While people have heaped praise upon him simply for his win-loss record, I think his abilities might be somewhat underrated.

what exactly is overrated about him?

He doesn't show up on anyone's list for best QB in the NFL. He's a solid quarterback that does what he needs to do in his enviroment to win games. He is a perfect match for the steelers, has stellar stats, and I have no evidence to the fact that he is over rated.

The fact that he does nothing special, but as we all know "OMG he is 17-2 as a starter. 17-2!!!"

Who cares. An average quarterback can win 17 games behind a great defense and an offense that requires you to hand the ball off and throw short passes.

sure, people mention his record, but I have never heard or seen any (real) sports fan go nuts over him as you seem to think everyone does (and I live in western PA). Everyone here is pretty well adjusted to the fact that he runs our offense very well, but, at least right now, hasn't done much to be compared to Joe or Dan (A couple other Pittsburgh favorites)

And just a point, I would consider Tommy Maddox an "average" quarterback.. look how he handled it..
