Ben's has generally been considered to be having one of his best seasons and before the injury was talked about as a potential MVP candidate.
Here is his basic stat line, and it's a pretty darn good one:
209/316, 66.1%, 2287 yards, 7.2 ypa, 17 TD, 4 INT, 100.0 QB Rating
now look at RGIII:
218/325, 67.1%, 2660 yards, 8.2 ypa, 17 TD, 4 INT, 104.4 QB Rating
RGIII has had 3 more games than Ben to put up the numbers, but the amount of attempts are essentially the same. Ben has been very good, RGIII has been incredible considering he is a rookie known more so for being athletic than a passer.
I don't really have a point with this post, just that I am thoroughly impressed with what Ben does for the Steelers, and amazed by what RGIII has been able to do.
