If Leftwich had a halfway decent offensive line, he'd be better than Big Ben, but as of now, I say no. I think Ben is a Top 10 QB, not Top 5.

If Ben isn't a top 5 QB, then who are 5 others who could top him? I say that he is a #1 QB teamwise since he has only lost to one team in his entire career. Stats wise, he isn't too great since he doesn't pass a whole lot.
Big Ben is probably a top 5, but he's had a hard time proving it this season with all his injury trouble.
Ahead of Brady? No. Manning? noSo there are your top two, and he isn't better than McNabb when he is in form. Plus I can't put him ahead of Carson Palmer, so that leaves that 5 spot open. Hel I ahve no clue who gets #5. Perhaps Michael Vick, but he played like death this year
NFLSundayHow about Brady, PManning, Palmer, McNabb, Brees, Plummer, Hasselbeck(Very Underrated), and then Roethlisberger, Leftwich, EManning, Vick, ect.
Well if not 5, then he has to fit into 10 because most of the QB's that you have listed have a hard time even making the playoffs such as Brees and Vick. Even though Eli Manning has made the playoffs, he still isn't that great, and Ben is way better than him.
Because of his injury, he has been overlooked this year...I guess when he's injured and playing hes a top 10butwhen he's healthy, I'd definately put him up there with the top 5
This season, Ben led his team to SB 40, so I put him at #1. I think he will be a very successful QB in the future and will lead the Steelers to many more SB trips. I would also have him at #1 because he beat Peyton Manning, the "best" QB in the league.
I don't think he is the #1 guy (he's my favorite though) but I definately feel he is a top 5 QB. Don't forget that the Steelers pass offense is very much accompanied by their powerful rushing offense. But yeah, Roe gets the job done every Sunday.He isn't #1 right now, wait 'til he develops more, by the end of his career I believe he will be the best QB ever.
Peyton ManningTom BradyDonovan McNabbCarson PalmerDrew BreesWhich one is he better then? I dont think hes a better QB then any of those 5. Id still put him in the 6-8 group with Roethlisberger, Plummer, and Hasselbeck
I think he's better than Brees, and competes with Palmer IMO.Brees has a lesser passer rating, and tends to throw more interceptions.
Ben is THE #1 QB in the league, in my opinion. He led his team from being the #6 seed in the playoffs to the big dance in Detroit! This, after he missed games due to injury during the season. With Big Ben as QB, and as long as the Steelers allow him to pass, the Steelers can beat ANY team in the NFL, and pretty much have. We beat the #1, #2, and #3 seeds to get where we are, so you can all eat shit and die...(lol). I believe!
