There are some overlooked truths about the four superb quarterbacks left chasing a Super Bowl title:
- Tom Brady's career AFC championship game stats hardly should scare an opposing defense, nor should his deep-throw efficiency in the playoffs.
- Ben Roethlisberger becomes rather ordinary when being blitzed.
- Aaron Rodgers is hardly the king of the fourth-quarterback comeback, no matter his recent Hail Mary completions and a certain final-seconds, throw-on-the-run play.
- Matt Ryan produces interceptions nearly as often as TDs when trailing late.
