Ok, I put my money where my mouth is. Drafted Roethlisberger with only Brady, P. Manning, Rodgers, Brees and Vick off the board. Kolb as the backup for that game that Roethlisbeerger misses for a broken thumb (I expect it now). We'll see how his plays out.

Big Ben gets the job done, but he doesn't put up great stats. Stats win fantasy football.

Just traded a couple of Chargers runningbacks for Brady and Branch. Then sent Roethlisberger out for Stephan Jackson. I was confident in Ben, but some idiot drafted Brees and Brady in our league, so he was panicked when he realized what he did. I'll take it.

Why are people putting Sanchez on any list that denotes the top 15 QB's in the league? The guy has a worse QB rating than Alex Smith and you don't see his name sniffing any lists. Pretty much everyone puts the guy up there and he's simply not proven anything.

Stats can be misleading. Sanchez isn't a top-tier quarterback, but two Conference championship games in two years is hard to deny. I understand he isn't a primary reason that the Jets have been good, but he has yet to crash the Ferrari.

Eli better hope he doesnt throw another 31 TDs to 25 INTs this year, main reason I didn't pick him up on my fantasy team. Instead i have Flacco with Sanchez as backup.

That's reasonable. Question is, if he isn't a top 5 pick with his performances to date are the Jets looking for another QB soon? Further, is he respected is a middle of the road QB as opposed to a lower 6-7 where he should be if he isn't in New York?

Ah, very good point. I think he has this season and next season to prove himself. If not, they'll move on.

I'm not sure that it's a top 6-7 QB needed, but top 10, for sure.

what happends if Colts/Dolphins go winless? or if there becomes a 3 way tie for last place. Is it a lottery type drawing?

Eli Manning Will Go Down in History

As a better, more clutch QB than Tom Brady.

Truth.

I can't believe it, but he belongs in the discussion with the greats of the game.

One of the best to ever play.
