5.0 YPC in 07 and 08.???? Who else has done this with over 200 carries in both years?

Answer = NOBODY.... A.P. came very close, and had alot more carries. Thats why he is the #1 back in madden.

I made this video BTW

under the old ratings I would agree but remember this is a new era for madden ratings and they will be a lot more spread out I mean there are only 50 total 95+ guys out of like 2000.....

Re: The Official Brandon Jacobs rating petition.

Hes a big body that is incredibly hard to bring down. Thats what he should be in Madden. Hes not a superior back in the league. 89 is a good rating.

The guy can't run routes, he's not the best receiver. He doesn't have great lateral speed. Not the fastest guy. Doesn't have the greatest vision. He's a bruiser with some great feet. I think it's more than fair to rate him as high as an 89. If it weren't for his amazing ability to break tackles, he'd be just another running back. So please spare us the lectures on football knowledge.
lol you are a true eagles fan bro....but Jacobs is a great RB with great awareness, unbelievable tackle breaking ability and is actually somewhat agile especially for his size...just because he isn't the same type of back as westbrook does not mean he isn't good...everything you listed is what Westbrook excels at (except for vision good vision but not great oh and Jacobs has decent vision)

Why are you complaining about Jacobs overall. You know nothing about football and escpically the Giants. Jacobs does not have a higher overall rating because of five other names on the Giants.

Diehl, Seubert, O'Hara, Snee, Mckenzie

Jacobs runs behind the best offensive line in all of the NFL. Don't worry the offensive line for the giants will have blocking ratings so Jacobs runs more like a 95 overall. I am a big Giants fan by the way.

I hate this argument so much...you could say this about Emmit Smith for God's sake but it does not make his play any less impressive...
