Former Steelers wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders joined the NFL Network and was asked to compare his former quarterback, Ben Roethlisberger with his current quarterback, Peyton Manning in some non-football related categories.
Sanders took a bit of heat last season when he compared the two quarterbacks and may have taken some shots at his former QB but this time the questions were much lighter in nature. He said that Peyton would be quicker to pick up the tab for an expensive dinner but he also has the “Dad Body” between the two.
We all remember seeing the video of Peyton getting down to some Rocky Top during last year’s training camp so naturally Sanders was asked who the better dancer is between the two and Ben wins in a landslide, primarily because Sanders hasn’t seen him dance. Sanders wasn’t asked but I’d bet Peyton makes a better chicken parm than Ben does too.
