Roethlisberger definitely fell into a great situation for a rookie QB. Two solid RB's, a very good WR group and a quality coaching staff.
That being said he's having a heck of a rookie campaign, if he keeps this up he'll go down as the most impressive rookie QB in the history of the game. He shows remarkable poise for a young QB, and he's completing 69% of his throws! That's just insane.
It's way too early to write off guys like Manning and Rivers though. Who knows what the future could hold, they could both surpass Roethlisberger.
