Chargers release Philip Rivers

[Bateshorn 9908]

Bunch of guys on this thread that didn't see him play this season.  Rivers is done.  Doesn't mean some dipshit owner won't sign him, but he's finished as an effective QB.

But did he ever win anything that matters?

no, but neither did dan marino and he's one of the all time great passing QB's.  Rivers is a lock HOF guy.

The era these guys played in and going forward is going to have to be viewed differently by the hall of fame voters. It’s an era where passing and rules greatly help the numbers. Numbers can’t be everything with passers from 2000 to now and going forward IMO

I saw he and Turbisky play. He’s a clear upgrade for Chicago in the short term.

To be honest, I thought he retired years ago

He’s going to retire in the top 5 in passing yards and likely in passing TDs too. He’ll be in.

So did Roman Gabriel.

He's not a sure fire HOFer, but I wouldn't be shocked if he gets in.  I mean Eli will, and he isn't close to the QB Rivers was(don't give me shit about 2 SB's, I don't care. He was a passenger on those runs outside of a play here or there)

Those two SB and the resulting MVP trophies are why Eli will go in. Most likely his first ballot since he’s a Manning.

Rivers was every bit as good a QB as Archie.

You're most likely right, and I still don't think he's a HOFer.

I don’t think he is either, unless they have a short bus wing. Hopefully his bust will be top notch Manning face.

How's he gonna feed all 162 kids he has? I guess he can ask Antonio Cromartie and Shawn Kemp for advice

If his arm had only stayed as accurate as his sperm.

Rivers might be an upgrade over the awful Mitchell Trubisky

Might?  LOL
