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

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      By frankw · Posted

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
