Update on my rookie QB in Madden 2003

[Darkiller]

Remember the rookie QB I picked late in the 2nd round last season (Mario Mc Coy) ? the one that I named the starter from day 1, trading my two-time TOP QB Jeff Garcia to the Bears to make room for the youngster...

Well he's had a huge season (I coach only) :

3812 yards - 30 TDs
NFL's TOP QB
Pro Bowler
Offensive Rookie of the year

for his achievements, his overall rating made an 8-point jump from 72 to 80 :)

After Pre-Season, Mc Coy's overall rating earned another 3 points.
He has now gone from 72 to 83 in the span of one full season (rookie year) !

I guess he might surpass everyone's expectations ...

That's great! I really wouldn't have expected that from a 2nd rounder in Madden. I'm sure being a rookie starter helped, but WOW, what a season for a rookie!

Congrats again!

yeah it's fun playing this guy out...
In our regular season opener (his 2nd Pro season) against the Rams at Candlestick (played last night) he just lighted it out !!!

3 TDS - 405 yards (1 INT though) - 71% completion
He looks even sharper than last year...
He got us past the Rams 31-10 (something I had been unable to do when Garcia was my QB, always losing to to the Rams..)

I'm having a ball watching him play.

EA must have juiced the Euro version.
