Parcells: Roethlisberger resembling Marino

From this week's love in the USAToday, here is Sunday's opposing coach on our new QB:

"He is the best prospect I've seen in the last 10 to 15 years," Dallas coach Bill Parcells said Wednesday in a conference call in advance of Sunday's game against the visiting Steelers in what promises to be Roethlisberger's toughest test by far.

"I have not seen anybody come into the league like that," said Parcells. "The only guy that I can say came in and in the first year started playing like he's been playing, is Dan Marino."

Coaches typically flatter the opposing players, but that's beyond the range of typical flattery.
