Who is the better quarterback — Philip Rivers or Ben Roethlisberger?
It’s very close.
Let’s talk money.
In April, the Steelers gave Roethlisberger a two-year extension worth potentially $68 million.
Rivers is in his contract year, too. If he gets an extension, will it be similar to Big Ben’s deal?
“The Chargers couldn’t have been thrilled” with the Steelers’ commitment to Roethlisberger, writes former NFL agent Joel Corry of CBS Sports, while noting both AFC quarterbacks are forever linked because each went high in the 2004 draft.
Rivers has said he is comfortable to play this season under his current contract.
