Sims can stop the run just as good as Peko, especially now that Peko is starting to fall off, Sims has always been better at penetrating gaps than Peko, especially more now that Peko is starting to fall off, Sims is younger and more athletic than Peko, Sims is not a one trick pony that is falling off, Sims can make splash plays something Peko has never really done etc.
Seriously, the only thing that Peko has on Sims is that he has shown he can stay healthy and Sims even shown that he could do that last season. We have been having this argument for years and i kind of understood the Peko backers claims because he could stay healthy which
Sims hadn't done and Peko WAS good at stopping the run. These arguments are starting to run dry...
If Sims is better than Peko then why can't he make more tackles or get more sacks? How exactly does he stop the run better without making tackles? Does he have some super power where he can slow down runners without touching them?
And what exactly do you mean by "splash plays"? In 7 NFL season Sims has 7 sacks, 19 stuffs, 1 forced fumble, and zero fumbles recovered. In 9 seasons Peko has 13.5 sacks, 27 stuffs, 3 FF, and 3 FR.
