All Ratings Talk Here Per Millennium

Re: Here ya go Ian...

what are you going to make lower on Brady to make his rating go that low? An injury to his knee wont effect his accuracy or throwing power or awareness, the only thing it would effect is his speed and mobility which isnt that high to begin with. Brady is still basically 1 & 1a with Manning for best QB in the NFL. If he struggles this year then they'll lower him a little with an update.

Re: Here ya go Ian...

Well he hasn't taken a snap in a year, so his arm may be a bit rusty...but I agree...mobility is the issue with a knee injury...and he isn't that mobile...but Brady doesn't have a Jamarcus Russell arm...so 99 thp he should not be.

First off his throw power should be lowered just because it should be lowered. Second, yes it would effect his trow power and really his entire throwing motion which on deeper passes could effect his accuracy.

Third, just because his speed and mobility weren't great does not mean they shouldn't be lowered which would effect his overall.

I feel for Donny. There's absolutely no way to appease everyone, or even most people.

Re: Here ya go Ian...

I think the ratings are fine. Donny should leave brady in the high 90's until he shows us that he's lost a step.

As for D.Hall I might sound like a redskins fan but D.Hall should be between 79-83. He played very well the last half of the season for the redskins. Take his Man coverage to a 68 if you want. But he has the tools and speed to be an elite corner. U can't take that away from him.

Keep up the good work Donny.

From one skins fan to another, I couldn't agree with you more. Hall should be in the high 70's, maybe low 80's after that performance he had pretty much immediately after the skins picked him up. Hall has proven himself IMO.

Brady on the other hand...we can't really judge him based on the fact that he hasn't played but it's nuts to watch people argue over a few points. From 96 to 98? Cmon guys...seriously?

Re: Here ya go Ian...

Guys the rosters get updates... settle down.
Why hasn't this been locked up ..."here you go ian"... come on get this out of here.

Re: Here ya go Ian...

the guy isnt crippled, he's ahead of schedule on recovery so he's prob been throwing the ball and word within the Pats organization is that he looks great so its not like the guy is walking around with a hobble and cant step into his throws anymore.

Re: Here ya go Ian...

I don't get why people get all upset about someone rating. If I remember correctly... You can edit any player attributes. Correct? Yes sir, you are correct.

Than what is the big deal. Just because you don't think he's that doesn't mean anything. I'm a Jet fan and the last thing I like to see is anyone on Pats rated higher than a 2. BUT, the mand does have more Rings than the entire Jets franchise. Soo... take that for what it's worth.

Re: Here ya go Ian...

Oh... One last thing. Can we stop with these attribute threads and keep them all to one thread?

Re: Here ya go Ian...

I'm going to stop posting on ratings threads...it seems like people are assuming I'm nitpicking, when I'm really just voicing my opinion on how things are outside the game. I didn't belittle their opinions when it came to colored gloves and such.....

You are correct...if the ratings seem off, we can change 'em when we get the game...good enough for me. No need to get in a tizzy.

You are entitled to an opinion man, even if it's a little...strange.

Re: Here ya go Ian...

Ian, I sit you a tweet about this last week, I'm glad its being addressed... All bias aside, let's talk about D. Hall.

He SUCKED in Oakland. Why? It was the wrong scheme for him. What is run in Washington is the same thing they run in ATL. There is a reason why he was starting over Carlos Rogers when he came to Washington and Carlos is no slouch ( he can't catch at all LOL).

I understand that you guys can't keep him at an elite level but you have to guage his performance off of what he did in Washington and understand why he played like he did in Oakland.

Here, we play a man scheme that allows him to read the QB and attack the ball. Look at how he instantaneously got 4 interceptions when he came to Washington. Again, I know he can't be rated elite cus there is some residual from what happened in Oakland but don't completely gimp the guy. He's in the right scheme and he excelled in it as he did in ATL.

Re: Here ya go Ian...

I don't know what your issue is?

Hall 77 and Brady 98 this feels about right to me.

Brady is coming off an ACL. He will not be in top form on day 1, Thud.

Now, his game is mostly accuracy. Brady and Manning could play QB from a wheelchair for all the athleticism that they bring to the game. So there's a good chance that if Brady's throwing motion was not affected by his knee, he could start right where he left off. But that is a big "if".

Time will tell.

Please, these bug me more than anything.

Ratings cannot be 100% accurate! Why cry over something that is purely based on speculation!

No one in the world can create correct ratings for every person in the league before the season has started. A difference in 5 pts of judgement is not a valid reason to be upset.

Well, it seems like they're fixing almost everything else...gotta have something to cry over.
