P-Riv Update: Week 8

P-Riv is my dogg.

My Chargers rebounded from a tough loss last week to whoop the quality St. Louis Rams 38-24. Big thanks to LT for helping ease our boy, P-Riv, into his first starting season. LT finished the game yesterday with 183 yards and 3TDs! While Rivers spent most of the day watching Tomlinson do his thing, he also delivered when called upon. He opened the game today by completing his first four passes for 70 yards and finished 15-of-23 for 206 yards and a touchdown (108 passer rating). Philip was 10-of-14 for 121 yards and a 97.6 passer rating in the first half. Of the four incomplete passes, one was an intentional throw-away. He was an incredible 6-of-9 for 101 yards and a touchdown today on third down plays, a rating of 141.

Moments after the Rams made it a two-possession game midway through the fourth quarter, his picture-perfect 25-yard floater to LT made it a 38-17 contest. Philip continues to be a joy to watch. We'll have to get ready for an improving Cleveland Browns team. It should, however, be an easy win.

If you end up dressing up this Halloween, be a Charger.

GO CHARGERS!!!
