Is it a perception issue? Maybe. Does it really have anything to do with him not making a SB? Probably not but the fact is a lot of people think he is whiny. Pouty was another common word.
Don't act like this is the first time you have heard him called whiny or a little bitch.

The reason the Chargers haven't made the Super Bowl was because in 2006, Rivers had a serious knee injury and couldn't play to his normal level in the AFC Championiship game. LT didn't help him out, either.
In 2008, the Chargers would have been in the Super Bowl if AJ Smith would have dumped LT and kept Michael Turner. Instead, he did the opposite and Turner lead the league in rushing.
I really don't give a **** if someone is "whiny" or "bitchy". All I care about is if they perform on the field, which is something Rivers has done with excellent results since taking over the franchise in 2006 with the departure of Drew Brees.
Elvis Grbac could have been the dipshit, mouth-breathing, doe-eyed dumb**** he was any day of the week for years on end, IF he had won a Super Bowl or had HALF the career that Rivers has enjoyed.
The bottom line is that I don't give a **** what someone's like in the huddle.
Win or go home.
