Roethlisberger or Rodgers, Which would you take?

              Two Quarterbacks who have the ability to make a play when it looks like the play is over, but which one would you rather have.

              Both are first round draft picks, Ben in 2004, Rodgers in 2005. They both can move their feet when needed too, Rodgers is quicker, and Ben is stronger when escaping the pocket.

              Rodgers has amazing career regular season numbers, as he is the NFL all time leader in passer rating, (98.4), during the regular season. However, as he waited for Farve to retire, he lost a couple of years and won his first postseason game this year against Philadelphia.

              On the other hand, Ben does not have the flashiest numbers when it comes to regular season statistics, but he is 2 for 2 when it comes to Superbowl victories. He won in his second year, which made him the youngest QB to win a Superbowl, at 23.

             Both players have a knack of performing well under pressure and creating game winning drives. The game maybe decided depending on which Quarterback has the ball last, but which guy  would I take? The one who has 2 rings and a chip on his shoulder after sexual assault charges got him suspended for the first 4 games of the regular season.
