...is quietly on pace for 4704 passing yards and 26 TDs.

He has always been a good NFL QB, but it looks like he has finally arrived as an elite FF player. He's an every week must-start.

He also has two rushing TDs for whatever that's worth.

The biggest surprise to me is Ben's 73.8% completion rate.

O-Line looks like they are protecting better. Add soft schedule and Ben should be solid.

He's been very consistent to date, too. 220+ yards in every game. 65+% comp% in every game. 2+ TDs in 4 out of 5 games (1 in the fifth). 8.4+ YPA in 4 out of 5 games (6.3 in the fifth). Far and away the most important stat, though, is 30+ attempts in every game. For several years now Pittsburgh has used Ben to stake a lead, then used the ground game to salt it away. With the decline of the ground game, Pitt is trusting Ben more and more to salt it away. Even if the yardage comes back to earth (and it certainly will once the comp% returns to earth), the great thing about Ben is that he's one of the few QBs who is his team's primary *AND* secondary option in the red zone.

Not to mention, Chuck Norris is his fluffer.

(now do I bench Drew Brees for him...?)

His TD numbers should be a little better -- he's had three easy passes in the endzone dropped by Holmes, Sweed & Wallace.

With the emergance of Mendenhall and the wether getting colder, Ben's #'s might dip a bit. He'll still be good in fantasy. I wouldn't trade him for any QB in the league. You can keep Manning and Brady. Maybe I'm just a little biased.

Brady? Yes. However Peyton is playing like a man possessed right now.
