Twitter: Skip regarding Dak. He's right you know

[WillieBeamen]

You made no point. You merely expressed your feelings.

I did. You missed it.

Probably blatantly because you are a Dak fan boy

 

[zerofill]

Rivers isnt a hall if famer

uhhh... Pretty sure he is getting there at some point.

*yawns*

Is Dak a lock for the Hall of Fame?

Is Dak top 6 of all time in passing yards?

Is Dak top 6 of all time in Passing Tds?

Has Dak ever reached a Championship game?

Hall of Fame QBs get a pass for poor performances, not average QBs that cant win if his #1 receiver or Ot doesn't finish the game...

You think Rivers is a lock for HOF?

Iffy. Especially with the league tilting the game to the pass. Five years after he retires, his Career passing yards won't look so great, and it will be clear his passing yards ranking won't have staying power. Without that, what is he?

Years All Pro 0
SB wins 0

Better chance than Tony, but that ain't saying much.

 

[buybuydandavis]

We all know the double standard applies to certain people.

Just look at all the flak Russell Wilson gets for throwing the pick in the endzone to lose the Super Bowl........on 2nd down no less!

I live in Seattle. Carroll gets the flak for the call, not Wilson for the throw.

 

[buybuydandavis]

As I recall, the OC got most of the flak for calling a play to throw into The heart of the defense instead of giving it to the battering ram, Marshawn Lynch.

Can confirm from Seattle. People blame the play call. Wilson is rarely even mentioned when people rant about the play.

I do like dak. His improved performance this year has been great to watch. Not just from a physical standpoint, but his ability to read defenses. The more he says kill, kill, the better. There's a big dance in our future.

Yep

He has the numbers and the longevity. Only reason he doesnt have the accolades is because he played in an era along with 3 of the top 5 QBs of all-time. Top 5 all time in Yards and Tds is no small feat...

They don't know. They don't. They don't know.

Which is crazy, it's 2nd down. The Qb has to make the right decision there.

 

[Number1]

Yup, and the usual suspects would be having a field day with how that performance was. Rivers looked worse than Nathan Peterman. Also, Carr didn't look all that spectacular.

it was just plain ugly

Dak's 3 INT outting vs GB was clunky ... but he very rarely goes brain dead, like the game opening INT vs NYG

one off his best attributes is rarely making dumb plays

he'll out throw a duck now and then, other than that I don't see the faults some seem to imagine

the kid has the most high profile job in sports that attracts wild comments, especially from player haters

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

I'm more certain what the answer isn't. It isn't rivers. Probably Allen.

You are certain? You do realize that Rivers still leads the NFL in passing yard, even after this last game, yes?

He was a top 10 QB last year, he's won more games in the NFL then he's lost. I mean, I am not certain that Rivers still isn't in the plans but I'm certain that at this point, Allen isn't the best QB on that Roster. I don't even think it's close. If they decide to go another direction, it's not because any of the current QBs are better. It's financial or the belief that it's time to get younger, which I would understand, but not better.

This cannot be denied. Doesn't mean dak won't join him some day.

No knock on rivers. He's been great since day one. Just don't see him going somewhere else unless it's for a boatload of money. In which case the financial argument doesn't hold water. Jmo

He might not cern. I mean, you could be 100% right on that. I'm just thinking that Carolina is the spot that, IMO, might be the best fit for him, especially if he wants to continue to play and the Chargers decide to go with youth.

He could easily just hang up em or the Chargers could just decide to stick with Rivers. Who knows?

The right decision was not to call an inherently high risk play where a QB can't see all the players involved.

He deserves to have a happy ending. I think he's hof material.

 

[FTWayne]

It's a show for ratings.

 

[Hadenough]

Please prove both me and Skip wrong.

I dont think criticize Rivers. He gutted the Cowboys the last time they played. He also beat GB something Dak failed to do. When you beat good teams your entitled to a stinker once in a while. And for those of you who like to throw Daks stats out there well Rivers is leading the league in passing yds.
