NFL, Give me a Herbert and Rivers playoff game and my life is yours

The Rivers Revival arc is the equivalent to the Mike Tyson/ Paul fight for us Charger fans and I’m here for it. More teams should just bring out legends instead of trotting out Brosmer tier failures.
Please let there never be a Chargers/Colts playoff game. It would be like someone forcing you to watch your two children battle to the death.
Will be a miracle if we get to the SB with this o-line, this is the next best thing
Honestly might be emotional when I see him on the field. IF our paths cross in the playoff, it’ll probably at SoFi. Might just have to go to that game.
That would be something. If there was ever a game where I’d wear one of those cringey half cut jerseys this would be it
I sincerely hope that no real Charger fans here would ever root for the Colts over our own team if it ever came to this. Seriously.
That would be virtually impossible because we are competing for the same spot. If the Colts make the playoffs, it’s because we missed them
AFC title game. Rivers throws pick 6 and helps us make SB
Im rooting for him! Unless we match up directly im gonna be pulling for the colts this playoffs, what a crazy story it would be if they could go on a run with a 44 year old rivers
Go secure that HOF spot gramps
I would start crying 30 minutes before kickoff and continue on until the middle of the fourth and pass out from exhaustion and refuse to wake up as I do not want to know if dad or Herbert won or loss
Football gods are writing the playoff script now as we speak.
Didn’t we retire Phil a Charger? Since he’s back on the colts, what does that mean for that? Will we have to do it again? Would we even do it? I want him to retire a charger 🙁
No thanks
Rooting for Dad to make the playoffs one last time. If it’s not the Chargers I’d want Phil and the Colts to win a ring.
This is literally the last thing I want. I would swing for the Chargers still but it would kinda be a lose-lose

I would have to pull for Phill
I honestly don’t know who id root for in that scenario. Obviously im a chargers fan, but Rivers coming back and making a playoff run to the superbowl would be some legendary shit!
Colts not making playoffs
This is wild honestly lol
I would root for Phil in this scenario. Nobody on this earth deserves a ring more than him. If the chargers were to beat him, I would still be happy of course because my favorite team won. But he is legitimately my childhood idol and watching him compete for a ring again would be a dream come true. I could never root against Rivers.
It is January 25, 2026. The Colts and Chargers are playing in the AFC championship game at Sofi Stadium. The Chargers are led by a now perfectly healthy Justin Herbert, and the Colts are being led by Philip Rivers, who has played the best football of his life in the initial playoff games. The game is a shootout, Justin Herbert has put up 363 yards and 4 TDs, connecting with Ladd, Hampton, and Keenan twice in the endzone. Rivers has had a similarly fantastic game, with 401 yards and 3 TDs. In the final minute of the 4th quarter, the Colts are winning 32-31. The Chargers get into field goal range, ready to win the game, but a costly fumble turns the ball over. The Colts get into victory formation, ready to win the game. The Colt’s players, coaches, and fans are already buzzing thinking about the Superbowl in 2 weeks. As the final seconds tick, Philip Rivers takes the snap to kneel for victory. A tear runs down his cheek and then a small smile forms. Instead of kneeling, Rivers turns and runs through the back of his own endzone. FINAL: Chargers win 33-32. In his final snap ever of NFL football, Rivers decides to send his Chargers back to the Superbowl for the first time since 1995.
the scriptwriters working overtime right now
Rivers knocking out Pats and Denver in the playoffs and the AFC Title game is Colts at Chargers would be amazing
AFC Championship game. Either we get to go to the SB or Phil finally does. Would be by far the least upset I could possibly be if we lose a game away from the SB.
Now how would we feel if he gets sacked lol
With Herbert Winning!
No thanks, I’d rather not see my two fav NFL players die on the field (Rivers cause he’s old and Herb cause our O line is trash)
When can I update Madden to then trade for Rivers?!
I know its wrong to root for an AFC team and all but goddamn it would be crazy fun and some movie shit to see Rivers make a playoff run. Obviously, I’ll be rooting for our guys but I will definitely be tuning into the colts games if Rivers gets the starting spot. Crazy story if this is how he gets his ring but realistically, I’m praying this doesn’t turn into one of things like your favorite fighter or boxer coming out of retirement to get beat up in front of the world.
seriously i need this so bad
Don’t get my hopes up like that 🥺
I could never cheer against Rivers.
All the people who are clamoring for this rivers versus Chargers scenario, please tell me who is missing the playoffs to allow both of them to make it? Because I just don’t see it.
This is the exact color and number jersey I wore last night during the game! Rivers is a legendary QB.
