Didnt someone say they have a minimum threshold that even if you put a guy at zero he is not actually a zero....see punters capable of playing as guards

Yes...There is in fact a relatively small separation across the 0-100 scale..I believe in regards to speed, every 10 points is something like 0.30 of a second difference...That may not be exact but it shows how small the separation is..

Good luck and good riddance to Donny.

Best news madden has released in years. Now get a guy who knows what he's doing in there and this game could become playable on the virtual field. Like others have stated before. Half this games problem is overrated players and the bloated number of players with the ratings that left most scratching their head.

You're not the first to say this so I'm not singling you out but this is the last time in this thread something like this will be said about Donny.

0.3 seconds is an eternity in a sprint which is what the speed rating meaaures

Good luck Donny. Thanks for the effort. However, I do know there is at least one red headed lineman(retired) who is happy with this news!! 😁 wish I could find that blog it was awesome.

I'm not saying it won't happen but how do we know that Dan or the next guy won't have the constraints as Donny had?

Yes I know, though acceleration is included in a sprint, which is another issue with MAdden, I was merely trying to give a simple example in stating that there is not much separation between 0 and 100...IF you look at the current ratings, speed difference between an OL and WR isn't really more than 10 to 20 points, which means, an offensive lineman is still running too fast...

So lets say it is 0.15 seconds for every 10 rating points...
