I know, but I didn't get to watch Joe's career. I've seen first hand that Big Ben is an average QB.
Congrats. The greatest thing he's ever done statistically was finish in the top 5 passer rating statistic a few times (if you go by that stat as a barrometer, Romo is a better all time qb than Brees and Brady). The year before Ben was drafted, Tommy Maddox was top 5 in passer rating. Charlie Batch (who was a pretty underrated qb though) and Dennis Dixon have looked good with that defense over the years.

Right this minute big ben might be the most overrated american athlete in history.
It boggles my mind that we've gotten to a point where people realize that win-loss record is a pretty terrible way to judge pitchers but many still want to do it with qbs.
Big Ben is like a guy who goes to work and does average work most of the day, causes problems that are cleaned up by excellent co-workers, doesn't contribute a whole lot and then 10 mins before quitting time comes up with a solid idea, not brilliant mind you just solid, and afterward people just talk about how he's "an idea guy" and forget about all the fires he started.
We should all be so lucky to be judged the way he is
