look more dumb with every post I see.

[Beachdude83]

k collins won a lot of games with a much worse team

[Sildenafil]

You don't even know the names of some of the "QB's" that are better than him. Right now, the way he is playing, only Brady and Peyton are better than him IMO.

Favre, seriously?? Bradford has played 10 games in this league... I could go on and on... Quite possibly the most retarded post on this site, maybe ever, and that takes a lot of doing

Smoke another bowl, bro! You make a good case when you don't even know the name of some QBs in your top list.

[Brian891]

Im a diehard bills fan, and im STILL not crazy enough to say Ryan Fitzpatrick, which is bills qb's name by the way, at least do your research, is anywhere near the caliber of philip rivers. Peyton manning had his troubles is the playoffs too and is still one of the best ever. These sound like rantings of someone who has been burned by betting on chargers a few times.

[Beachdude83]

i couldn't remember some of the names. but im up x50 of my original bankroll for the season betting only on the NFL. so i think i know football somewhat

Everyone in this forum is up at least that much if not x50 that much.

[GatorTD]

Bills QB? Jim Kelly from tecmo super bowl?

just cause they say they are doesnt mean its true. if so, vegas would be poor right now

Exactly. Talk is cheap.

Stats don't lie.

Here's a stat. Rivers is #1 in NFL history in QB passer rating.

Heres another stat. when rivers gets into the big games, *CHOKE*

[STAY STRONG]

chargers is the play

[greeny]

chargers do sound like a solid pick tonite, BOL to all

[thebestthereis]

rivers is better than some teams guys and people that play football or soccer. no football and pass balls to other people that are there.

[Beachdude83]

chargers is the play

I got Broncos at +10. Its the NFL. I don't think they will win, but 10 points is huge in the nfl. remember cowboys at +14? CMON MAN

[Flight]

This prop is available for Philip Rivers:

Rivers throws interception Yes -135

He is 6-3 on the year on the yes (-200)
He has thrown 8 interceptions in 9 games (average .89 per game)

He is a great QB, but I am going with YES on this prop.

[marcoloco]

not a rivers fan, dont like his style or his attitude. but the guy is getting it down. numbers dont lie. plus he is working with avg receiving core especially with gates out, and little to no running game.

[slacker00]

Heres another stat. when rivers gets into the big games, *CHOKE*

You've listed a bunch of guys with zero playoff wins as better than Rivers. Big games matter to you?

Rivers is 35-6 in regular season games November and later. He's good with the season on the line.

The guy played an AFCCG on the road in freezing weather with one knee and played great. The Chargers didn't lose to the Pats in 06' or 07' because of Rivers play.

You sir are smoking crack. Name the receivers Rivers threw to in his last game?

Rivers is 35-6 in regular season games November and later. He's good with the season on the line.

The guy threw 11 TD's and 1 Int in December of 2008 in the last 4 games of the season. 4 games they had to win and ultimately won the division at 8-8.

Cutler had something like 5 TD's and 11 Int's over the same 4 week period and they lost all 4 games and the division.

The guy who started this thread is clueless.

[kcDdegenerate]

thanks for telling me I have been wrong for thinking Rivers is a solid QB

[PhilliesPhan]

I know Eli has a ring but as an Eagles fan i am very happy Rivers is not the QB for the gmen b.c he is a gamer and IMO one of the most underrated players in the league.

I know, man. I don't know why I get involved in some of these threads.

lol, then don't buy into it. does he care? does anybody care? yeah actually the books apparently care that they cashed on your +10

[Scorpion]

Rivers always loses in the playoffs

He is very average in the playoffs, always throws that dumb INT, I love to bet against Norv and Rivers in the playoffs $$$$

[305GURU]

Rivers is beyond average....yea hes a twat half the time but better than average
