Before starting this article, I would like to state that I am not biased towards either quarterback.  I am not going to state my opinion that is for you, the reader, to do.

After Peyton Manning lost Super Bowl XLIV, many questions arose to whether Ben Roethlisberger is the better quarterback.  In order to settle this argument, the stats will be broken down to give an idea as to who is better, Manning or Roethlisberger.

To be fair, we will be breaking down the stats for the first six years of their careers.
