I think we’re all a little close to this one because we’re all Rivers fans. Some of us are also San Diego fans.
I love Rivers. I’d rather have him than all but a few NFL starting QBs. I feared from the second Rivers went to SD that he’d end up like Marino. I was hoping he’d get out, but it hasn’t happened. It’s a shame.
Let’s look at this another way. Let’s say another middling small market team bouncing around the playoff marker (say KC Chiefs, Cincinnati, Minnesota, Buffalo) just made E. Manning the highest paid QB in football. What would we say? What would we say if they did that, and they were also rumored to be moving? What would we say if Eli had been there for years, is probably going to move out of his prime, and yet they still signed him despite never really winning anything? I’m just looking at this from a business angle.
