Player's progressing... not the way you guys want it, though

[Blzer]

Look, this had always bothered me about what people say about player progression, and how it should work. Even though they're right, they took the wrong approach to it. Everybody on here thinks that their ratings affect the way they perform, when really it should be the other way around--where the way that they perform affects their ratings.

Basically, what I'm saying is that performance comes first, and how they play is how they should be rated. You don't look at the rating first and say how good or bad they are. So, basically, if someone's rated a 69, and gets 15 interceptions and 18 sacks in one year, you guys get mad because they don't progress. Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he get the 15 interceptions and the 18 sacks at a 69 rating? I mean, why do you need a higher rating just to show that you can do good? You just did awesome. That's what I'm saying... people look at the rating and say that it's not good enough, but really, look at how they're performing. So, the rating doesn't affect their performance, and while that guy should've gotten an uplift in how he was performing, that's how his ratings will be affected. The only way that I think that ratings should affect the way they perform is if you have a rookie that's just getting better and better as the years go by through training.

Ok, there's another thread but I have to reply to this here so it stays in context...

Think again. If rating were determined by the way you play, you wouldn't need ratings at all. Cause this way they wouldn't matter at all.

And thinking about the 68 OVR player, that's called an emerging of a player.

IMO, your post makes no sense at all (not meant in a hostile way). If it were like your suggesting, you could have a team full of 15 OVRs or 99 OVRs and nothing would change. Players would have no skill differences inside the game and all that'd matter would be your HUMAN player skills. And that would take away the whole point of playing franchise and building your team and so on.

OK, Fellas.

When someone posts a duplicate post, the only thing that keeps it alive is all the people replying to it to tell them it's a duplicate. Just let it go.
