When the San Diego Chargers let Drew Brees walk in March, they handed the ball to quarterback Philip Rivers and told him to take them to the playoffs. Now we may find out if he's up to the task.
OK, so it's early, but Sunday's game with Baltimore should tell the Chargers and their fans a lot about Rivers and what he can do for their club.
L.T. has Philip Rivers' back, but at some point the QB will have to win with his arm. Like San Diego, the Ravens are undefeated. Like San Diego, they excel on defense. Like San Diego, they hope to reach the playoffs. But here's the difference: Baltimore has a quarterback it knows it can trust
