Really, really late on the reply but my complaint was that they DO NOT match the numbers from last year's real life numbers.

The QB rating numbers are absolutely awful. Kurt Warner was ranked 10th with 93.2 yet the 10th guy here has a number in the low 80s. In 2008 the 10th ranked was 89.4, which would be 4th ranked on the list I posted.

Passing Yards? Only 2 guys reached 4000. 10 did in 2009 and 6 did in 2008. However that's not my biggest complaint (well I have two of them). The first is that the drop-off is insane. 4815 to 4010 to 3685 in 4 spots? With 3685 being the 4th-highest total? 3685 would have been 9th in 2008 and not even sniffed the Top 10 in 2009. My other complaint (and biggest one) is the amount of elite QBs passing for less than (or barely reaching) 200/game. Rivers, Ben, Eli and Palmer are all high-80s, low-90s for rating and they can't even hit 200? I know in 09 Palmer didn't but based on the number of passes that QBs throw in-game hitting 200 should be done automatically, not having the 10th-highest total averaging 205/game

The TDs are fine (outside of Stafford, Eli and Young throwing 9), but when coupled with the high INT numbers, they're not. Rivers was 21/21, Brady was 25/21, Peyton was 32/20, Eli was 15/9 (Eli hasn't thrown less than 20 TDs when starting 16 games his entire career). And then how the hell does Brees only toss 4? Plus 7 QBs threw over 20 INTs - there's only been 4 combined the last 2 years, and 7 the last 3.

The problem with completion % (which in turn I'm assuming is why the QB Ratings are so low) is that WRs drop a ridiculous number of passes in-game, even when simming. I'm pretty sure everyone's noticed that as well. League leader in receptions will have over 100 but at the same time will have almost 20 drops (or more), which is mind-blowing.

So basically my problem with them is that they're just no in-line with real life.

And the QB numbers (aside from completion % again) were fine last year even after the patch, it was just the RB numbers that were completely messed up. If a RB had 90+ Break Tackle he was guaranteed 2000+ yards and 20+ TDs.
