Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers says “there was never a lack of composure” during his team’s 41-28 drubbing at the hands of the Patriots Sunday afternoon at Gillette Stadium.
“I think sometimes my demonstrative movements may look that way, but I was just poised as could be,” Rivers told reporters. “The whole time.”
As the Patriots continued to pile on the points in the first half, however, Rivers appeared increasingly agitated at the stagnant production from his team and the lack of calls from the officiating crew. He endured seven hits and two sacks, often griping to the referee upon picking himself up from the turf.
