Why are so many national writers so high on the Chargers?

He got caught up in ShEli's pussy move in the draft to not play in SD. Pitt wanted Rivers, The Giants wanted Rapelisburger after ShEli. It should've gone:
1. ShEli
4. Rape
11. Rivers
NYG GM Ernie Accorsi had a hard-on for ShEli since he'd missed out on Elway with his pussy draft move years earlier, refusing to play for the Colts while Accorsi was the GM in Indy.
Rivers would have won a SB in his first season in Pittsburgh, just like Rape did because w/ Pitt's defense it didn't matter who you trotted out as a QB. Rape was horrible in his first season but it couldn't stop that defense.
If he went to the Giants they would've won but it wouldn't have been half as entertaining since it wouldn't have involved the last second heroics ShEli pulled out of her ass.
(sure I've had a couple of few beers, but the above writing is pretty solid historical football analysis)

If it didn't matter who was QB why were the 2003 Steelers 6-10 and the 2004 steelers 15-1?

They kept the reigns on him with low attempts, but Ben averaged 8.9 YPA and had a QB rating of 98.

That's not horrible at all. Especially from a rookie who had not played in a pro style offense.

I'll also point out that Rivers had, arguably, the most talented supporting cast in the entire league for at least 3 seasons and accomplished NOTHING with it.
