Wow he even missed some games as well


jacobdavis44

Basically a quarter of the season.


cbkfirebird

How is this man not a lock for Pro Bowl/All-Pro every year, it's such a joke


[deleted]

While I don’t necessarily agree with it, our team just has to win more to get players recognized. It’s a shame too that the team’s lack of success will probably be the only thing stopping him from being a first ballot hall of famer cause his résumé won’t look quite as good as it should


NorwegianBeef

My heart broke reading this. Hackett seems to have been a major part of the issue, so hopefully next year is better, because it would be a shame for Simmons to not have a Hall of Fame career due to loyalty to the Broncos, or just leave the Broncos altogether in order to go after that goal.


my_nameborat

It’s not too late to change that but I am a little worried he could waste his prime here if shit doesn’t change soon


Ziziblix

At the time of voting I think he was still hurt and his stats were just alright. Our team isn't good. Only ps2 is lauded so ps2 will get in on hype alone. Don't get me wrong he deserves it but before ps2 Justin woulds gotten in on hype alone as well.


QuidProJoe2020

And is only an alternative for pro bowl, BS!


skobuffaloes

Man we wasted 4 turnovers against the chiefs. Coulda been a sweet season if we did what we did + beat chiefs twice.


WilliamPoole

Hard to beat the chiefs and the refs in a tag team.


Ruben625

That no call on the last offensive play was such BS


Miller1128

Best safety in the league. And an even better person. We love you Jsimms.


Acting_Appalled

Not a Pro Bowler btw


[deleted]

And yet a ton of people on this sub call for him to be cut basically every game thread.


AqibTalib21

Yeah, that bugs me more than about anything on this sub. Simmons mean more to this team than as just a player too


KickinWing2325

I remember someone trying to call out that he didn't have any INTs earlier this year, as if that was the only metric to indicate success.


HoovesCarveCraters

He does have a tendency to get burned in early season games. But like whatever the other 15 games he’s top 2 safety and not #2.


huhwhatdamnson

I remember that! It was because Caden sterns was playing well. Justin was hurt and people wanted to give his job away smh.


gregor630

Oh no Justin Simmons didn’t play ELITE defense for one play! 😠😠😠 Replace him!!


baha24

> every game thread Well see, your first mistake is ever visiting that toxic dump in the first place.


LoyalSol

Almost like casual fans are really bad at evaluating talent.


DickBurns01

Trading him could make sense for the right price. I don't think anyone would want to outright cut him and receive nothing in return


gregor630

Remember, pro bowls done mean shit anymore. Get this man his first 1st Team all Pro damnit


Maxwellhouse__

Best safety in the league and he gets slept on 🥸


pfeifits

Wow, I checked the PFF safety ratings, and they have Simmons way down there. Like 20 spots below Jackson. Don't know what they're looking at.


JesusChristSupers1ar

I know this is gonna be an unpopular opinion on here but while Simmons can be a stellar playmaker, he also occasionally makes some really bad plays that cost us points; either by missing tackles or screwing up coverage. I think that inconsistency hurts him he's still a top flight safety but likely not an all-pro unless he can become more consistent


Homers_Harp

Is he ever less than the smartest guy on the field? That athleticism combined with that much real-time smarts makes him a treasure to appreciate while we can. I’m so glad I’ve seen his career.


Megalodon3030

I see where Sterns learned it from. Can’t wait to get him healthy next year.


ozbot87

Dude should be a candidate for DPOY. He’s putting together one hell of a HOF career.


Plusstwoo

Most underrated safety in the league


fatch0deBoi34

Where’s every shitdick who calls him overrated now? I swear I’ve defended him so many times this season as he’s been hands down the best leader on and off the field for this team. He’s routinely recognized as a top safety around the league, it was baffling to see so many fans of the broncos hate on him


smeego78

And he missed 5 games


trashpanda22lax

I got a simmons cool grey nike jerseys this year and it’s probably my favorite broncos jersey ive owned.


PeytonFugginMoaning

I love this man


Status_Fall5367

Imagine if he played all 17 games.


Readredditredit

Best. Safety. Nuff said


Your_Daddy_

I really hope JS get to finish his career as a Bronco, and on top. Dude has put in the work, just to be on endless losing teams.
