Cameron Jordan doesn\'t believe that Ben Roethlisberger is among the top five quarterbacks of his generation.
The New Orleans Saints will host the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.
\"Is that true?\" Jordan responded when a reporter suggested that Roethlisberger might be a future Hall of Famer.
\"In this era? You\'d put him at like a top three of this era? You\'d put him in the top five of this era?\" he continued, before listing Drew Brees, Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers and Peyton Manning as top quarterbacks during Roethlisberger\'s 15-year career.
\"You\'re saying he\'s better than Philip Rivers, career-wise? So you\'re giving him the Super Bowl nod?\" Jordan said. \"You\'re putting him at No. 5? OK. ... I\'d honestly put Eli (Manning) before I\'d put Ben, but OK. Two Super Bowls -- if we\'re going by those numbers.\"
Jordan took to Twitter on Thursday night to clarify that he was only doubting Roethlisberger\'s credentials as a first-ballot Hall of Famer.
