Since there has been much speculation as to if Ben has actually had a better start as QB compared to Brady shows its not really that close - Tom has been better in most catagories
Of course this is a TEAM game and the stats below are just to divide the 2 players to see which one has had the better numbers so that people can clearly see the numbers are in reality quite apart
These stats are based on numbers for each player in their first 5 years in the league as starting QB (Brady only had 1 snap in 2000 so it is not in consideration)
- During his first 5 years Brady has not missed any game as starting QB playing in 78 regular season games while Roethlisberger did miss 7 games and played in just 71 regular season games,so stats may not be 100% fair but nevertheless here they are ....
THE FIRST 5 YEARS COMPARISON
Averaged out between all 5 years
TOM BRADY (2001-2005 Stats)
Comp % 62.0
Passing Yards 18,029
TD Passes 123
QB Record 58-20 (reg. season)
TD % 4.8
INTs 66
QB Rating 88.3
YPG Average 227.5
Yards Rushing 333
Post Season 10-1 w/3 SB Titles
BEN ROETHLISBERGER (2004-2008 Stats)
Comp % 62.4

INTs 69
QB Rating 89.4
YPG Average 208.0
Yards Rushing 616
Post Season 8-2 w/2 SB Titles
So as it appears by these individual stats Brady has been better in most stats but Ben not far behind although comparing these two can be misleading but interesting regardless
