Either way you get the same end result, jus figured this way would avoid drastic OVR changes and hence save EA from some inevitable backlash from fans obsessed with ratings.

I'm guessing changing player ratings is a lot easier than changing how the game is played. And I guess you'll get an issue of if the gap between 88 to 99 is bigger then the gap between 55 and 99 is huge!
Not saying a DT should be able to keep up with a WR, but those guys can move when they get rolling!
