Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

Today is the perfect example of Philip Rivers and what he is as a QB, a stats accumulator, not a winner. The game was 31-12 and Rivers had a mediocre stat line with 147 yards passing. The garbage time starts, the game ends 38-28 with the Chefs never in danger, but Rivers ends up with 424 yards and 3 TDs. The media and Chargers fans will talk about how great he is, but he only did so when the game was no longer in doubt.
you do realize that not all those stats came in garbage time, right?
it literally happens to every QB, you act like hes the only one to benefit from garbage time stats. in fact, a big bulk of fantasy points come in garbage time and that is a fact.
but tell me, the lats time he broncos played the charges,how many of those points came in garbage time?
do me a favor and click that link. now explain to me why most of his stats came in the 2nd and 3rd quarters, if indeed what you say is true?
The game was 31-12 and over. Rivers had 147 yards, 1 TD and 1 int at that point. The game was effectively over. San Angeles never got close, but Rivers accumulated his stats.
that's drew brees' splits, one of the best ever. more garbage time stats that rivers? or does that not fit your narrative?
There's no doubt about it, Brees and the Saints also love to pad his stats, no argument there. But Brees has won, that's what make's him one of the best ever. Rivers has taken loaded rosters and turned in 8-8 seasons, with lots of great stats.

rivers is going to retire top 10 in NFL wins lol
brees' playoff record isn't that great either, but he has a ring.
again, every single QB and skill position player benefits from garbage time stats, it's just a fact.
it was the last time our teams met so you do have a point!
Keep hanging on to that last game last year!!!! It has a lot of merit to what this year holds, right?? Guess the trophy smack is valid to use then since we're talking about past years..... We celebrated 8 Super Bowls and 3 trophies!!!! What do you have??? LOL
I mean with the powerful well rounded deep and talented team behind him nobody can stop the dolts
yes, just like last year the chargers came out the first game flat as can be. two TD's given up on ST's, 6 dropped passes with 3 of them that would have been TD's. and just like last year the chargers will get their stuff together and dominate.
the passes that were dropped were by receivers i know can play, more importantly mike williamns didn't have any of them and didn't look like the guy with no explosiveness you said he was.
