Rivers might not even get in
Lots of QBs are putting up his stats now
And he’s not a top5 QB for his generation
Brady, Brees, Rodgers, Big Ben, Eli
All clearly ahead of Rivers, Matt Ryan & Stafford
who are the next tier imo - jdfitz77
Rivers has better stats than Big Ben and Eli
Rivers has a better winning percentage than Eli
Rivers has more TDs and way less INTs than Eli has more TDs and less INT's than Big Ben
Rivers has a better completion percentage than both
Rivers has a better career rating than both as well
Rivers downfall is he has played for the Chargers his entire career and they suck in the playoffs (special teams, fluky plays, bad D) |

The right side of the defense is crowded and we have so many that one of our acquisitions is playing the left side
Wild exaggeration, indeed - jcragcrumple
No, it’s the ridiculousness of posts where u say,
“The GM is beyond questioning”
or
“Botts is getting an A+”
No one is saying that, NO ONE
And I’ve probably been more critical of Botts here than most (ROR trade, for example)
But please hit us with another nonsensical “buying a parka” reference
That way we can all understand where you’re coming from
The end.
Just got to Toronto. Gonna hit up the HOF
Things are looking up dude
Try to enjoy it, feels good!

His chargers teams have been GOOD though
He hasn’t been stuck on a crappy team like Stafford
His lack of playoff success is definitely a strike against him |

Huh? How?
I guess “IT” really isn’t dead & they'll have a new group of kids he terrorizes
Gonna be hard to put a unique twist on the story & have it be a good movie though |

Rivers has been on a Chargers team that has won 11 or more games 3 times
He has been on some good teams that had bad coaching, or like I said bad special teams play has killed them in the playoffs
Had Eli gone to San Diego and Rivers to the Giants the Giants would have 4 Super Bowls IMO
The defense they had was so good |

Those 3 years where LT was the best back in football the chargers lost weird games in the playoffs
In 2006 against the Patriots missed field goal by Kaeding costs the game
In 2007 they lost in the AFC title game to the undefeated Patriots that was stacked
In 2008 they didn't make the playoffs cause their D was average and their special teams lost them 2 games at least in the regular season

so he makes the team and looks slightly better than last year.. he was supposedly really good in roch too.. What if he just can't be good enough against the high end talent but looks really good against lesser talent? |

drew had his moments.. how many hattricks or multi goal games did he have that one season followed by weeks of disappearance |

If he can implement some physicality in his game with that extra 15 lbs, even if he isn't scoring he can leapfrog all of the other mediocre bums in camp. |

Go Bills. - Fattony1187
At 2-0, the Bills are in first place for the prestigious Fresh Water Bowl, a trophy I just made up that is awarded each year to the best team on the Great Lakes. Green Bay doesn't count - I don't give a frank if they once played half their games in Milwaukee.
Fresh Water Bowl Standings:
Bills: 2-0
Packers: 2-0
Lions: 1-0-1
Bears: 1-1
Browns: 1-1
This is the year!
Edit: apparently Green Bay is on the Great Lakes. Damn.
Tied for first place!!!
Buffalo's got the spirit... |

Enjoy the HHOF. I was there 2 years ago. Good stuff
Until the team is good, it's fair to question the GM in a fair and reasonable way. He's done some good, some bad and some unknown. As you're fond of saying:
If u dont like it,
You can skip over my posts, sir

I don't think I have any reason to believe that Botts deserves any additional praise. He's changed over a bulk of the roster multiple times since he's been here, and there hasn't been a significant increase in production.
I do like the moves he's made this year, but I have no idea how they will work out. I'm ready for the team to prove it, but I feel this way every year.
I'm keeping my optimism high, and expectations low.

As silly as it sounds, tonight's game will go a long way toward determining my expectations for the year. I'm super excited to see how His Fatness looks |

I'm more interested in CM than I am anyone else during the preseason.
I'm hoping he took the summer more seriously than his online presence dictated, or whatever it was believed he did all summer.
He's slated to play with Sam tonight? |

Every big city has issues. California is not doing much to take care of the significant issues that are mounting among the homeless population that is growing exponentially. There is the blame on the housing market, but it's far deeper than that. The cost of living, the mental health issues, and the drug addiction epidemic are the leading causes for a majority of the issues with the homeless and expansive growth in the homeless communities in the southern part of the state. |

Ek has a big western conference team making a push for Point, so I'm guessing he will be signed.
Laine and Rantenen are in Europe skating with Bern, so they may be digging in for the long haul. |
