Hmm ... leave it to Forbes to strictly go by comeback success rate to determine clutchness by quarterbacks in the NFL.

Lo and behold ... Big Ben is #2 behind Tom Brady.

4	Moral of the story? Suck enough for 3 quarters to be losing, but have a good enough defense to get the ball back 3 times in the last 12 mins.

1	It doesn't matter where the rest of the world ranks Big Ben...........................As long as he continues to perform the way he has been since he became the starting QB for the Steelers. They could rank him the worst in the league and that would be fine with me.

This thinking isn't always true if you are just saying the QB sucks for 3 quarters but plays well in the 4th to win it. The Game could be a shootout where the defense is allowing the other team to run up and down the field and the QB leads a game winning drive for a 41-38 win. Could even be a tight game where your team gives up some huge special teams plays for touchdowns or great field position (i.e. punt or kick returns, blocked FG or punts). Just saying..there are a lot of ways to get behind in a football game. It's not always the QB's fault.

0	I dunno... if you are a QB that can go out and put enough TD's on the board in the first half that the opponent can't come back, that's pretty clutch too. If the only component is come from behind wins, that's very misleading.
