    Favorite moment was when he took down the cheifs in arrowhead on that Thursday Night Football game in 2018

    He always beat the Raiders. Am I the only one that thinks the video quality of this channel is underrated?

    He was always just a fun player to watch. He never cursed. Never. His mic’d up moments are hilarious. Dudes got like 12 kids too.

    Philip Rivers was fun to watch over the years. He had a lot of kids with his wife. His dad was a football coach. It’s an interesting fact.

    Never a Chargers fan but I loved Phil. The Chargers could just never put it all together. Look at the infamous 2010 Chargers season. #1 offense, #1 defense and they were denied the playoffs because of a handful of boneheaded Special Teams plays. They had so many years like that.

      I can tell you’re not a charger fan because 06 was more infamous that 10 and 09 was better than 2010

    Still blows my mind that the chargers fired Marty after finishing 14-2

    Watching him and learning about chargers history. He reminds me of 21th century Dan Floute. He can get you to the playoffs but he was not the guy to take you to the super bowl. Honestly wished he won a Super bowl but facing Prime Tom Brady and 2000s Patriots teams, is hard to beat.

      2018 patriots team too. And 2013 broncos team. Both played in the super bowl. Reminds me of Matt Ryan.

    Imagine if the 49ers signed him after all the quarterback injuries maybe he would have had a shot at the Super Bowl.

      THe 49ers did explore signing RIvers out of retirement, because they only had an inexperienced rookie as their playoff QB. But that rookie QB was Brock Purdy, who knew the system and the plays and showed he was up to it. THAT is football: it bounces funny.

    Nice well made video! He was still very good even though he never played in a super bowl. Even Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees only played in one super bowl each. Phillip kept running into Tom Brady, Peyton Manning in 2013, and Big Ben in the playoffs too.

    If he was a Raider there definitely would have been another ring...

    I always wondered what Rivers career would have looked like- if he had played for a better all around team - and/ or better coaching staff. For example- Rivers the QB at New England .....how many rings would he have ?

    • @thehalftimeshow
      @thehalftimeshow  18 днів тому +2

      We may view him to be ranked higher of all time greats. That’s for sure.

  • @MrJohndoe17
    @MrJohndoe17 8 днів тому

    I hope you could add a career stat slide & avgs. Rivers was statistically better than Eli Manning (easily) and Roethlisburger, but he played in the era of Brady, Peyton, and Drew Brees, one of whom was the ONE better than RIvers each season. Add i his character and competitive nature, and he is famous for that, too. And it's not called the Football Hall of Super Bowl Winners.

    I hate to say this but he was a talented quarterback who never played well when it really mattered in the playoffs

    • @MrJohndoe17
      @MrJohndoe17 8 днів тому

      Marc, Rivers didn't miss those playoff field goals (Nate Kaeding), and those 4th quarter fumbles (Marlon McCree). Rivers didn't give LT a bad knee in the playoffs, and he played on his ruptured ACL in the same game. And Rivers didn't fire HC Marty Shottenheimer after a 14-2 seaso (Spanos, AJ Smith) . PS - "when it really mattered in the playoffs" ? Every game in the playoffs is elimination game, so they all matter.

    Could Philip hoop tho?

      He was a fiery competitor at everything: hoops, golf, baseball, even ping pong and cards in the locker room. And he was of course a stone cold killer at corn hole.
