“I’m capable enough physically and mentally, there’s no question,” Rivers said after Sunday’s 24-17 loss to the Oakland Raiders. “Yes, I do want to play football. I do, and that’s how I feel deep down as I stand here.”
“There’s a lot of factors,” Rivers said. “There’s a personal side and family side to mine. I’m going to have a daughter in college as well, too. So time is ticking, and I’ve got a sixth-grade son that I’ve got to get ready to coach at some point, so there’s all kinds of factors.

“But I know I can still do it, and I know I can still do it at a high enough level for us to win. I have not done it well enough this year, but I still do love to play, and love to lead these guys and this team. It’s been an array of things that have compounded, to keep us from winning enough games to advance into the tournament.”

Hardest thing for some teams to do is move on. 

And Rivers has done all he can during his time in San Diego. 

He’ll never win in a Chargers uniform.
