Roethlisberger Looking to Continue the Climb Among NFL Greats

If you’re around long enough, you’re bound to find your way among the greats of the game you play. Ben Roethlisberger is in exactly that position as the 2018 NFL season approaches. While he probably needs to do no more to solidify his position as a future Hall of Fame player, rising a few spot on the respective ladders of quarterback greatness won’t hurt.

In terms of passing yards, Big Ben currently stands in eighth with 51,065 yards. He will pass his idol John Elway with just 410 more passing yards and then will be in a back and forth contest with fellow 2004 draftee Eli Manning who currently sits another 500 or so yards ahead of him.
