Ben is easily number 1 on this list, only brady was more clutch. Only manning and Brady were better for longer.

People are smoking something real good to think Ben Rapistberger belongs as a 1st ballot HOF. If that's the case, we may as well have OJ Simpson's bust put back.

Sorry, Big Ben is not a first ballot Hall Of Famer. He never made an All-Pro team and didn't win MVP in either Super Bowl he was in. Was at best the 5th best QB of his era after Brady, Manning, Brees, and Rodgers.
