| Player | YDS | RTG | TD | INT | COMP % | GAMES |
| QB 1: | 2673 | 91.0 | 16 | 9 | 65.4 | 13 |

Who are these two QB's? Why they're former MAC all-stars, Chad Pennington (QB1) and Ben Roethlisberger (QB2)! Their numbers are quite close but for some reason Pennington is a dog while Roethlisberger is the next big thing. I guess the difference is in the yards per attempt -- 7.22 for Pennington and 8.89 for Roethlesberger. But overall, very similar numbers. If the Jets want to have any shot at winning, they need to take an early lead and force Roethlisberger to throw the ball. He has not had more than 25 passing attempts in any game.

Yes, but I feel like that's comparing winning percentage of two pitchers with similar numbers in MLB. If the two QB's switched teams would their numbers be that much better? Are the individual numbers an accurate way to evaluate the QB's?
If we go with the media, then the individual numbers aren't an accurate way. But on the other hand, we celebrate individual statistics. Dan Marino's a hall of famer but never won a Super Bowl. Mark Rypien has won a Super Bowl. Who was better? Maybe it's not absolute. But I think this QB analysis is fair -- Roethlisberger has been overhyped.
