One thing I will always give Madden is that their rosters are top notch. You can always tell that they put a lot of time into them. I only wish that the same could be said for ESPN.
Perfect example on the Falcons: Last season LT Bob Whitfield went down a little after midseason. Kevin Shaffer replaced him on the line for the rest of the year and played better than anyone else had the entire season. Because of this he is going to go into the season as the starting left tackle. On this year's Madden roster he is rated a 79, which is a very fair rating for someone who played very well but is unproven. ESPN, however, rated him a 49. Furthermore, he has the EXACT same ratings that ESPN gave him in 2k4. And even NOW, when he is slated as the starting left tackle in the online roster update he is still rated a 49.
Let's not get started with that again, maybe he is overrated like a lot of star players are but what Rush Limbaugh actually said was totally bogus.

Multiple? You have McNabb and now Owens. The only other guy would be Westbrook who isn't a star just yet. It's not like hes on the Vikings O or even the Colts.
Mcnabb is a star but that don't mean he's not overrated. Limbaugh was right about him.
Are there any ratings that haven't been released yet? If you use those URLs and change the team name in the URL to the one you want to view it's giving me the ratings for the teams I wanted to check so far.
