"Here's what happened: San Diego overcame a 21-point halftime deficit, matching the biggest comeback in franchise history, behind a first-year starting quarterback who kept reminding his teammates that anything was possible. From now on, they'll believe him. The Chargers (7-2) played as poorly as they have all season, allowing the Bengals (4-5) to score touchdowns on their first three possessions. Cincinnati led 28-7 at halftime, but Rivers was unconvinced. "As he grows as a player, he's unbelievable," tight end Antonio Gates said. "He's doing a tremendous job leading this team. He was on the sideline saying they were going to need to score more than 28 points to beat us. What more could you ask for in a leader?" What came next was characteristic of the old Air Coryell days in San Diego, when Dan Fouts led a light-it-up offense. This time, it was Rivers running the show in his best performance yet: 24-of-36 for 337 yards and three touchdowns. "We didn't panic," Rivers said. "We didn't point fingers like some teams around the league do.""

Shoulda bet more than $75.... damn it....

he was talking about the bengals after their loss last week, there was a lot of "finger pointing" going on in the locker room after the loss

I remember the 2004 draft when Jaworski said he had JP Losman rated higher than Rivers. Interesting how that panned out.
