Phil Simms (1979-1993)
There are two reasons they overstate the talent of Phil Simms when he was a quarterback. First, he has been doing well as a high-profile broadcaster. Second, he brought home two Super Bowls during his time in the league. He spent his whole career playing for the New York Giants, which turned him into an icon among the fans of the team. If he were playing in a smaller place, he would be nothing more than a starter with okay numbers. Simms threw for 199 touchdowns, which has landed him in the top 50. Even if this were the case, his career completion percentage of 55.4 is nothing to write home about.

Sam Bradford (2010-2018)
When he first joined the league, Sam Bradford set the record for rookie contracts. His deal paid him $78 million over six years. All in all, he earned over $129 million during his time in the NFL. He ended his career with a 34-48-1 record as a starter. We have to admit that he has an impressive passer rating and accuracy. Can you believe that failed to take any franchise to the playoffs? On top of that, he could barely finish a season with no injuries. We do not know about you, but his contract was way too high.
