Re: Madden 11 Player Ratings: Who’s Overrated And Who’s Undervalued (Sportsgrid)

a couple QB's stand out to me that i think they should be better

Brady Quinn-star at notre dame, if he has a good team, he can be special
Colt Brennan-broke nearly all of hawaii's records, always kills in preseason
Kevin Kolb- really, this guy averaged 400 yards when he did play, he's good
Tim Tebow- some people say, he's one of the best ncaa QB's of all time
Brodie Croyle- he only played a few games for KC, but he did well.
Curtis Painter- only a 65 ovr, this guy did good n preseason,plus behind Manning

matt moore, i mean come on, he came in to replace Jake and he won 4 out 5 games including against the Saints and Vikings. yet he's 76 ovr. really??

I really have no opinion on the matter; I think the guy is tremendously talented and deserves a high rating (whether he needs to be THAT high is up for debate), but your post made me laugh.

I mean, you ask for only educated responses, but your post is full of nonsense. You call out people who think he is UNDERrated, which is the opposite of what you meant. Then you go on with the classic "if you don't agree with me you know nothing about football" approach. Awesome job with the name calling, grammar, cliches, and descriptive nature of the perfection that is Desean Jackson.

And for the record, it is completely fair to 'hate on' a guy who showboats before the play is over and throws the ball backwards before he scores. That was one of the stupidest things I've ever seen done in football, and the dumb thing is that he did the same thing in college when he backflipped before the goal line and dropped the ball in the field of play... how stupid do you have to be to make that mistake twice?

Way to be non-biased though.

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO the perfection that is desean jackson, he is over rated id give him an 85 the giants got cheated i think. Eli threw for over 4000yds steve smith caught over 1000yds hakeem nicks(his ovr is good w/ me i dnt complain w/ his 82) in his rookie year got over 700yds, mario manningham had over 800yds recieving and gets a 76??? The OVERRATED cowboys dez bryant has an 80 and nvr played in the nfl b4? Eli should be in low 90's steve smith should be a 90 n mario should be a 80. But really the eli one is utter BS. Over 4000 yds is better than romo, schaub, rivers, mcnabb and there all in 90's WTF

Matt Schaub led the league in passing yards last year, and IS a 90 OVR quarterback. And in regards to the 86 OVR for haynesworth, thats what he gets for talking 1 out of three plays off everygame.

What are you smoking and what game are you watching?

Brady Quinn = career back up

Croyle - sucks overwhelmed, a deer in headlights still

Teebow - has not played a down in the NFL, never played in a prostyle attack..let's wait and see first.

Kolb - give ya that one he looks like a playa.

Painter?? Painter?? Naaa are you serious? Did you watch what the Jets did to him? LOL....Bwahhhhhhaaahhhh.


Anway, I am glad you don't have any say in Madden Ratings (nothing personal of course).

Re: Madden 11 Player Ratings: Who’s Overrated And Who’s Undervalued (Sportsgrid)

noone mentioned tony gonzalez being the best te in the game, he is still solid, but shouldnt be ahead of clark or davis or as much as it pains me to say as an eagles fan, whitten, at this point of his career.

Re: Madden 11 Player Ratings: Who’s Overrated And Who’s Undervalued (Sportsgrid)

Oh the irony!

You're an Eagles fan.....we get it. He was nearly invisible in the wildcard game.

eagles fan or not, desean isnt overrated. he runs great routes. and the last game of the season and the wild card game everyone was invisible, if you understand football at all you would know that losing jamal jackson and the weak guards were the reasons the entire eagles offense disappeared. nick cole couldnt block a tackling dummy. ratliff and others were in the eagles backfield every down. i don't care who the receiver or quarterback is. if there is no time for the qb to throw, or the reciever to run his route before the qb can get set and fire the ball, the offense fails. thats wild card game wasnt on jackson or mcnabb, it was on the oline and specifically nick cole.

Re: Madden 11 Player Ratings: Who’s Overrated And Who’s Undervalued (Sportsgrid)

Overrated:

Desean Jackson
Dustin Keller
Ryan Grant (only because there are plenty backs rated lower that are just as effective IRL)

Underrated

Miles Austin
O.J. Atogwe
D R-C
Kirk Morrison
D'Qwell Jackson
Igor Olshansky
Fred Jackson
Patrick Chung
Dwayne Bowe
Anquan

He's actually slighlty under rated to be honest. He is faster IRL than in the game and he accomplished something last year that no other Packer RB has done since Don Hutson.

He goes pretty under appreciated by most people who watch the NFL.

Desean Jackson, IRL he is a great playmaker, not the best WR, YET.
DRC, his rating seems fine to me, he's still young.
Fred Jackson, Thank you for realizing this.
Dwayne Bowe, he had one good year, right?

Does anybody else think Madden needs to implement like a "utility-Playmaker" position for players like Josh Cribbs, Reggie Bush, Percy Harvin. I Mean Josh Cribbs may not be the most Elite Wide Reciever, but heIS an elite football player. Just because he is listed as a WR doesnt mean he is mainly a WR. In Cleveland he was a KR, Wildcat QB, RB, then a WR.

Also maybe a KR position, so i can list players like Roscoe Parrish as a KR instead of a WR. Just a thought.

Good job matt moore for beating the saints 2nd/3rd string guys. I'll give you the vikings win tho..

Can't base ratings on just a sample selection of games.

Yeah cause players like Cortney Roby for the saints is strictly a KR/Special Teams guy but he's also listed as WR even tho he never plays that in games.

Re: Madden 11 Player Ratings: Who’s Overrated And Who’s Undervalued (Sportsgrid)

Eric Berry's Tackle rating is only a 52. Should be mid to high 70's in my honest opinion.

Re: Madden 11 Player Ratings: Who’s Overrated And Who’s Undervalued (Sportsgrid)

I think there's WAY too many Jet players on the list, let's not forget they went 8-8 last year and BARELY crept into the playoffs. Let's not all jump on the bandwagon just yet...

LOL Keep hating MIA.

Remember, we didnt just get to the playoffs and collapse to "superior" teams, we took it to them, all on the road, and shut up them and their opposing fans.

I wouldnt talk MIA, remember what that stands for.

Re: Madden 11 Player Ratings: Who’s Overrated And Who’s Undervalued (Sportsgrid)

I disagree and you should too. If 95+ is reserved for the all time greats, Peyton Manning definitely deserves to be up there. And though Drew Brees is not even really a hall of famer yet, he is playing at a hall of fame level at this point in his career and deserves to have that sort of rating right now. However the players are definitely overated in Madden and need to be lowered. Way to many 90s.

Peyton Manning is a hall of fame quarterback therefore he should be a 99 no debate. Darrelle revis and Jared Allen are game changers who can SINGLE HANDEDLY determine the outcome of a game when they get hot. Disagree? Darrelle Revis got the jets to the championship by basically making a statement saying "Hey you throw the ball anywhere near chad ochocrapo im picking the ball off." Jared allen basically said "Hey if you dont have a tight end on my side and a running back in to block im going to knock your quarterbacks freakin head off" Players like those players like drew brees and patrick willis are guys who head coaches say a week beforehand "WTF are we going to do about INSERT OVR 99 PLAYER NAME HERE" these are the people who sport that 99 ovr rating and for very good reason

I Hate the Miami Dolphins with the same passion as the Cleveland Cavaliers' owner resents LeBron James. That being said, im a Bills fan, and we suck. ALTHOUGH, we do usually split with Miami and NY.

You know those Jets fans, 1 good playoff run, just remember last year when the Bills picked off 5 passes from Sanchez, and one more from your punter. Good times.
