Ben Roethlisberger > both

As much as I <3 Roy Williams, "Big Ben" should easily be the offensive rookie of the year.

Pittsburgh has some pretty good receivers, probably making him look better than he actually is.

True, but he's making great reads, and he avoids pressure really good. Even without the great receivers, he's making good plays before he gets rid of the ball. He's a pretty big guy too :mad:

Yeah, I'm just looking for something agaisnt him though. :o

Also, Roy Williams can still be the NFC rookie of the year.

Yea, even though I think Big Ben will eventually end up being the best out of this bunch, you can't really say that for sure now. I mean, Rivers wasn't even camp at all, and Manning hasn't been given a chance to play yet. If Maddox wasn't hurt then you'd be laughing at all of them because Roy Williams would be the "run away" canidate for Offensive Rookie of the Year. Wait to see what happens when Manning or Rivers catches a break like Rothlisberger, and then see what happens

There's an Offensive Rookie, and a Defensive Rookie of the Year. I don't think they break it down, and give one offensive player, and one defensive player from both conferences it though. I think theres just one offensive/defensive rookie of the year throughout the entire league, it would be kinda ridiculous if they were giving out 4 rookie awards.

I can't stand Rivers, I know his father (coach at our school). Kid has an ego the size of a mountain.

You can't even say that given the fact that the other two haven't played for their teams yet in a regular season game.

I don't know, I think the whole not playing at all yet 7 weeks into the season does more to hurt their chances of being RotY than it does to help it. Maybe that's just me though.


And yeah, Clayton's looking good too. So is Steven Jackson. Roethlisberger is playing hotttt though :mad:

Ben definitely is playing spectacular. RotY in my opinion as well.

You definitely can't consider Eli or Phillip RotY canadates but you can't really say they are worse or better than Ben. :-\

I was very surprised and quite impressed when I found out that the Steelers were 4-1. I like Rothlesburger in the Steeler uni, but for some reason everybody on Around the Horn sold him. We'll see I guess.

Oh yea, Rookie of the Year you are right about that, I wasn't really talking about that. I was talking about more important things, like down the road or whatever.

Rivers and Manning def. will not be winning Rookie of the Year, but I don't think either of their teams where really planning for that anyways.

Rivers is the man. I thought his dad coached in 'Bama? :?:

As probably the biggest (Or at least one of the biggest, I'm not sure how many Stillers fans there are here) Steelers fan at the board (and anyone who knows me at TXF or the former TM boards can confirm I'm no bandwagon guy), I am seriously hoping Big Ben Ruthless wins the rookie of the year, but the game against the Patsies will show how well we do this year....which may not be a good thing.
