Interesting question... to be honest, the most talented one is maybe Rivers, but he's also the one I would pick last given the choice.

He'll put up numbers and look great at times... while Ben looks aweful at times. But Ben's a winner, while Rivers is a whiner.

Manning : hard to tell what will happen... leads team to SB42 win, but was he the reason ? or was it the big D ? If he just continues current pace, he'll be forever remembered for one season.

My prediction in 2004 was that Roethlisberger was going to be the best of that bunch and it looks like I was right.

I voted for Ben ... he has a calm demeanor out there. While not pretty he can be very effective and accurate. He would not have been as successfull had the Cardinals delayed one rusher ... but he pulled it off last night and he deserves the ring.

No comparison its Ben but Rivers does well with what he has to work with he has really been coming around the last couple years (throwing a lot more accurate and the deep ball to jackson).

Depends on how you define best. From a stats and success standpoint, hands down you'd have to say Ben. But Rivers might be the most talented, albeit stuck in an organization that clearly has management issues with players that affect team chemistry and continuity. Manning? I'm writing off last year's championship as a one off. I don't see him carrying a team on his back. Ever.

Same here. I liked Roethlisberger the best coming out of college. Eli sucks. I mean, he's an average, or decent NFL QB, but he's so overhyped being a Manning.
