Philip Can Make Magic in a Minute! (Chargers vs. Chiefs December 14th, 2008) | Crazy Ending

[@DarthStoner]

Rest in peace, Vincent Jackson.

[@arturobonilla2489]

You’d often see him partying all night in the gas lamp. I went to the playoff game Jackson was hungover vs Revis. He had gotten a DUI the night before a home Divisional playoff game. It was crazy he looked so bad, and even kicked a flag back at an official. Another victim of CTE?

[@tammermashni8541]

@Arturo Bonilla well at least he wasn't like kellen Winslow Jr getting tweaked out hookers in Vista..he had a drinking problem and eventually other things but r.i.p Vincent Jackson , one of the best recievers we ever had easily top 10

[@adamdixon6326]

Honestly. Rip brotha he was a huge part and contribution to the success that the chargers had during my my childhood memories of the chargers and even till he moved on to the buccaneers. Rip brotha✊️

[@philipcaseyacalloway204]

I miss seeing him and Floyd out there. Awesome one two receiver core.

[@seannoble5810]

Very sad to see players go through what they go through after their playing days are done. On a side note, if Jackson would have remained a charger I think the chargers would have had more success. He was a force as a deep threat and that is something they didn’t really have after him until Kennan Allen was drafted.

[@eugenesatele9434]

A great moment for Philip Rivers. A shame that he never won a Super Bowl

[@pauljones2857]

We just never had a defense

[@Shotts_Fired]

@@pauljones2857 you clearly weren’t a fan from ‘06-‘10. Defense was solid. Just some missed kicks, key injuries and stupid mistakes that kept that team from winning it all

[@mayson9817]

We had a competent defense and the team was stacked in Philips early years, just key missed kicks in the playoffs obviously didn’t do us any good.

@@choosecarefully408 I saw the Jon Bois video about them. From losing to the Patriots in 2006 and 2007, losing to the Jets in 2009, and how they missed the postseason in 2010 this era was nothing but heartbreak

[@choosecarefully408]

@@Ambivalence18 It's really inexplicable. & despite the fact that this was in the QB Decade that had Manning, Brady Favre _AND_ Rodgers, none of them were in their division. You had the so-so Chiefs, the terrible Rams teams & the default division-winning Denver Broncos before Manning came over. You can't even blame bad coaching like those Bills teams that lost superbowls because Marv Levy was a senile old coot who kept thinking that the only way to win games was to run the ball until the opposing D was softened up, _then_ you go for long passes??!? The One Thing I'll be forever grateful to Mike Martz for was the '00 Rams & their long-passing offense. Unfortunately, now the NFL has more teams than quality QBs & they need to bring back short passes & run-heavy offenses, but it's like no one knows HOW to anymore. Andy Reid, despite winning & despite the fact that he's simply calling plays, not running them can't stick to that strategy. I'm amazed it doesn't kill the Chiefs because it hurts their play, especially without Davante Adams.

Wow I always thought Philip choked

[@noahzuniga]

i remember being in the house i grew up with my mom, the biggest charger fan in history, covering her eyes on the chiefs' final field goal to win the game. i remember as a kid screaming "they missed! they missed!" and her jumping up with the biggest smile ever and hugging. even an underachieving team can bring joy. and of course they crushed the broncos in week 17 and knocked off the colts in the playoffs (my mom was there). i loved this 2008 chargers team, even if they were very mediocre.

[@ConnorMiller417]

Rivers was one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game. He was just so skilled with the ball that people seem to overlook him because he played when Big Ben, Rodgers, Brady, the Mannjng bros, and Rodgers playing at the same time. His legacy will live on in Canton!

[@jokerharley1271]

He sucks

[@dcatura1]

The man had LT in his prime and couldn’t make a SuperBowl because of the coaching.

[@dizzydwarf502]

@@dcatura1 As much as I loved LT, he was also nowhere to be found during one of the big playoff game vs Patriots because of a twisted ankle, meanwhile Rivers was playing with a broke rid and torn MCL. The only season in the playoffs where LT was with Rivers and had over 100 yards rushing, and that was 06. In 07/08/09 he didn't get 100 yards rushing in playoffs.... and in 07 that was counting all 3 games combined, a total of 75 yards..... so when it mattered most, LT didn't show. Coaching didn't help that it changed every 3-4 years during Rivers career as a Charger. Especially getting that fucking terrible Anthony Lynn, he was worst HC I've ever seen for the Chargers by a long shot. (Charger fan of 33 years) Not to mention never have any protection up front, he never once even had an average pass blocking O-Line as a Charger, but got one when he went to Colts finally. Multiple playoffs lost by a missed FG from a kicker who didn't miss a single FG during the regular season even. And some of the worst STs in NFL history never helped either (check out 2010 season, literally the worst STs in NFL history, single handedly lost the 5 games in that year).

[@noahmichael2213]

What's funny about this game is it led to the Chargers winning the division over the Broncos and them firing Shanahan. A bunch of other dominoes fell too that led to this huge butterfly effect throughout the AFC, but I don't remember all of them exactly...all because of this comeback

[@Coolquip43]

6:47 still insane that players i used to watch as a kid now have their own kids in the league

[@ThePatriotfan83]

I was at this game. First regular season game I ever attended at arrowhead. My dad and I sat wayyy up stairs. It. was. freezing. I was begging my dad to take us home in the 4th quarter when the chiefs were up 21-10. We got home just in time to see the chiefs botch the onside kick and give up the game winning touchdown. Man those were the days. The chiefs weren’t very good but this 2008 team played with a ton of heart. They had a lot of young players. The rookies were Brandon Flowers, Brandon Carr, Brandon Albert, and of course Jamaal Charles. They only won 2 games but they played a lot of games close. To this day it’s the only chiefs game I’ve ever left early. But i don’t regret it. it was freezing cold. Lol. The chiefs quarterback was Tyler Thielen. It’s a blessing to see Patrick Mahomes play every week. I like to think we suffered through these years so we could be rewarded with this new era of Andy Reid and Mahomes.

[@tdurdon24]

Rivers QB'd some of the most enjoyable Charger games. As long as he was on the field, they had a chance. Some of the best games I've ever seen as a Charger fan. Too bad the owners couldn't get him more talent on o-line and speed at receiver. Should have won a few championships.

[@dizzydwarf502]

They never even attempted to protect him up front, they waited until 3 days after they let him go to the Colts to finally make multiple moves up front for pass protection.... They decided it was more important to protect a QB they didn't even know who it would be yet, instead of one of the best of all time. (They made the moves for protecting the line thinking they would get Tua, that's why they got people to protect the right side of the line, back side for lefty, then they ended up with Herbert instead, a righty)

[@tdurdon24]

@@dizzydwarf502 For sure. I think Marcus McNeil was the highest drafted o lineman the Bolts ever got for Rivers. He was good while heblaste, but he just didn't get the help he deserved, management let him down. Could have been multiple championships. And they never really went after any key free agents, considering how bad they were at drafting talent. It's mind boggling.

Both teams were trying so hard to choke at the end. For the Chiefs obviously giving up two tds and an onside kick. But the Chargers had the delay of game on the 2pt attempt, the decision to squib kick, and the other delay of game that gave KC a chance to kick the fg.

[@dizzydwarf502]

He wouldn't have nearly as high of numbers as River did. Herbert is unable to do much without protection, Rivers had his entire career without protection up front. Herbert throws only bullets so he has to wait for someone to get open, without protection you can't do that. Rivers threw perfect timing passes, without protection he would throw it to the exact open spot in the defense which would throw the receivers open. They are even comparable in skill as QB at this point in Herbert's career.
