P-Riv Update: Week 6

Greetings fellow P-Riv followers,

Another beauty by our man, Philip Rivers. Move over MartyBall, you've been replaced by PhilipBall. It doesn't have the same ring to it, but it is much more appropriate when describing the best offense in the league led by the best, yeah you read it, best QB in the league. On four of the Charger's scoring drives, the Chargers made three touchdowns and a field goal. Rivers was perfect on all four, at one time completing 13 straight passes. He finished 29 of 39 for 334 yards, 2 Touchdowns and 0 interceptions. He also added another win. Look, if Rivers, basically a rookie in third-year clothing, really is this good – and he's given us little reason to think otherwise – Dan Marino better watch out. You keeping waiting for a mistake out of Rivers, but he will just not make one.

Next week my beloved Chargers have Kansas City and if you look at the rest of their schedule, I don't think they will ever be an underdog in Vegas. They have Cincy and Seattle on the road in 2 tough match-ups. They also have a home and away with the Broncos. Absolute worst case, I see them at 11-5. The season is starting to take shape and what a beautiful shape it is taking.

I'll leave you with the same challenge as last week. If you get a chance, this week, yell, "GO CHARGERS!!!", in a public venue.

GO CHARGERS!!!
