Indianapolis Colts QB Philip Rivers in 2019 tied for second in the AFC with the Cleveland Browns’ Baker Mayfield and the Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes with 27 big-time throws (Pro Football Focus’ highest-graded throws on precise downfield passes).

Footballguys View: Rivers also made a lot of mistakes on downfield throws last year and appeared to be in decline. Hopefully a better offensive line and strong running game helps him become more efficient. Mayfield’s number is encouraging in an otherwise discouraging season. Mahomes would have led the league in this stat if he had played 16 games.
