Philip Rivers signs with Colts

[Da-Rock]

44 years old and just around 4 years since he took a hit.

You can practice plays and throws but at 44 and not taking a hit in that long means I will watch to see how he reacts to getting hit.

Probably "ow!"

Hope he has a Baker Mayfield moment.

The stage is set for Rivers. If he balls out it will be an epic comeback story, especially the 9er monday night game. Hopefully he shuts down both our rivals.

Must seeTV......kinda like watching a car crash.

 

[Tumak61]

He's got at least 10 kids so maybe this is a break for him and getting hit by NFL LB's not a big deal.

 

[Da-Rock]

It’s a good story, but the Seahawks are too good to let that happen.

Colts / Seahawks

Bet on Rivers trash talking whoever hits him. Maybe, possibly what he missed most about the game - being able to run his mouth. By the end of the game, Rivers might be on a stretcher or in street clothes, but pretty sure he will be yapping at hawk defenders.

I expect it's gonna get fuckin ugly. That coach may lose his job due to thinking this is a good idea.

I'd have that gm turning on a spit over a fire with an apple in his mouth at this point. Your team wins or we're gonna filet you with a dull letter opener MFer.

Sports book prop bet, I will put Rivers for 3+ TDs.

It's not like they had much choice.

Hoping it goes better for the "old guy" than it did in the Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul fight. Tyson was 58, and Rivers is "only" 44....

Some ugly predictions out there that Rivers will get crushed. Definitely gonna be rooting for the old-man-underdog in this game!

Hope you're right. I'd love to see Seattle knocked down a peg.

If you completely ignore the earlier decision to not have a better backup, sure.

 

[sloramfan]

all the doom and gloomers that are predicting a lousy performance from rivers,
can't wait to go to the "i told you so" take...

they are the same mofos that will be screaming at the TV if rivers somehow makes a game of it and wins....

i for one will join EVERY RAM FAN ON THIS BOARD rooting my ass off, and hoping for the miraculous to be witnessed ...

go philip rivers

go rams

Maybe but Rivers is so old, his trash-talking is probably dated. Stuff like:
"Your mother wears army boots"
"Why don't you make like a tree and leave"
"You're Cruisin-for-a-Bruisin"
"Next time, I'll give you a Knuckle-sandwich"

 

[Ramhusker]

Good luck Rivers!
