Chargers Rivers says lockout will make NFL players better

It's commonly believed that the lockout, now more than 100 days, will result in some pretty shoddySteelers Jerseys
football whenever the 2011 season begins. In fact, our own Mike Freeman inked a column about this, pointing out that reduced playbooks and less conditioning. NFL fans find the ultimate selection of (San Diego Chargers Jerseys) for your favorite team.

But the opinion that the quality of football will suffer isn't universal, in fact, Freeman cited Falcons' coach Mike Smith as saying nothing much would change in that very piece. But Chargers' quarterback Philip Rivers iyes, the same guy who's 'going stir crazy' amid the lockout, has an entirely different, and somewhat surprising stance: he thinks the quality of the NFL's product will be "the best it's ever been."

"The level of play is going to be the best it's ever been," Rivers said, per Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune. "Guys are going to be fresh mentally fresh, which is maybe more important than being physically fresh. For some guys it all runs together. "Now, with it being how it's been, guys doing their different things, if it gets done like we hope, it's going to be kind of like that lost toy you found."

I'd probably disagree with Rivers on his stance, but there's definitely something to his theory. Football is about practice and repetition and whatnot, but it's also a job, and anyone who's ever held a job knows that never getting a break from work can cause mental stress and burn out even the most mentally tough of workers.

Of course, Rivers' theory is also contingent on the fact that NFL teams will get some training camp to prep for the season. "Where the level of play could be hindered is if we don't have a regular training camp," Rivers said. "If we get the regular four to six weeks, I think it's going to be as good as it's ever been."

If, we supply Steelers Jerseys at best price and high quality, as many people, myself included, believe, the lockout ends by the middle of July, it's entirely likely that we'll see teams get just enough practice time to test Rivers' notion. And if he's correct, it's going to be pretty easy to forget this whole summer of discontent that's haunted the NFL.

It may show the owners who is willing to work out on thier own and who needs supervision. I think a prolonged lockout only hurts the players. After all most will not play longer than three years if they are lucky. Many who get drafted or invited to camps only last a short time. The Bret Farves,Mannings,Hines ward jersey
ect. who play many years at a high rate of pay are the lottery winners the rest can only hope to hang around long enough to build a lifetime of security. The owners can wait the players know a lost season is a death sentence to a large majority of players. As there is always another rookie ready to play.It is composed by pittsburghsteelersjerseyshopcom 09.17.2011
