No doubt. Peyton Manning gets that ball out quick enough that it makes his offensive line look a lot better than it really is. Put Roethisberger behind that group and Colt fans would lament how their QB is always taking hits. No QB in the NFL gets through his reads and gets that ball out quicker than Manning does. He's also masterful in getting his guys into favorable matchups using different formations and stuff like that.
