He wins games, that's what he does. He might not be great statistically, but like Brady, he finds a way to manage the game well enough and win consistently. Keep in mind he's only in his 2nd year too. I really thought he was the most overrated player in the NFL last year, but after watching him this year I have a lot of respect for him and what he does for that team.

No.

He's not as stellar of an athelete as say - Vick, but he manages his team better, and performs better all around. Tom Brady isn't a stellar athelete, but he gets the job done as well as anybody out there.

Vick gets over-hyped because of his atheleticism, and is over-rated in the aspect that he doesn't really get the job done. Rothlisberger gets over-hyped because he gets the job done as well as anybody, and is probably over-rated as an athelete. Neither are bad, or even over-rated, QB's

Vick has become overratedness is overrated. It has become a fact that he is so overrated that he is underrated if that makes any sense at all. The fact is he wins games, and a lot of other qb's can't. As for the YPC stat I doubt Joe Montana ran 5-10 times a game. Guys like him have high YPC because they only ran when the field is wide open.

YPC = Yards per completion in this case. (I think)

Let's put it this way; I would rather have an "overrated" QB like Big Ben and Vick who find ways for their teams to win on a consistant basis instead of an underrated QB who doesn't manage his team as well. Call me crazy but I like winning and will take any QB who can do that for my team a lot. By those standards I don't think those two are overrated. Stats aren't everything except in fantasy football [which consequently doesn't translate to real wins].

Yet another guy who undervalues minor, minor things like winning and playoffs....

So, Pennington, Vick, and Roethilsberger are all overrated, right? Yet in general all three guys have led their teams to the playoffs, even won some playoff games. Oh, I almost forgot Brady. He's definitely overrated. At least you guys are consistent...

I honestly don't think either Pennington or Roeth are overrated. Roeth's not considered anything special, and people forget how good Pennington once was (he was always being compared to Joe Montana before his injury).
