Im on board with Rivers.  I would take him nine times out of ten over Brees and he is not unlike Stafford in that his circumstance dictated his legacy more than his talent did.

 Rivers was solid, but pretty careless with turnovers.  He was like a poor man's Brett Favre.  Wilson is a lock for HoF, Rivers I don't think so...

They won games with Taysom Hill at QB.  Jameis has the talent.  Unfortunately for us, I think Payton is going to have his guy for years to come.

Oh, he definitely does. His problem is the turnovers. If Payton can cure him of turnoveritis he's gonna keep that train rolling down there in the raw sewage filled streets of N.O.

Dont get me wrong.  The closest Rivers is going to get to a yellow jacket is hugging one of his buddies that gets one.

 

Im saying that had he had a better set of circumstances he could have performed at that level.

Sean Peyton is one hell of a coach and probably would have made Rivers even better.  I hate Peyton, but he is legit (except in the playoffs).

Yeah Nagy let the Bears defense atrophy into mediocrity, and their offense is just as lackluster as ever.  He's been a complete failure.

The defense might be better if their offense wasn't so atrocious. You can see the promise of the defense at times, but they just get hung out to dry all game and break.

Given that things have played out now, can we really say that Eli was so wrong to refuse being drafted by the Chargers?  Not that Eli was a great QB by any means, but think about Rivers on those Giants teams.

Don't make me list the great players Rivers played with in San Diego.

The Bears are gonna have to go to Fields sooner rather than later.

Dalton threw the ball 38 times tonight and completed 70% of them. Big night, right? Wait... only 206 yards. 0 TDs. Dude averaged 5.4ypa. I honestly can't recall a ball traveling more than 19 yards past the LOS. Teddy Bridgewater would be embarrassed by that.

Poor man's Teddy B

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By Icege · Posted

      "If only Bryce were <height>", he'd <insert stupid thing here>" was the bit and in direct response to multiple posters ridiculously blaming Bryce (and only Bryce) for the punt returns vs. New England. :3 I understand that folks desire balance, hence the "Bryce stans vs. Bryce haters" narrative but it's abundantly clear that the only people going into threads just to talk about Bryce are the haters. Meanwhile, daring to disagree that Bryce was completely at fault for something that happened on special teams gets the "stan" label. Shoot, I'm sure folks lump me in as a Bryce stan (Brycen stan? Absolutely. Bryce stan? Nah) just because I have the audacity to look at what the rest of the team is and isn't doing. 😛

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ Walker is the only QB in the Tepper era the Panthers managed to find wins with.  Only QB w/ a winning record.    PJ had success in pro ball before the Panthers.  He he had NFL tools.    He just is consistent and unreliable.  PJ Walker is what you call a bad/poor man's gunslinger.  He can provide highs and lows both virtually guaranteed.  He is NFL depth.  Bryce Young hasn't proven to improve a teams chances of winning better than the PJ Walker tier of QBing. PJ Walker can do things Bryce Young can't......and that a problem

      There isn’t but the thing is the team/system/staff around the QB ultimately dictates how successful that QB can be. You have Baker getting released midseason here vs playing like a MVP on another team. Darnold on the Jets/Panthers vs Vikings/Seahawks. Geno Smith on the Jets vs the Seahawks vs the Raiders. Mac Jones is looking as good as Purdy on the 49ers. You have to build a roster, culture, and system for these guys.  Obviously the QB has to be the leader and help elevate the team, but we are seeing what moving a “bad” QB to a stable franchise looks like. Daniel Jones might be doing the same but it’s too early to tell.
