Projecting Team Ratings.

Not to mention, they'll have the 3 or 4th best QB in the division. Everyone improves, while they fall off.

Yes Stevie was the #3 receiver. No problem man he didn't do a lot last year. This year there'll be more emphasis on the running game this year. The running back corps is still really good so they should be fine in that department.

How do you focus on running game with unproven backs and losing two starting OL?

Well that's not true, Kendall Hunter is a good back Reggie Bush is a good back and Carlos Hyde did well in his rookie season last year

And they addressed that. They have the depth on the offensive line.

Hunter is coming off of an ACL, Reggie Bush hasn't done anything of note since the Saints, and Hyde isn't proven, at all. Plus they lost their best two run blockers om the OL.

Yes indeed and because it's Madden they'll play like they've lost no one.. Losing players don't matter because ratings have proved to mean little...

I disagree. I think that ratings do matter quite a bit. What makes you think that they don't matter is that EA's system for rating players bunches them all in the top 20% of one another without any true variation, as suggested by other data sources outside of EA.
