It's a silly argument because those guys throw a lot more and they throw deep a lot more, which requires more time in the pocket.
I like that Cassel has improved his ability to get rid of the ball. But let's not pretend that the run-heavy, screen-heavy offense that doesn't throw deep a lot doesn't have a lot to do with this.
And yes, Big Ben takes a lot of sacks. That's just the way he plays the game. As does Rodgers. But they more than compensate.
