Former QB Starts Stringent Disagreement on Show After Controversial Positioning of Tom Brady Was Revealed
Follow Us
Former NFL quarterback Chris Simms and his take on the NFL GOAT Tom Brady was considered controversial by some fans. While Brady is entering his 23rd season and coming off a career-high passing yards season, Simms was not kind in his assessment. The former Buccaneers QB hosts one of the more intriguing football podcasts in “Unbuttoned,” and is not afraid of giving hot takes.
He also has a co-host on the show in former Iowa QB Paul Burmeister, who works with NBC Sports similar to Simms. Both Burmeister and Simms seem to differ upon the latter’s recent Top 40 QBs list.

The Iowa QB made the most of his opportunity to work with “Football Morning in America” and write a column as a guest. While talking about Simms’ ranking of Brady, Burmeister states, “Tom Brady at 8? I’d have him higher. His combination of conviction and talent still wins the play most times. Chris sees a deficiency when the pocket starts to collapse around Brady, and Chris feels Brady’s reaction at that moment is not as good as those ranked ahead of him.”
Does Chris Simms’ observation seem too harsh for Tom Brady?
While Burmeister admits Simms has a valid point, he still believes that Brady is a Top 5 NFL QB. The ability to make decisions under pressure and throw fastball still resembles his old dominant self. However, he adds that the ‘Unbuttoned‘ host is being too stingy in finding ways of ranking down Brady.

The observations from Simms appear too harsh and distant from Brady and his modus operandi as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB.

Simms believes that there are 7 more NFL QBs capable of delivering more under pressure than the 15-time Pro Bowler.
The start of a new NFL campaign will present the 7-time Super Bowl champion with another opportunity to prove why he still is a formidable player. Despite the injuries the franchise went through last season, Brady carried the team offensively in 2021. The chase for his 8th Super Bowl ring is well and truly on as the Buccaneers‘ fans hope to forget the bad memories of last season.
