Big Ben can get it done in the clutch. :cool:

And how about the Chargers. They got rid of Brees to keep Rivers. How's that working out for ya?

Roethlisberger has more rings.... and he was able to lead his team on a game winning drive in the Super Bowl. Manning... not so much.

I don't think the Charges are losing any Sleep at night over the Decision they made between Brees, and Rivers.

So you guys really think Ben Roethlisberger is really a better QB overall than Peyton Manning?

Or are you just basing that off the playoffs?

They should be.

And somewhere so should the Falcons, who traded Brees and LT for Mike Vick. How'd that one work out for them?:(

They are Steelers fans. Their team is "god's gift to football."

Good thing they didn't go for 16-0.

Looks like that paid off.

I agree with the Falcons, but lets not pretend that Rivers is a bad QB, he's probably Top 5 in the NFL

Manning, Brady, Brees, Big Ben, Rivers

I'm just joking around. I like Manning and I think he's one of the all time greats, but you have to give Roethlisberger credit for playing well in clutch situations.

Rivers is a bum. He's got a big mouth and runs it frequently, and then always comes up small in big games.

I just hope the Manning is the greatest of all time talk can now officially stop now. BTW, I would take Ben over him any day.

Yeah... for some reason I'm not a big fan of Rivers. Maybe all the Chargers' great seasons that ended in the playoffs would have ended in a Super Bowl if they would have kept Brees.

And yes.... the guy who thought it was a good idea to trade Brees and LT for Vick should be banned from football for life.

Manning is awesome but can't let him off the hook if you're going to hammer Favre every time he comes up short.

That was a big interception thrown in the clutch moment.

The Falcons didn't exactly trade Brees and LT for Vick. The Chargers had the first pick and traded it to the Falcons. The Falcons took Vick. The Chargers then took LT with the traded pick and Brees with their regular 2nd pick. Three other teams besides the Falcons passed up LT and Brees fell completely out of the 1st round anyway.
