Most overated: Vick or Roethlisberger?

SteamDaddy · Nov 26, 2006

Vick is a great athlete/runner but a horrible decision maker and thrower. How he is still a qb is beyond me.

Roethlisberger was protected by a great defense and running game his first 2 years. Now that D is not so strong and running game not as strong.
He has to make plays this year and he is being exposed bigtime ranking 25th among NFL qb ratings.

I give the edge to Vick at this point but both are horrible

Die hard falcon fan here.......But I have to agree Vick makes horrible choices.....Another year of saying maybe next year for me

Journeyman · Nov 26, 2006

Its unfair to put this on Ben, their D isn't as good because the Steelers can no longer control the game with the pounding running game...

It all comes back to running the football, as always....and they cannot run.

I'd have to say Worthlessburger by a slim margin. Vick has some horrible recievers to throw to.

Agree.

It's just too tough to make a decision right now - but they both could easily be replaced - I think Ben could find himself on the bench some time next season and will be remembered for making that tackle and nothing else - I just don't think the Falcons will admit it to themselves that they have no chance with Vick.

4 weeks ago Vick was on top...he always comes back down though.

Journeyman · Nov 26, 2006

hno: Ben just got sacked and fumbled again, 9 sacks today.

absolutlely dante....how short-sighted of a world we live in. these same people would have fired cowher after the back to back non-playoff seasons

jeckll · Nov 26, 2006

Did anybody see those fucking drops today? Roddy White dropped a sure TD that would have tied the game and put the Falcons in a spot to win...do agree Vick is overrated but get the guy some receivers who will CATCH the ball!

Fishhead · Nov 26, 2006

VICK

However, BIG BEN is just horrible right now...........why the fuck isnt BATCH playing?

buzzerbeater9 · Nov 26, 2006

84 yards passing on the Saints........maybe he can be a WR or a kick returner, but QB?!!!!! get out of here

At least Ben gains yards, but he too is bad. Not close to how bad Vick is though. Matt Shaub time!

Most over rated title goes to Big Ben by a mile !
Reason why ? Nobody ever really rated Vick very high. He's a good runner but a horrible QB. There were those that were ready to induct Big Ben into the Hall of Fame.

Fairly good point.

Journeyman · Nov 26, 2006

Ben was just a piece to a very large puzzle that had the Steelers on a roll the past two seasons, like most QB's you're only as good as your running game...John Elway was one of the few exceptions, he literally carried teams without any running game for a decade.

Ben got way too much credit for the Steelers success and is getting way too much credit for the Steelers problems now....similar to Brett Favre last season.

Joe Montana wouldn't be faring any better with this pass protection and running game.
