Per ESPN, Simmons has 3 sacks and 1 run stuff. No way anybody who isn't a Titans/Miss State fan is picking him over dudes like Buckner and Chris Jones.
For him to get Pro Bowls in the future, we need to be dominant as a team unit and probably have someone get big sack numbers (so Simmons gets more credit as a disruptor).

If Tannehill played for NE they would be in the play-off hunt.
And they would be talking about him even more
"Robbed" is a bit strong.
Mahomes and Josh Allen were locks. Watson has just as much of a case to be made as Tannehill.
It's not a participation trophy. Not everyone gets selected.

Ryan Tannehill is leading the highest scoring offense in the league and ranks top 5 in TDs, YPA, passer rating, QBR, *deep breath*, 4th qtr comebacks, game winning drives, DYAR, CPOE, DVOA. He’s also avoiding sacks and interceptions at an elite rate. If that ain’t a Pro Bowler...
And then you look at Watson's stats and realize he has more yards, a higher completion %, a higher YPA, a higher passer rating, and the same number of game-winning drives with a much worse supporting cast.
They're both deserving, but there are only three spots. "Robbed" is an overstatement.

One is doing so on a "Run Heavy" Offensive team the other one is doing so on a "Pass Oriented" Offensive team.
I'm just ecstatic that my guy is producing at this level ...
If we're saying they're pretty even in terms of production, I would argue the tie should go to the QB who has twice as many wins.And then you look at Watson's stats and realize he has more yards, a higher completion %, a higher YPA, a higher passer rating, and the same number of game-winning drives with a much worse supporting cast.

Also, garbage time stats don't impress me. Putting up the numbers Tannehill has and leading your team to wins is more impressive IMO.
Or you could look at it as not a single defense has prepared for the Texans and thought, "We need to make stopping David and Duke Johnson the number 1 priority."
It's just the damn Pro Bowl, guys. It's not that serious...
Deshaun Watson. The GOAT in garbage time. But everybody buys into his stats that he is somehow elite and if he was just on a better team he would be winning Super Bowls. HE HAD THAT. Still lost games. Couldn’t win the big game. Texans fans blame everybody bust him. He had the best WR in the game in his prime in Hopkins. Nothing...Watson is good. But top 5? NOPE He will be a train wreck when his legs slow down and he can’t play street ball.
It would be nice to have the single best QB season in Titans history actually be recognized by the league. I don't think that's too much for the fans to ask for.
But also you could look at it from the perspective that Watson doesn't have to share any of the stats or yardage with anyone else. He's the only thing they have. Does that make him that much more valuable than what Tannehill has done? Not really, just means he puts up more yardage because there's no one else to take up the slack.
You know who's not making the Pro Bowl?
This guy....when will he get it?
Seahawks WR Josh Gordon out indefinitely as he did not satisfy conditional reinstatement terms

There's a heap of snubs, Tannehill the top of the titans list for sure.
Buckner
Quinnen Williams
Cunningham
Hendricksen
Tonyan (Evan Engram...really?)
Tannehill
And many more
If williams and buckner didnt make, it, you cant seriously expect Simmons to.

This year. Typically that is exactly what a Pro Bowl selection is.
Agreed both are deserving.
