Mike McCoy: Philip Rivers is "one of the best"

San Diego Chargers head coach Mike McCoy believes that his side's quarterback Philip Rivers is "one of the best" in the NFL.

The Chargers have started the season 1-1 as Rivers has thrown for seven touchdowns and just one interception in the opening two weeks of the campaign.

When asked if Rivers could be the Chargers' starting quarterback for many years, McCoy told NFL Network: "Without a doubt — there is no doubt in my mind, I've said that since Day 1."

"Phil's one of the best in the league, and I was confident that if everyone around him was doing their job better, he'd be fine."

San Diego face the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.
