Most elite QBs are world beaters against crappy defenses. Luck did shred Seattle, they are a "good" defense, no? Actually, with the rules the way they are, is there such a thing as a good defense?

220 yards, a third of which came on a defensive miscommunication, is "shredding" a defense?

I suppose that speaks volumes about the perception of the Hawk defense if such superlatives are used to describe a fairly pedestrian outing.

How did I know this would set your panties on fire? Regardless, that game last season proved to me the Hawks are an average team away from CL

btw, 2 of those "3 solid wins" were against the Bills and the sparkle kitties. just puttin' that out there...
San Diego / Rivers traveled across country to face a 2-0 Bills team (who beat Chicago on the road) and had a lot of momentum going into the game against S.D.

They had the best road record in the league last year.

But you're right. That one game against that one guy that you watch gave you everything you need to know.

If by "best" you mean tied with four other teams, then you are right.

Because you were trolling for a response?

Right. Just like I knew that Luck was an average team after that Cardinals game last year.

But yeah, to answer the OP, next to Peyton Manning, Philip Rivers is indeed the best QB in the league.

Not even close.

I must admit, over the years Rivers has grown on me. I use to despise him, now not so much.

Same here. But in the last couple of years I kinda started feeling sorry for him because everyone around him sucked with the execption of maybe a handful of good players. So at the end of last season I started pulling for the Chargers to win some games. Rivers is a dam good qb.
