The Electric Friar

Posted by ElectricFriar on September 23rd, 2008 in Collection Highlight

In honor of Philip Rivers’ outstanding game last night, I decided to highlight one of his rookie cards.  In this case, his 2004 Bowman Autographed card.  A great rookie autograph, especially since the autograph is on the card itself and not on a sticker.  With the progress he has made this season, the current Beckett value of this card currently stands at $100.  The most recent Ebay sale of this card occurred on Sept. 17th for a total of $50.

As a Charger fan, I can’t say enough about his performance on Monday night.  Despite throwing a pick on his first pass, he settled down and outperformed future Hall of Famer Brett Favre.  His audible and subsequent touchdown pass to Chris Chambers was a thing of beauty.  With the defense playing poorly this season and Ladainian Tomlinson off to a slow start, he carried the team on his back during the first three games.  Rivers currently leads the NFL so far in touchdowns and QB rating.
