Peko was pretty good at one point. I don't think Zimmer is the kind of guy that's going to go out of his way to trash a former player of his, especially one that's respected as Peko. I'm not saying that Zimmer is just blatantly lying, but he is probably giving Peko the benefit of the doubt even after a rough 2013 outing. His 2014 was much worse though, when was the Zimmer quote from? I honestly don't know.

Peko isn't the absolute worst NT in the universe, but he has declined quite a bit from where he was previously. He hasn't been very good lately, but hey, if he can play like he did on Sunday every single game, I think we would all be thrilled! It's not that we aren't rooting for him, it's just that a lot of us have lost faith in his ability after watching this team over the last few seasons and seeing him getting pushed around more often than he would have in previous years.

Quote was from last year. I agree that Zim would not go out of his way to trash a player, he just would not bring them up in the first place. Peko may not be as good as he was when he was younger, but he is still a lot better than people give him credit for. The professional coaches who make their livings in football at the highest level know this. All the rest is internet noise.
