Re: Madden NFL 12 Team Ratings - AFC West (ESPN)

I could care less about any of the team "overall" ratings in Madden. Because they very rarely are that telling of how well a team will play in a game of Madden. I remember starting a Franchise with the Bills last year and I was rated an 84 or something... Then on the field I would get killed... I don't know how they do their team rating system, but I think it's lame.

Regarding the Raiders: I think the discrepancy between the Raiders and the Chargers is what doesn't seem right to me. The Raiders beat the Chargers twice last year, beat the Chiefs twice last year, and beat the Broncos twice last year. If anything, put the Chargers down some. They have been overrated for a while now.

Aso leaving the Raiders does hurt the secondary obviously, as losing the best player at any position will do. Whoever was talking about how great Routt is has obviously not watched any Raiders games recently (within the past oh 4 years or so). As someone who watches EVERY Raider game each year, Routt is a BIG liability in man coverage. If Aso is gone, the Raiders will need to make a move for someone else in the secondary.
