Rivers is supposedly in good shape and coaches a Catholic highschool team. He could be in great shape because he needs to check the egos of Highschool kids and he’s a Catholic who can’t stop having kids (he can field a football team with all of them).

Dude it's a Christmas miracle, he's a grandpa too and against contraception. Taking a break from breeding the Football Chads and Stacys to go and get that miracle 2nd chance ring while the high schoolers brag "that's my coach!" to everyone they know. Top tier Hallmark movie in the making aside from all the niggers and sodomites like KC that have turned away from god.

Mike Tomlin because Steelers fans always expect him to be mid and never fails. (Seriously how has this nigga not been tossed yet?)

Same reason Garbaugh doesn't get touched, they win enough to where they can still potentially make a run. Unfortunately for both Tomlin and Garbaugh, they no longer have Big Ben/James Harrison, or Ray Lewis/Ed Reed to motivate their team, or pull a big play out of their ass when it matters most.

I don't blame Lamar for a lot of his playoff woes because the coaching staff is failing him year after year. No real QB coach to sit down with him after a drive and go over whats next. No DC who knows how to get his defense prepared week after week. No O-Line coach, he fuckin died and they replaced him with a bum, so the years of turning 4th and 5th round picks in to pro bowlers is dead especially since Garbaugh won't hire anyone that isn't vetted by big bro, or comes from within his clique of former Eagles coaches he grew up with.

Also, I saw people on another site whining that they didn't try out Kaep. When he has been out longer, doesn't know anyone on staff, comes with tons of baggage, and the last time he tried out for a team he was basically laughed out of the building his skills had diminished so badly.

I just get the idea they never watched him play.

He was running a RPO scheme under Harbaugh where defenses didn't know if he was passing or pump faking or faking the handoff or handing it off or running it himself or what.

He did well with it, but any mobile QB in the league can run the same scheme. The problem is that it gets your QB killed because if a pass rusher gets home they'll just tackle the shit out of the QB because they don't know if he's passing or pump faking. This is why RG3 mutinied and said he wouldn't run it anymore.

So now, at 38, you expect Kaep to survive a single game?

His wife has spent 1/5 of her life pregnant. If Phil can get the Colts a divisional win, I imagine that Phil will ensure his grandkids grow up with uncles or aunts of similar ages. If he actually does manage to get the Colts to the Super Bowl than he will ensure that woman has kids until menopause.

Seriously look up a picture of his wife. She has that tired look I have only seen in woman who have 4+ kids. Not unhappy, but the “I have brought 10 children into this world” tired.
 
I haven't seen it mentioned how this is but another slap in the face of Anthony Richardson's season. First he has to battle Daniel Jones, a guy seen as a failure after his exit from the lowly Giants, for the starting job. He ends up losing that competition and further cements the idea that he's a bust, all while Jones is looking for be this year's Sam Darnold Award winner. In the meantime he (Richardson) hurts himself in practice, eliminating a chance for him to re-establish a quarterback controversy this year. Eventually Danny Dimes' achilles decides to derp and end his season, leading the way for the answer to the birthrate question, Phillip Rivers, to end a 3 year retirement and lead the Colts to the promised land (Levi's Stadium.)

Apparently hus injury was much worse than reported. Apparently a metal bar he had attached resistance bands to had snapped and the bar rocketed back into his face and came close to snapping his neck.
 
I’m just leaving this here because it made me laugh

Honestly I forgot about Richardson entirely - between the Daniel Jones Redemption Tour and the injury to Richardson that I completely forgot about, he’s probably been seen as a total bust by people who have a much better read on Football than I do.

The fact Danny Derps turned into Indiana Jones with largely the same roster Richardson had is damning. Barring being a Practice Squad Qb on some Bad Teams, methinks he’s cooked.

Couple months ago Tomlin said he told the Steelers defense to avoid injuring Richardson last season because Flacco was the backup. This is kinda damning.

I think Irsay forced that pick since the fans would riot if they stayed on the aging QB carousel.

but hey guess what ride the Colts are on again!

Yeah, I'm largely just being racist for laughs. Show me a black QB with a football IQ or even just a good passing game and I'm all in. That being said, it's a thinking man's position, and I think the odds are against our melanated friends in that department.

If I truly despised black people. I wouldn't watch the NFL.

Maybe Jordan Love? It's not his fault his coach is a pussy and he has mid receivers who run the wrong routes. He seems to have pretty high football IQ most of the time.

First off, yay Shroud welcome back I still believe! Chiefs Pack smoke yada yada Demarco you must run 1000 disguise blitzs hip hip hooray.

I am afraid. The implications of Phillip Rivers coming back is horrifying. Seriously. I remember the 2020 Colts, and I remember who was QB.
The AFC South Playoff Race is pretty close rn.

The Colts still have a gauntlet to run through (Seahawks, 49ers next two weeks), but my issue is with their last two games of the season.
Houston and Jaguars have split their matchups (1-1); but they both face a familiar face during their final weeks.
There is a real possibility that he actually ends up eliminating a AFC South team from the playoffs.

Jags Schedule

Texans Schedule
1765421049058.png

He had a 97 Passer Rating throwing to a 31 year old T.Y Hilton in his last season.
Let's compare this to current QBs.

~97 or less
1765423132550.png ​
~100
1765423171281.png

Let's rightfully assume that there may be some obvious regression from not playing for 5 years. Still, let's compare the receiving corps.
2020 2025
1765422104350.png 1765422160879.png
The left is the 2020, and the right is 2025.

31 year old T.Y Hilton <<<<< Pittman Jr, Warren, and Pierce.
2020 Taylor <<<<< 2025 Taylor
2020 Defense < 2025 Defense (22.6/g vs 21.9/g).
Everything around him has actually improved since 2020.

Even if Phillip Rivers doesn't get to ride into the sunset with a ring, I don't want him to throw an egg on week 16 to the Jags, and leave with a legendary farewell game, eliminating the Texans from the playoffs. It's also entirely possible that he actually brings the Colts to the playoffs.
Don't you want to see a #1 Defense in the playoffs? I really do...​

Please... i don't want him to get hurt, especially against my Seahawks (seriously the thought of Rivers getting hurt makes me genuinely nervous rn)

Well, he's playing for the Colts, not the Commanders, so we at least don't have a history of brutalizing the shoes he's filling. Long-term, anyway.
I wouldn't be surprised if MacDonald tells the D to be real gentle putting him on the ground though. They play the 49ers next week, and we want them to be at peak condition for that.
