Phillip Rivers?

Rumor has it that he would consider the Saints if they came knocking.  No mention of the Panthers. 

Why would he risk his health behind this Oline....I presume he would like to still be intact when he has grandchildren.

This plus he has not chance at playoffs with our team, like he is going to go to a team that thinks that have a chance if they lose their quarterback which would be saints.

Well, with Rivers we have a chance AT the playoffs with that extra berth. Now the chances of a deep playoff run with this OL?? Not very likely.

One of my favorite players of all time....would have loved to see him in a Panthers uniform.

 

 

Past tense is meant to be there.

Rivers was still playing at a high level for Indy but I don't think he has Brady or Brees longevity. If he doesn't, playing behind this line would send him down the road quickly.

He can be efficient, no doubt about it...but not with this O Line.

I watched him very closely last year, and while Rivers never had a gun, he could barely get a 10 yard out to his guy without a perfect pocket.

He could play well for the Saints, I think he would end up tarring his rep here though.

Hate he never got a shot at a ring after that 06 debacle with LT going out and him having to play on a torn ACL in a playoff game...was always going to be hard in that conference with the Steelers and Ravens always being who they are, and Brady and Manning I perfecting their craft.

    • Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
