Bias?[edit]

This article reads like it was composed by his agent. It is nothing more than a series of accolades.Tony Reed (talk) 15:39, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am not a registered user, but I saw the the height was incorrectly listed as 6'11, and attempted to correct it using info from NFL.com and ESPN.com, and tried to insert these references, but the page could not read something correctly. Sorry for the problem. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.237.10.64 (talk) 05:06, 4 January 2009 (UTC) [reply]

Possible Green Bay bias in here as listing Aaron Rodgers having a higher passer rating than Steve Young. While he does, he doesn't have enough attempts to be listed as that in a career listing yet. Minimum is 1,500 and Rodgers has only around 1,110. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.94.71.168 (talk) 14:00, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another bias - it states that Rivers has the fewest ints in a season with 9. Steve Deberg of the Chiefs had the fewest with 4 in 1990. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.24.44.16 (talk) 21:36, 26 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another bias? - The page claims that Rivers was responsible for "leading" the Chargers to the AFC title game. Rivers left the game with a knee injury. Billy Volek replaced Rivers at quarterback and led the game-winning drive. Volek scored the winning touchdown.^[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.84.118.112 (talk) 07:12, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
