He didn't yell at Cutler if you've read his interviews since then, he was talking to Phillips and Whilem since he was already of the game at that point. Cutler however was talking shit according to Shaun Phillips which is why he and Whielm were pointing to the scoreboard and waving while Rivers was with them. The whole indy thing wasn't even that he said "thank you I appricate it, Ill be back", which makes him a liar...certainly not an asshole.
I mean unless hes done something major since then I don't think you can really call him an ass. Its all Media Spin to make him look a certain way hes always had fun with fans on the road his entire NFL Career. Remember the Bengals game last year where the Chargers had a fourth quater came back to win 49-41? Rivers went over to the fans after they scored and yelled "Did you think it was over?". I didn't see that blown up all over ESPN like his antics lately have been. In fact if your going to put Rivers on your shit list, I hope Bret Favre is #2 or #3 for all his talking during his career on field.
Shawne Merriman though I'd agree seems like abit of an ass on the field lol |
if you really believe he wasn't shit-talking Cutler, you need to take the blinders off.
I've actually hated him since his rookie season. After the got drafted he did an interview and put on this bullshit "aw shucks, I'm just happy to get drafted" act, and then he held out because he wanted a deal bigger than what Eli got, using the logic that the team that he ended up getting drafted by had the #1 pick, so he should be the highest paid player in the draft. So much for that "just happy to get drafted" attitude, huh?
Plus, he really just looks like a stereotypical douchebag. I mean...he did his post-game interview yesterday in a fucking American Eagle polo shirt. All he needed to do was pop his collar and he'd have the suburban douchebag uniform down pat
And, just to agree with you guys, Brandon Jacobs does kinda get on my nerves a little bit. During the game, my friend texted me saying "Every time Jacobs scores I'm afraid we're going to get a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty"
