I'm naive on this rule, but how was Phillip Rivers able to fumble the ball, pick it up while on BOTH knees and pass the ball? I thought if you have two knees down, you are down, end of play?

The rule you are referencing here is for back who is rushing and gives himself up to a tackler. Rivers was not rushing on that play -- indeed, he had fumbled the ball -- so I don't think it applies there. A quarterback is legally allowed to pass from his knees, I believe.[boxing]

Then when he did drop to both knees, no opposing player touched him to rule the play over. So he was perfectly within his right to throw the ball since the play was still alive.

I guess I read the rules wrong when they said 1 knee = down, regardless of being contacted. It's not the first time I didn't understand a rule.

just saw a different replay on the williams pick six. Rivers missed someone wide open deep down middle on the play.

on the one hand it was a sweet play. But hidden underneath is the same problem that showed itself all game, and has done so all year. bad pass defense getting covered up by big flashy plays.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Normally, it's the offense that goes into a lull this time of year. This year for once it's the defense. But they're still playing enough to win. I'll bet you all a shot of whiskey they hit their stride for the playoffs.
