Steelers' Roethlisberger voted 26th in NFL Top 100

Ben Roethlisberger's best statistical season ever was only enough to move him up five spots on the NFL Network's countdown of the top 100 players in the league. 

The Steelers quarterback settled in at No. 26, after completing 67.1 percent of his passes for 4,952 yards and 32 touchdowns with nine interceptions.  Roethlisberger is the seventh QB listed so far, ahead of Drew Brees, Tony Romo, Philip Rivers, Cam Newton, Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco. 

He is the second Steeler to make the list after center Maurkice Pouncey came in at 83. Presumably Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell will join them when the rest of the top 20 is revealed in the upcoming weeks.
