First off, I have seen Ben Roethlisberger listed on here numerous times as being "underrated". I don't see how, especially considering all the praise showered on him by the national media who lump him in with "elite" QB's like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Just because his TEAM won 2 Super Bowl titles, all of a sudden that makes him an elite QB?

People, just because you were the quarterback on the best TEAM does not make you an "elite" quarterback. You could have put any number of NFL QB's under center for the Steelers last year and they still would have won because of an excellent supporting cast. Their defense was awesome, and Big Ben had nothing to do with that.

I don't want to hear the "Super Bowl ring" argument either. Trent Dilfer has a ring too, while Dan Marino does not. Anyone want to argue that Dilfer was an "elite" QB, or that marino was not? Didn't think so.

Now, Hines Ward, that's a different story. He does not get nearly as much national attention as he deserves, probably because Roethlisberger seems to get all the credit. If I could pick between having either Ward or Ben on my team, I pick Ward every day and twice on Sunday.
