Re: ESPN NFL 2K5 ratings analysis.

From what I've tested out on my rosters, aggressiveness and consistency play big roles in gameplay.
I've also looked at the coverage rating. Seems to me that "coverage" is basically how close the DBs/LBs follow the receiver on their route. Thats in man to man coverage, it was tough to tell on any zone coverages though. But aggressiveness affects DB play greatly. Especially in zone.

In my next roster update, I'm going to be taking a look at aggressiveness for the OL and DL play. I thought this needed work after noticing my homeboy Kevin Williams on the Vikes never gets pressure on the QB. Then I took a look at his aggressiveness rating. Rated way lower than the Ted Washingtons or Vince Wilforks type of DTs in the game. The run stoppers are better pass rushers than the usual pass rushing DTs.

Another thing I have edited, and noticed is the pass read coverage for QBs and their composure. Really affects how often the AI QBs will scramble, and how they make their reads on passing plays.
