There's not much difference, IMO.

Rivers 70% 4048 yds 28 TD 9 INT's 106.9QBR Wins on the road at 11-3 Denver and 10-3 KC
Smith 60% 2873 yds 18 TD 6INt's 85.5 QBR Wins at Phili and at Tennessee (Has 1 less game) I see a little bit of difference and Rivers supporting cast is similar if not inferior to KC's. |

I can easily say that I was ripping on Rivers for his previous two seasons. His turnovers were Geno-esque... but wow... he has been very impressive this season. I hate that, because he is not a Chief/49er nor does he strike me as a classy player.
Would I take him over Alex right now? No. Simply on team consistency/familiarity alone. That, and I still don't think Rivers offers more than Smith does. If Rivers really is more accurate or field aware? I expect that to be far more even as KC progresses... plus, Alex has far more mobility.

I've doubted Rivers, but it seems like he's simply back to being elite. Rivers >>>>>>>>>>>> Alice.

Hate Rivers. Would hate to have to root for him.
I'll acknowledge his physical talent, and he has some swagger, but he's just not mentally tough. I would have to rate him above Smith. He's in that "top ten but never going to be top 5" group for me.

Yeah, he needs to win a SB or he's sort of a not so poor mans Dan Marino.

He's not even in the conversation with Marino. He's Jay Cutler

I think he's much better than Cutler. Can you imagine Rivers with Marshall, Jeffrey, and Forte? They might be as good on offense as the Donks.
I meant guy that racks up big stats without a SB. No he's not Marino which is why I said "Not so poor mans". He's a step up from a poor man's whatever the hell that is |

There are a few players in the NFL I wouldn't want on my team regardless of how good they are. Rivers is one of them.
I just cant stand that guy. If I am going to simply dream about having an elite QB I may as well pick one I like anyway. **** him. |
