Rivers’ boring beats Mahomes’ flash
While the entire NFL world has been buzzing over Pat Mahomes incredible viral highlights and eye-popping arm strength, Philip Rivers has put together an MVP caliber season with next to no headlines.
Rivers may not generate clicks like Mahomes, but in last night’s Thursday Night Football showdown he was the better quarterback, and carried his shorthanded team to a massive road win, including making the throw of the NFL season on a crucial 4th quarter 4th down. Mahomes is a great talent, but too many people have fallen to had and fast for him and overlook that he’s come up short in his three biggest games this year. Rivers may be boring in comparison, but he’s on another level when it comes to playing QB in the NFL. It’s not close.
