Pretty good research. Essentially the writer looks at wins, qb rating, TDs, playoffs, etc in their first 7 seasons and compares the two.

Nearly all the numbers point to highly comparable careers through seven seasons. Yet, Roethlisberger hasn't received nearly the same amount of attention that Brady did -- at least not positive attention, that is.
Yet, this much is hard to argue: If the Steelers win on Sunday, Roethlisberger will be right where Brady was four years ago.
The better quarterback? Brady's historic numbers in the past four seasons leave no doubt about that.
Brady has lost five of his last nine postseason games, including three in a row. Because of that, Sunday could have even greater meaning.
A distinction that seemed Brady's for life -- the best postseason quarterback of this generation might actually be up for grabs.
With his recent struggles, he's left that door open.
