As long as we are hoping I'm also hoping AR bonds with River like he has with no other QB and learns from the man

It is definitely a hail mary, and the only one with a chance of success. I never thought I would ever pull for Rivers, but 2020 changed that for me.

Rapaport says old man Rivers will start in Seattle.

It was obvious from the moment they wouldn’t name a starter that it would be Rivers.

Tells you a lot about what they think of Leonard.

Oh well. It’ll be interesting anyway.

Thinking about the hail mary concept, I must say it feels more like a hail mary with AAron Rodgers throwing it at the end that it would with Curtis Painter throwing it. Rodgers had a high success rate on those throws in comparison with the rest of the QB field.

Colts are activating Philip Rivers to their active roster from their practice squad, paving the way for him to make his first NFL start in five years Sunday at Seattle.

By signing to the active roster today, Rivers also now will go from being a semi-finalist for this year’s Pro Football Hall of Fame to not being eligible again until 2031.

He’s risking a lot and it says a lot that he’s willing to risk all this to give the organization and Irsay family a shot.

I’m hoping for a miracle, Rivers or Leonard, Win for Jim and keep us in the playoff hunt

If Philip Rivers gets pro-rated vet minimum ($1.255m) for final 4 games, that's roughly $280,000. Per
@overthecap
, Rivers' career earnings is $242m. He's got kids to feed, but this isn't about $$$.

Rivers sees the forest for the trees ....... he knows that he was a great quarterback in his prime, and he doesn't need the Hall-of-Fame to confirm that.

Babe Ruth copied Shoeless Joe Jackson's swing, and said that Jackson was the greatest natural hitter that he ever saw ...... everybody knows that Jackson was one of the greatest players of all-time. He doesn't need to be inducted to the Hall-of-Fame for confirmation.

(vs. SEAHAWKS, 12/14)


My initial feeling was that after today the Colts should go with Riley Leonard, but not anymore ...... after starting the game going 3-for-8, Philip Rivers went 15-for-19, and that includes when he intentionally threw the ball away several times.

In my rat's ass of an opinion, Rivers is the guy that we ought have in there going forward for the rest of the season.

A guy who can't roll out, scramble or even run one yard? Can't avoid a sack, and definitely not a QB sneak in him anywhere. Can't throw over 15 yards without it looking like a hanging knuckle ball. Ya, lets fucking do that
