[QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 3603400, member: 652"]
Simms was the 2nd best QB in the NFC in the 1980s.
Behind Montana.

Washington didn’t have one QB,
Philly didn’t settle till Randall Cunningham in the late 80’s, 
Phoenix had nobody,
Dallas didn’t get Aikman till 1988.
Minnesota switched QBs every year.
Green Bay was garbage
Chicago had McMahon and Simms was better
Detroit didn’t have a good QB
Tampa had Testaverde who sucked
New Orleans didn’t have a good QB
LA Rams had no elite QB
Atlanta didn’t have a QB
San Francisco had Montana.

Phil Simms was the second best QB in the NFC in the 1980s.

The AFC had Elway, Marino, Moon and when he came from USFL Jim Kelly.

Simms I believe was held back by his team and the rules being more defensive friendly.
I remember his 1993 season carrying Dan Reeves. That week 17 game with Dallas basically swung a SB.
Winner of that game got HFA and while Dallas was probably better the game in Jersey should have gone NYG way. 
Reeves called a conservative game and Emmitt Smith swung that game.
Simms kept the Giants in it.
