That Was Ugly. Seriously, Where Do We Go From Here?

Not only was Rivers's second pick a nice play by Honey Badger, but Rivers KNEW he was throwing a long ball into tight coverage--plenty of time for a good defensive back to at least break up the play, and in this case, Badger jumped the route and got the pick...still think Rivers forced it...

He may not have seen it and that wasn't the worst throw I've ever seen. The pass to Keenan in the end zone that was almost intercepted was his worst throw of the night, but the last one was obviously the clincher.

Let him finish the season. Then re-evaluate.

He also had a fumble (not lost) and a dropped INT...that would have made 6 TOs on him tonight. Would that have been an NFL record?

You don't bench PR.

There were mistakes all over the place tonight.

But PR is mentally out of his game this year. Bye week. Regroup. Recommit to the run game they abandoned in the red zone and the second half tonight. Do like Minnesota,.keep your QB from high risk situations as much as possible, let your improving defense win a game for you. Hopefully the QB and the offense find their stride.win some games.

next year, different story.

I think the record for INTs is 8.

Almost INTs and fumbles don't count.

We picked off Peyton Manning 6 times. Don't remember that? Cro had 3 himself

In 2008 PFF ranked Steelers o line 5th worst at pass blocking. Ben and the Steelers won the Superbowl.

In 2011 PFF ranked Giants o line the worst in all of football. Eli and the Giants won the Superbowl.

Im tired of these excuses for Rivers.
He just doesn't make enough winning plays and his best days are behind him. He is a 9-7 QB with an occasional 10+ win season. You are what your record says you are.

Joe Burrow. Go get him.

We won't be faintly close to be in the Burrow running.

What kills me is we are only 1 play away that was in each game from being 11-0 (or 2-9) and the media slobbering all over our average team that should be around .500 ...
Indy could of lost and won
Detroit 1 play away from winning pick from EK TD or JJ TD or TY FG
Miami we dominated
Houston I am not remembering that game too well but I believe there was a huge play in that game (did great the first half and lost, like tonight)
Denver ditto
Pitt the lateral to MG
Tenn pick your play EK bad reversal, MG reversal, MG fumble
Chicago could of lost due to missed FG but we just missed a makeable FG before that as well
GB we dominated a 7-1 team
Oak HH falls down pick 6
KC lob to smallest player, great first half, etc.

We def should have won the Detroit and Tennessee game and be 6-5 right now.

But with this line would we have beat Baltimore or NE anyways?

Okung healthy and Derwin I do feel we'd be like 9-2 right now.

[NoMoreChillies]

Keep Rivers as starter, a few more 3 INT games and we get top 5 draft pick.

You have to be an idiot not to want to see Tyrod at this point .

That isn't what really bothers me about Taylor - it's the lack of big plays. He may not turn the ball over much and can scramble, but takes way too many sacks and just doesn't put up any points. I don't think he can read defenses well and panics and starts to scramble.
