Anyone remember Mike Ruth NT from Boston College?
He was great at running full bore and hitting nothing on kickoffs and getting schooled by Dolphins Center Dwight Stevenson.
Strong as a bull, but short arms.
Anyone remember NT Mike Ruth out of Boston College?
Benched a mountain of weight, but he had short arms and could separate from offensive linemen. He was an unguided missile on the kickoff team, but my defining memory of him was watching him hopelessly dance with Dolphins great center Dwight...
To clarify my OP:
If Rivers had been drafted by NE the same year as Brady, and Brady wasn't drafted by the Pats, then Rivers would have won 2-3 Super Bowls by now.
I also disagree that Rivers couldn't have beat Seattle in that Super Bowl. He beat that Seattle team in 2014, hitting 28 of 37...
I thought Rivers played great the last time he played Seattle.
Passing
P. Rivers

That's a great performance vs a elite D
If the Patriots had drafted Phillip Rivers, he would have won 2-3 Superbowls here.
I think his quick release and style would have meshed with Pat's system.
