Philip Rivers - New HC confident in Philip Rivers

San Diego Chargers QB Philip Rivers has seen his play slip over the last two season, particularly in terms of ball security; however, new head coach Mike McCoy is confident he can get the best out of Rivers in 2013. "I think Philip's gonna do a great job with us," McCoy said. "We're very fortunate to have him here. A very talented player and a great guy to have as the face of your franchise."
Huddle Up: McCoy is fresh off of working with Peyton Manning, but more importantly he was able to wring productivity out of both Tim Tebow and Kyle Orton so you have to like his chances with Rivers.

Mike McCoy accepts Chargers' head coaching position

The Chargers have the Ravens to thank for their new head coach. On Tuesday, Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy agreed to become San Diego's replacement for Norv Turner. McCoy had been the Broncos' OC since 2009. During that time, he helped Kyle Orton put up the best seasons of his career, retooled the team's offense for Tim Tebow that led to a playoff victory, and oversaw the season in which Peyton Manning could be named Comeback Player of the Year and Most Valuable Player. Now he will turn his attention to Philip Rivers, who has seen his completion percentage and touchdown rates drop over the past two seasons while he has committed 47 turnovers in his last 32 games.

The Chargers have tabbed Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy to be their next head coach. McCoy was also sought after by the Cardinals, Jaguars, and Bears, but he ultimately decided to stay in the division he's coached in since 2009. McCoy has built a credible reputation as an offensive minded coach through his ability to adapt to the diverse set of Broncos quarterbacks-Kyle Orton, Tim Tebow, and Peyton Manning-he has seen in his time in Denver.

According to insider Jason LaCanfora, the Chargers are set to hire Mike McCoy as their next HC.  McCoy has spent the past 4 seasons as OC in Denver, where he's adeptly morphed his offense to fit the personnel.  His QBs have ranged from Kyle Orton to Tim Tebow to Peyton Manning.  The Broncos were a top 13 passing offense in the 3 seasons with Orton and Manning.  They were #1 in rushing yards in the Tebow season.  Simply put, McCoy has displayed a knack for getting the most out of his offense.  We like the hire for San Diego's skill-position players.

While the Seahawks had an open competition at quarterback heading into the preseason, it was reasonable to believe Matt Flynn would get the nod to start the season. After all, Flynn has had success in the few starts he had back in Green Bay, and Seattle gave him starter money in the open market this offseason.

Dwayne Bowe was one of the fantasy MVPs of 2010 when he led all receivers with 15 TD receptions and finished as the No. 4 scoring fantasy receiver after an 11-game injury plagued season in 2009.

But 2011 was a step backward for both the Kansas City Chiefs and Bowe. Injuries cost the Chiefs a chance to repeat as AFC West champs and Bowe’s TD total fell to five––ending the season as the No. 14 fantasy wideout.

Denver Broncos WR Eric Decker: 2012 Fantasy Football Profile

Source: Bleacher Report NFL

Although he led the team in receiving across the board last year, things certainly could have gone much better for Broncos receiver Eric Decker on an individual basis.

During the first four games last season, Decker had 20 receptions for 262 yards and four touchdowns. Had he maintained that pace over the course of a full season, Decker would have finished with a very respectable line of 80 receptions for 1,048 yards and a ridiculous 16 touchdowns.

Instead Decker finished the season with team highs of only 44 receptions for 612 yards and eight touchdowns.

While he was on track to have a breakout season, a quarterback switch from Kyle Orton to Tim Tebow in Week 5 completely derailed any chance of that.

If you’ve read many fantasy football articles this off-season, you’ve probably heard the same thing repeated over and over again when it comes to wide receivers—the position is deep.

Aside from Calvin Johnson, the clear-cut top receiver in the league, there seems to be quite a bit of debate over who are the next best receivers. It’s because of this debate that many of the receivers are falling further than they probably should.

One of those players who may be valued too low at the moment is third year Denver Broncos receiver Demaryius Thomas.
