I don't believe there was a soul out there who thought that taking you with the first overall pick two drafts ago was the right move. The fans of your own team that drafted you were shouting "overrated" when your official draft announcement was made. How could the Houston Texans select you, and pass up on the best college football player since "stabbin" O.J. Simpson himself? If you saw any highlights of last night's game against the Broncos or have been following Mario this season at all, you can finally see where the Texans' management was coming from.

Roethlisberger is clearly the third best QB in the AFC, possibly in the NFL, and in time could rise to the Brady-Favre-Manning level, especially if the Rooney's shell out some cash for a few linemen who can block, and another wide receiver who can catch. Harrison is making good on the teams decision to let Joey Porter walk. He's been somewhat quiet lately, but then again so has the defense as a whole.
