NFL - Big Ben vs Tom Brady (who is better looking?)

Was watching an NFL films show yesterday and they were discussing the salaries of quarterbacks and their looks. They determined that salaries were more if the player was better looking. They tried to quantify how good looking a guy is based on the symmetry of his face. Based on symmetry alone, they said Big Ben is more handsome than Tom Brady.

Hold it...while I laugh a little bit. Now, I LOVE the STEELERS, but I'm sorry..... Big Ben is not good looking.

Leave your favorite team out of the equation and tell me which one you find more attractive. :)

    I am a die hard Steelers and Bears Fan, and I must say Jay Cutler and Big Big are two of the most unattractive QB's in the NFL. I LOATHE the Patriots but Tom Brady is easy on the eyes.

    We all know who the best looking QB of all time is. Terry Bradshaw!

    Tom Brady is too much of a pretty boy for my tastes. I'll take Ben's rough edges any day over Tom's diva tendencies.

    I love the Steelers too, but Ben looks like a scuz. Brady is just as ugly. If I HAD to chose, I'd take Ben though. He can at least take a hit and keep going where as Brady is a freakin whiny *kitten* B****.

    We all know I'm a big Steeler fan. But Ben is a hideous monster of a human being. Looks and personality.

    But he's a strong quarterback and that's all I really care about when I watch football.

    Tom Brady is a very attractive man, too attractive. He's almost pretty, like a woman. It makes it more fun to watch him get sacked.

    I'll take Ben as QB over Brady any day.

    Gotta go with Ben myself. No real reason why other than as a Steeler fan I guess I watch him the most! Hines Ward over him though, and Troy Polamalu!

    If we're basing our appraisal solely on looks, unfortunately, I'd have to say Brady (although I can't stand the guy!)...

    Ben is somewhat of an eyesore, but he's talented! lol

    Ooooh, Troy! Yeah, he's a hottie! And what about Jason Taylor? YUM!

    Hmm well lets weigh this one out shall we?

    Ben - Rapes women, but hey that's cool because when you're rich you can just buy yourself out of **** and soulless America will love you all the same. #Kobe,#Ray Lewis,#Henderson

    Tom - Pompous cry baby...but he's got a hot *kitten* wife, piles of cash, and plenty of championships to thwart all the naysayers.

    Final thought - Big Ben is like an ugly Will Farrel without the humor.

    Edge - Brady.

    Die hard Steeler fan since birth...lol....and don't get me wrong, I like Big Ben. But the guy is not good looking. I'm sure his bank account does help to make him more attractive though...lol I DO NOT like Tom Brady!! I think he acts like a princess on the field and I do NOT think he's the least bit attractive.

    Anywhoo, GO STEELERS!!!!

    -Best looking QB atm is Tim Tebow and I am NOT a Gators fan, but the boy is HOT. Also, as bad as I hate to admit this, Aaron Rogers is pretty nice to look at. As long as he's not beating my team that is.

    I am a HUGE Patriots fan , However, I don't find Tom Brady attractive. I don't really seem to find any of the quarterbacks great looking but I did find this list "old" list after searching for someone I thought was decent. I found a couple of these guys good looking http://bleacherreport.com/articles/232830-nfl-top-10-the-leagues-most-attractive-quarterbacks .

    Aaron Rodgers had good symmetry according to the report. :)

    Please hold while I barf in my month.... Tom is. BUT he is such a *kitten*. With that being said, if I was single I would rather date Ben.

    I live near the 'burgh :)

    I asked my wife. She replied, "Brady or Hamburger? OMG! They all stupid? Hamburger look like a criminal! Tom Brady is Tom Brady: very handsome!"

    As a QB, Big Ben pisses me off as often as he makes me happy, but there is no arguing with the two rings and the 3rd appearance: he can get it done.

    Brady as a QB...well, I can't be objective since he's a scUM graduate from TSUN and that ol' Buckeye loathing will not allow it.

    I will say that if you hit Tom in the mouth his effectiveness is wildly diminished. Ben on the other hand gets hit, spits out teeth, draws up a play on the turf in his own blood and slings a TD bomb...or an interception...or gets sacked after standing in the backfield for roughly 2 hours.

    LOL. Love it. And your wife is a smart lady. If you looked at the pic they posted of Brady it isn't all that either...

    Nope. Tom Brady is one good looking man. May be dumb as a door knob, but he's hot.

    Being objective and not relating talent or team to the equation, here are the bottom and top five most attractive NFL quarterbacks. I've tried to combine natural looks and personal style into my ranking.

    I've only used 2011 NFL starting quarterbacks in this list:
    32. Kyle Orton, Denver Broncos/Kansas City Chiefs - If you combined Fred Flintstone, a basset hound, and a mediocre NFL quarterback, this would be the result. Will almost always be seen in tee-shirt and looks like the kind of guy who would have food stains on his clothes.
    orton0301.jpg
    31. Blaine Gabbert, Jacksonville Jaguars - Looks as uncoordinated structurally as he does on the football field. Kind of looks like Biff Tannen.
    30. Josh McCown, Chicago Bears - Played due to Jay Cutler's injury. Has the least-"put-together" look of any NFL quarterback.
    29. Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers - Looks like Droopy Dog
    28. T.J. Yates, Houston Texans - Being Average in Every Way Makes You Below Average
    ...
    5. Jason Campbell, Oakland Raiders (2011), Chicago Bears (2012) - No longer the starter due to an injury. Always has well-defined facial hair.
    4. Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons - Good facial structure but always looks sunburned.
    3. Matt Stafford, Detroit Lions - If that "Southern Boy" look appeals to you then this may be your guy. Will almost always be seen wearing a baseball cap.
    2. Cam Newton, Carolina Panthers - Electric [and marketable] style. Hated him at Auburn and honestly didn't think he'd translate to a number one pick talent.
    cam-newton-rookie-auburn-apjpg-20109dc7ee8d98dd.jpg
    1. Tom Brady, New England Patriots - Style and substance. May be a total rod as a person, but as long as he's sporting those Dolce & Gabbana suits and has Gisele on an arm he'll be okay.

    By the way, I'm a New York Giants fan and I'll take the beta male with two Super Bowl victories over any quarterback on any list right now.

    I can't take Tom Brady at all. I don't think he is good looking but I don't find Ben good looking either.

    I am going with Troy Aikman. I have had a crush on him for years~~~~~~:heart:
