Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Top 5 Quarterbacks

[carnalnirvana]

as much as i hate the saints for beating us in that SB Drew Brees is the third best QB behind manning and brady...

[Jumpman232]

Tom Brady (95)
Peyton Manning (94)
Drew Brees (92)
Aaron Rodgers (89)
Big Ben (88)
Mike Vick (87)
Philip Rivers (86)
Josh Freeman (84)
Joe Flacco (82)
Matt S. (80)
Mark Sanchez (79)

This list isn't bad.

My picks:
Rodgers - 99 (his athleticism pushes him over the top)
Manning - 98
Brady - 96 (he had a big year in a great system, he's elite but don't let stats be the basis of everything)
Brees - 93
Rivers - 90 (lack of athleticism haha, still an elite arm, don't get me wrong)

Rivers is the only one I wouldn't put in my top 5 overall. These guys all have championship caliber arms, but mobility is a factor which is why Rodgers has the higher OVR.

And to all the haters, don't complain about the overalls being too high, overall is simply a calculation. EA should fix how OVR is calculated (or remove it, or make it custom! ). EA should NOT alter ratings to get a desired OVR. That's one of the bigger problems with ratings.

Rodgers is over rated, he is like a 93 at most because he has alot of weapons to help him out

p.s. vick is better than rodgers and he only has a 91 rating

Not really an outlandish statement, not like someone is saying Matt Ryan over Rodgers. From a pure passing standpoint, Brees over Rodger any day. Include the athleticism, Rodgers over Brees(although brees is athletic, he just does all his work in like a 1 foot area to avoid sacks lol)

We just live in a what have you done for me lately world, people remember Rodgers being great last season and Brees being hurt and throwing a bunch of picks. and now apparently people think Vick is worth of a 90 overall when he was great for what was basically half a season or something

As I said in another Drew Brees thread on here, stop looking at the overall and look at the actual ratings indivually as you'll see it accurately portrays them better

Um, that's how stats work. Theyre kept on a year to year basis. And I gigot doubt his numbers would have been better with more games. He was still on pace for less touchdowns and more interceptions

Edit: gigot = highly... stupid iPhone lol

Rodgers throws the ball as well as anyone and runs much netter than the other top 4. Rodgers deserves every bit of that rating.

Edit: netter = better. Stupid iPhone again.
