Mariota might turn out to be a strong Madden NFL 24 quarterback however, for the moment it's the Chargers have the five-time Pro Bowler who has earned MVP talk at times, during the 2014 season. A decline in the production as well as the quality of MUT 24 Coins play is not a surprise, but Rivers hasn't shown any signs to suggest he'll be less than one of the best quarterbacks in the Madden NFL 24 in 2015.
The moves could suggest the idea that San Diego is ready to be a contender for the playoffs in the near future. But trading for a Pro Bowl quarterback to replace the 21-year-old rookie would send the opposite message. It's a sign that the Chargers are in a position to revamp their roster and to compete for an AFC West title once Mariota has adjusted to Madden NFL 24.
Given that Peyton Manning showing signs of his decline in the 2014 season, the AFC West looks as open to grab as ever and the Chargers could be in good position to capture the opportunity if Rivers is who takes the shots.
Any trade featuring a franchise quarterback has to buy MUT 24 Coins be considered with a grain of salt. But in the case of Rivers the trade is not an unusual proposition. The Chargers may be missing an opportunity if they don't decide to make the move that appears to be laid out before them. It's even Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune, who has been open about his closeness to Rivers and believes that the team ought to trade the veteran quarterback in the event that Mariota is the guy it's looking to trade.
