Ben Roethlisberger says Tom Brady atop NFL's QB hierarchy

PITTSBURGH -- Ben Roethlisberger isn't giving himself the top spot in the NFL's quarterback hierarchy.
That spot belongs to New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who starts the season on a four-game suspension over Deflategate.
Roethlisberger served a four-game suspension of his own in 2010 for violation of the league's personal conduct policy, but when asked what advice he'd give Brady for coping with his absence, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback said Brady "doesn't need any advice from anybody."
"Tom's the greatest in the world, and I mean that," Roethlisberger said.
Roethlisberger's comment comes on the heels of former Steelers quarterback Terry Bradshaw saying he'd take Big Ben "ahead of Brady for sure and anybody else."
