What Madden could learn from ESPN

[feeq14]

Madden has never been above borowing good ideas. but aside from the obvious graphical advances madden should really adopt a tweaked version of espns ratings system.

Instead of having Awareness represent SOOOO! many areas of ability for players in madden they need to break it up into categories like ESPN has. it would add a great deal of realism in my opinion. Look at the difference the major stats for a QB

madden - Awr, Thp, Tha, Spd.
ESPN - Thp, Tha, Spd, Pass Read Coverage, Scrambling, Composure, Consistency, leadership

There is a big difference there it makes it so two players with similar physical attributes like Peyton Manning and Ryan Leaf, can trully be completely different players

Agreed. Although the key is preventing the rating system from becoming complex or unmanageable. There should be a scrambling rating, something to determine how good a QB is at passing while on the run or shuffling in the pocket. The system is fine as-is but there's always next year for improvement.
