Vote: Ben Roethlisberger or Matt Hasselbeck?


The Seattle Seahawks have the league MVP playing running back, and it's still not clear they have the edge at the position against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XL. With contrasts like a workhorse in Shaun Alexander and the two-headed attack of Jerome Bettis and Willie Parker, it's going to be a fun two weeks of debate.

The soon-to-be champs will have to work together as one seamless group on the field in Detroit, but each part of that group doing its job better than its counterpart is part of that equation. So will Matt Hasselbeck outplay Ben Roethlisberger? Do Troy Polamalu and Chris Hope give the Steelers the edge at safety? And how about the offensive lines that open the holes for the running backs?

Which team do you think has the edge at each position, SportsNation?
