I'm amazed...or actually completely not surprised on the league turns a blind eye to the patriots. That celebration is whatever, but I remember reading they trashed the Texas Stadium locker room with popcorn. Could you imagine if some other team had done that in NE? Good lord, Chris Berman would still be talking about it.

If we did it he'd want 60 Minutes to do a complete investigation.

Yeah I saw videos of them doing that on NFL Network and as they entered the locker room they were celebrating by throwing popcorn all over the place. I'll have to side with rivers on this one.

I saw that game. It was a horrible offensive, defensive, and special teams performance by the Broncos. They cut their punter over an $8 taxi fare he refused to pay and was arrested for "disturbing the peace." The new guy sucked and single handedly gave the Chargers 14 points easy.

I'm sure there was trash talking going around both ways...

As an eight-time Pro Bowl selection, Denver Broncos cornerback Champ Bailey has lined up and locked down plenty of guys around the league.

But Bailey says there was no defense for Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers' sideline taunting of Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler in the fourth quarter of Monday night's 23-3 Broncos loss in San Diego.

The video has made the rounds of the highlight shows near and far, but after an incomplete pass on fourth down in the fourth quarter, Rivers -- as well as linebackers Shaun Phillips and Matt Wilhelm -- clearly can be seen jawing at Cutler from the San Diego sideline.

But it was the Chargers quarterback who drew the Broncos' ire.

"And I don't really care for the guy, first of all," Bailey said of Rivers on Wednesday. "He's not a respectable guy right now because you talk too much trash and do this and that, but you're really not a great player in this league right now.

"You're surrounded by great players, but you're not a great player. I think he needs to understand where he stands in this league -- where he stands on his team first and foremost."

The incident was a topic of discussion among Broncos players as they gathered after the holiday to begin their workweek leading to Sunday's season finale against the Minnesota Vikings.

Teammates said Cutler certainly was not happy with what was perceived as a breach of etiquette, but publicly he was measured in his response.

"We've talked about it a little bit," Cutler said. "I'm not going to get into it. It's an unfortunate situation. They talk a lot of stuff, it got heated between the two teams. Personally, I don't think the teams like each other, which is fine. It's just going to add to it later next year and the year after that. It should be exciting."

Asked if he had ever done that to another quarterback, Cutler shook his head and said "No."

Rivers said he used no profanity and was only reacting to his defense's play.

"We get a fourth-down stop, Wilhelm and Shaun Phillips, those guys been jawing the whole game with them," Rivers told The San Diego Union-Tribune. "We get a good stop. They are jawing. I'm not anywhere involved. I come out to congratulate them on the stop. I come out to congratulate them, and while I'm out there, yeah, there is some eye contact, but I'm saying 'atta baby' to Matt Wilhelm and Shaun Phillips. Sure, there is eye contact. Maybe there is a smirk. But I am speaking to my guys. That's all that was said.

"I don't think I have to defend myself. I used no profanity, I said nothing personal to anybody on that field. I was out there playing football. We're not in a tennis match. I understand some of the frustration is they've lost four in a row to this team. People don't like losing four in a row."

Rivers also said he was surprised by Bailey's reaction, saying: "He's one guy I've always said we respect him. He's one of the top corners in the league. Out there in the game, I say very little to Champ other than if we do complete one on him -- and you don't go after the guy -- he'll look at me, I'll grin at him like, 'Hey, we got you.' It's always been a very respectful communication between me and him. That surprises me."

Broncos tight end Tony Scheffler said the incident would come up again when the Broncos face the Chargers next season and veteran cornerback Dre Bly added Rivers had not yet "earned the right to do that."

"They've got a lot of classy guys on that team," Bailey said. "He kind of represents the classless guy on that team. He's definitely lost my respect."

Funny this was labeled as a Rivers video when the whole thing was about more of the Pats fake modesty and "class" after they won that game.

If anyone buys their crapola about how everyone disrespects them, and how they're justified in taunting back because of it, I have some nice beachfront property in Oklahoma to sell you.

Please, the Chargers had some punk that was guaranteeing victory against the Patriots. The video I posted shows that the Chargers are no better than the Patriots, and that Phillip Rivers is one of the biggest ******** in the NFL.

If this is what he's like now, I'd hate to see how inflated Rivers' ego would be if he had actually accomplished something in the NFL of note. This is like Gus Frerrote talking smack.

Exactly. Champ Bailey hit it on the nose.
