I'm watching the Chargers - Titans game and I see Rivers sit down on the bench and LT immediately stand up and

Question

walk away. Ummmm Is he an absolute jerk or what? Do you ever see this kind of attitude on a team like Indy or The New England Patriots? Will the Chargers ever start playing as a team with a egotistical guy like that. Not arguing he is not the ultimate RB in football, but what a great sport eh? Your thoughts welcome on LT and the Chargers in general.

Answer 1

Last year everyone thought he was the class of the NFL. Put some pressure on him and his true nature comes out. He's good but has a poor attitude.

Answer 2

He's supposed to be one of the classiest guys in the league right now. But of course that's not true. Just recall those comments he made about the Patriots starting from the loss in the playoff game until the cheating thing broke out. He hasn't spoken any trash about the Patriots after getting smacked in Foxboro.
But then again, I just might have done the same thing if I was LT. Philip Rivers is plain awful. How the hell did this guy get to the Pro Bowl last year instead of Tom Brady?

Answer 3

I DVR'ed the game and watched it again last night. When that part came up, I didn't think it was anywhere near as impactful than I did when I was watching the telecast earlier that morning. LT was obviously thinking about something and Rivers wasn't even looking at LT when he sat down. And, it looked to me that LT had just had some kind of thought or idea right before he got up.

When asked about it, LT said that he had no idea what everyone was talking about until someone explained to him what was caught on the TV camera. He said that, at that moment, he had just thought of something he wanted to talk with a couple of O-line players about.

And, after watching the game again, that's exactly what it looked like.

Answer 4

I think there's more to the Rivers / LT cold shoulder than we know.

By nature of his position, Rivers should be the unequivocal leader of that team, and the guy others look to when they need a rally. Despite that, I frequently see him taking plays off. That's a terrible attitude for a starter to have.

I'm not forgiving LT's reaction at all -- he should stick by his team lead no matter what -- but it's obvious they need better leadership from the head-down on this squad to prevent these kinds of things from coming to a head. Norv Turner has never once shown that he's capable of leading a team of professional athletes to the promised land, and as long as he's in charge, San Diego will continue to put up unspectacular numbers every week.

Answer 5

everywhere interior the stands with the help of a techniques beats the field seats (apart from sitting interior the blistering August warmth on an afternoon game) THEN i could evaluate the AC of the field. i admire the bleachers and the possibility to return homestead with a HR ball, or everywhere else interior the park and catching a foul ball. The smell of the nutrients interior the ballpark is often large too.

Answer 6

LT is a great sportsman, but some times people get upset. I mean come on I would be a little pissed to Rivers is a bust they should of kept Brees.

Answer 7

LT went to talk to his o-line. Then he and Rivers put up 20 unanswered points to win the game.

You know who is an absolute jerk? Bill Bellichick.

Answer 8

I didn't see that but I think Lt is a pretty good sport. You saw this so u are probably right but I hope your wrong because LT is a very good player. I hope he is also a good guy. Thats my opinion

Answer 9

I know this is not an answer to your question, but what a physical game! These guys are beating each other up!
