Philip Rivers signs 6-yr, $92M extension

Chargers' Rivers to get $38.5M guaranteed in deal

39 to 92 is a lot of swing room, must be performance incentives.  If that's the case I love the deal.

Acutally the difference has to do with how much could be lost according to injury and what not.  Out of the 92 Million 38.5 of it he will get no matter what.  Now say he got injured,   Aritcle XII of the CBA when injured a "qualified" player will earn 

A player qualifying under Section 1 above will receive an amount equal to 50% of his contract salary for the season following the season of injury, up to a maximum payment of $275,000, if he is released pursuant to Section 1(c) above in the 2006-08 League Years unless he has individually negotiated more injury protection or a larger guaranteed salary into his contract.

CBA Article XII Section 2

This would mean he would get part of his 92 million but not all of it.  So basically the gaurantied part is the amount he will get no matter what, if he is injured, cut, whatever.  And the rest is amounts he will earn if he stays on the team, with some possible performance incentives.

Just happy we got Romo for 67.5 million. Seems they get more expensive every year. Espurs117

Yea, the amount that starting quarterbacks are getting paid is ridiculous now adays.

Way to prove that if someone does not believe what you do, they are wrong and their opinion does not matter.

Based on statistics from last season Phillip Rivers is on average the 6th best quarterback in the NFL, Tony Romo is 12th.

Nice job by the Chargers signing him for the years.

Should be able to win a ring as well with that talent around him.

Yeah and according to the year before that he was the 18th best, your theory is a joke just like your posts. I never said Romo was better, Ryder and I go at it in a friendly funny way yet you have to just stick your face in there to get some attention because all the girls in Wisconsin are into Badgers more than the men there. Stop posting like a moron.

He had one OK year and the Browns, in their infinite wisdon, overpaid him.

Yeah and your basing rank on a year aren't you? You just said Rivers was so much better than Romo based on last year. Because it surely wasent for what Rivers did the last 3 years. According to your little ranking thing Rivers was based 18th the year before. Try and catch up.

I just said last season that Philip Rivers was better than Romo, and that payers get paid based on how they did last season.  Also, Anderson did not do good last year, which is why he has no fans, therefore he would be ranked lower than both Romo and Rivers.

PS: Career wise the two Quarterbacks actually have very similar statistics, so Dallas actually got Romo for quite a bargain.

And my point was that you just trashed a person without even looking into the fact that from their point of view their opinion could be valid and that their opinion could be backed up by some facts.  If you felt like Romo was better you should have posted some reasons why he was better, instead of just saying his opinion meant nothing.

His opinion on anything related to Dallas means nothing. He just bashes them no matter what it is. He picks against them on pickem every week and says he doesnt care if he wins. His opinion means nothing. Just like when we hear you and bgres go down on favre and say OMG TOP 5 QB! We simply ignore it and laugh.

Only if it's Tom Brady and Brett Favre of January 2008, Rivers in college, and everyone else now, and I'm not even sure about Marino.
