Manning > Rivers

[gorky]

Given the history of this forum.... I just had too.

Don't blame you ;-)

Historically speaking - as in past play, you're right.

As for the future, Rivers is moving up while Manning is moving down with time. Both are top 5 QBs.

Our QB has one of these..........

Top five?

Drew Brees
Tom Brady
Aaron Rodgers
Peyton Manning
Eli Manning
Ben Roethlisberger

Which two of those guys is Rivers better than? Hint: none.

Rivers is more Stafford/Schaub/Ryan/Romo/Flacco tier. He may be the best of that bunch, but that still makes him seventh overall at best (and given last season I'd put Stafford ahead of Rivers too).

I am enjoying the lack of loud chargers fans tebow hating ... but now it will be how mannings certain to get injured and he's over the hill blah blah ... today the broncos just put the afc west to rest ... raiders chargers and chiefs get ready to play for a wild card birth

Hey, now we have three jewels for the neutlers to gaze at!

Kind of disturbing but awesome at the same time.

Too bad it's not with us.

1.Manning
2.Rivers
3.Palmer
4.Cassel

I think this is how most people would rank the quarterbacks in the division.

Rivers can play at an elite level, like a top 5 quarterback in the league. His 2008-2010 seasons were really strong. The 2011 Rivers was not so good.

And now the Broncos might finally have a dangerous passing game to make things fair. The games will be more exciting this year.

What the Broncos don't have: a running back like Charles, McFadden or Mathews.

[Bernie24]

Matthews isn't nearly as good as McFadden and Charles.

Both are top 5 QBs.

Just...........


no

Had you guys got Tom Brady or Big Ben sure maybe most Chargers fans would be scared. Mannings record against Rivers & the Chargers is something like 1-4, 0-2 in the post season. I think he has also thrown more pics against us then any other non division opponent.

Its an upgrade at QB thats for sure but its only a short time fix (i'm predicting 3 years max) & then you'll be looking for another QB.

Yeah, you're not even the least bit worried are ya?

Sure a little bit. I was worried everytime we played the Colts & Manning and quite honestly was surprised at how much success we had against him. I bet if you asked most Charger fans they have been much more concerned when we have had to play the Pats or Steelers in recent years.

[baphamet]

a healthy peyton on the colts is better than rivers sure.

yet to be seen if he will be better as a bronco, if he is healthy, if he has success with the broncos.

congrats broncos fans, you finally have a QB that you can argue that's better than rivers.

even though you homers argued cutler and tebow were better and that was funny while it lasted.
