Big Ben has never gotten the credit he deserves

Big Ben clinched another AFC North title with a ridiculous 500-yard passing performance against the Ravens, but even though he’s won multiple Super Bowls and put up massive stats over an absurdly long period of time, he’s been overshadowed at every point his career by other quarterbacks who with more national appeal.

Early in his career, Roethlisberger was overshadowed by Peyton Manning and Tom Brady, and now he’s taken a back seat to a new crop of young QB’s that have grabbed the spotlight.

Sure, he’s never hosted SNL, and doesn’t have massive endorsement deals, but his on-field body of work is as good as anyone not named Tom Brady, and deserves to be acknowledged.

 

Carson Wentz will need to learn to run less to realize his NFL potential

Today, Philly fans were devastated today when it was confirmed that MVP candidate Carson Wentz will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL suffered on a scramble against the Rams.

Wentz has dazzled fans with his Houdini-like escapability and knack for moving the chains with his legs in crucial spots, but Colin believes that Wentz will have to discipline himself to win almost exclusively from the pocket to fulfill his full NFL potential and endure over time.

 

Guests:

Michael Vick – Fox NFL Analyst is in-studio to discuss the injury hazards for mobile quarterbacks, and why he wouldn’t change his style despite the injury risk.

Peter King – Founder and Editor-in-Chief of the MMQB is in-studio to discuss the impact of Carson Wentz’s season ending injury on the NFC race; how Sean McVay has transformed the Rams; and if Big Ben has been overlooked in the discussion of top NFL QB’s.

Tony Gonzalez – FS1 Analyst and former All-Pro tight end is in-studio to talk the chaos at the end of Jags/Seahawks; the time he got pelted with batteries in the Black Hole; and why he thinks the Eagles can still make a playoff run without Carson Wentz

Rob Ryan – Fox NFl analyst and former NFL defensive coordinator discusses the impact of the loss of Ryan Shazier on the Pittsburgh defense; and how he had success against Big Ben.
