What's the difference between EA's player ratings and your own player ratings?

@playmaker I agree with everything you said I loved your alumni rosters even though it took forever inputting them on ps3

How do you know what a low rating is for certain attributes? For example, if you have a small back who is mainly about speed obviously his break tackle, trucking, and stiff arm would be low, but what is low enough? 60's? 50's? Some speed guys have break tackle in the high 70's low 80's. Isn't that a little high?

Well we actually are working on them together haha. Were roommates, we have another person joining in on it to but membership was banned, i guess we had too many people under the same IP. We have came up with all the formulas and research together in our ratings.

I do most of the research and ratings making while they do the inputting of the numbers and equipment updates. I have lots of free time at work to do this. Tech job that has lots of downtime.

Over the years i have compaired the broken tackle ratings to Madden and older NCAA games

The smaller players usually were in the 60's for RB's

Like Warric Dunn for example he's never been over 70 in Madden and his strength rating has always been low

IN NCAA the game will let you know if you've created a speed back power back or balanced RB

Usually when you raise a players strength up too high and his break tackles ratings....if he has very good speed he will no loger be considered a speed back anymore even though he's only 6'0 190

Small WR's should be about 40-50 for broken tackles

Small RB's between 60-70

Mobile Option type QB's can be treated like RB's and depending on their size for example a smaller option QB woul dbe between 60-70 and big option Qb or someone along the lines of McNabb is in the 70's.....

The only exceptions I've ever made have been for Tommy Frazier and few others which i give like an 80-85 but they are very rare.

But it's mostly common sense a WR at 5'11 175 lb's shouldn't be rated 80 in strength and 80 broken tackles which is very common in NCAA throughout the rosters if you observe them....

That type of player should be avoiding tackles with his elusiveness and agility not power and strength to break tackles.

I agree with the QBs, but if you make a third Mike Teel should get that honor.

RBs should be Ray Rice, JJ Jennings, Terrel Willis.

I'd be interested to see how Paul Robeson would translate into a game.

Thanks Playmakers, you have me convinced that it will show up on the field during gameplay if the ratings of players are tweaked properly. I am looking through the TeamBuilder ratings noticing these things. A lot of the ratings are way too high and like you said it will show up when you play and will make the game a lot better if the ratings are the way they should be.

I still don't see how you would have John Brantley at a 84? Sure the guy has never started but incoming freshman would be rated better than that, Surely playing behind a Star Qb an some junk playing time would make him better than a freshman..
