Does Madden have a potential rating like NBA 2K has?

i think so but its hidden. The only time u see it is draft day. oh by the way it seems the computer created rookies progress fine. its just the real guys that there is a problem. I wish i had a digital cam so i could show u all the picks.

hmm...weird all these post come up. but yet? still no pictures of the game. That should be a requirement from now on on these forums.

also, of course it would be broken. That's just karma for you getting it early. lol just had to one up everyone.

IGN did those. I actually commented that i wonder what game they were playing. Those guys actually got better then they got worse as they got older. I have found NO proof that players lose ratings once they go up. if they go up. Like i said every top QB in my sims all retired at the same rating they first had. Though jarmarcus russel did gain 3 points in 10 years not 1. I forgot the original starting point. I am doing another sim without the downloaded roster and with NO modifications. Maybe that will help.

And when u get it it will be broken to. If i had a cam i would show the pics. I have nothing to gain by posting faulty info. and i am asking poeple to verify that they are experiencing the same thing. Sim past 4 years though please.

I still don't see it honestly. The only thing that I have noticed is that players on the Raiders are getting worse but its not shown like positive jumps. Ex: guy gets better it shows (+3) guy gets worse it shows nothing.

Michael Bush has gone from 79 to a 77 but its not showing the negative drops.

Oh wonderful. Guess I'm going to edit Colt Brennan to 99 OVR and save myself the time.
