We were missing McFadden in the first game who was much, MUCH more important to our team than anyone the Chargers were missing (not sure if this was brought up, but if it wasn't...). So yes, we were as shorthanded as you guys.

What a joke rating for the Raiders. 10 points behind the Chiefs and the Chargers who had 2 and 1 more wins respectively.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Team Ratings - AFC West (ESPN)
Team Overall means absolutely nothing...
no need to get worked up because the Raiders aren't a high team overall
It's all about the player behind the controller, and the only factor that matters in Madden is speed; so therefore the Raiders are the best team to use in Madden; bar none..
I can careless if Madden rated the Giants a '70'; I won't lose sleep over it..It's just a number, and 9/10 the team will play better then the overall rating '70'..2010 OS March Madness Winner
Falcons
Braves
Bulldogs

Re: Madden NFL 12 Team Ratings - AFC West (ESPN)
The argument could me made that the Chargers missed:
1. David Binn
2. Kassim Osgood (left as a FA)
3. Vincent Jackson
4. Marcus McNeill
In that order....more than the Raiders missed Nnamdi Asomugha. The Binn and/or Osgood absences can be directly attributed to at least 3 losses.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Team Ratings - AFC West (ESPN)
Well genius, seeing as how the conversation is about why team A is rated where it is or why it's higher than team X, Y, and/or Z then how would you suggest everyone go about having an objective discussion on subjective material?Originally posted by brettmickeyGeez can we stop the stupid arguments about who could have/ should have won games because of injuries? Even if players weren't injured who knows if they would have had a bad game anyways? There are too many variables involved for someone to justify an argument based on injuries. There is absolutely no way in proving who would win a game if injuries didn't occur because they are apart of the game so whoever won is the winner whoever lost is the loser that's all we know and that's all we need to know. Stop making excuses for your team because they lostComment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Team Ratings - AFC West (ESPN)
The Raiders aren't a good team period. Sure they swept the division and put up the best record since what....2002? All this crying over a team rating..... The Faid have some of the fastest skill players and ya'll should be happy with that. Consistancy.... When they can accomplish that then they will get madden respect. Maybe try finishing better than 3rd or 4th more than once in a decade...Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Team Ratings - AFC West (ESPN)
Pretty much agree with what was done.
Jon Robinson of ESPN The Gamer breaks down the AFC West team overall ratings in Madden NFL 12.
As you no doubt know, we are releasing the "Madden NFL 12" Overall Team Ratings over the course of this week and next. We're doing it division by division, and today we've got ratings for the AFC West. And remember, we'll also be breaking down the complete player ratings starting August 1. Until then, Tebow or Orton, who you got?.
Denver Broncos: 74
It's all about who you want as your starting quarterback in Denver. Tim Tebow is 77 overall with 80 speed and 76 throwing accuracy while Kyle Orton is 82 overall with only 64 speed but 85 accuracy. Really depends on how you like to play "Madden." As a guy who likes mobility, I'll take Tebow.
San Diego Chargers: 85
With Philip Rivers clocking in at 96 overall and Antonio Gates at 99, the Chargers are going to be tearing up defenses through the air. The fact that they have three running backs with 90-plus speed doesn't hurt, either.
Kansas City Chiefs: 84
Jamaal Charles was one of the surprises of the "Madden" cover vote, showing strong support throughout his campaign. His reward? EA Sports makes him one of the most feared backs in Madden with 98 speed.
Oakland Raiders: 76
Darrius Heyward-Bey blazes the virtual field with 97 speed but only has a<b> 68 catching rating.</b> That pretty much sums up the team right there. Oh yeah, Shane Lechler is a beast at 98 overall.
Source: Madden NFL 12 Team Ratings - AFC West
My question is with Darrius. Is it that he can't catch or can't get open?
I did not see every raiders game, but from the one I saw. He catches the ball, but does'nt get open much.
If this is the case I would have given him a low route running rating, and a decent catch rating.
This way yes he is fast, but can't run a good route to get open on a avg AWR DB. Just makes more sense to me.Simply *Magic* Just click the link and Watch :)

Re: Madden NFL 12 Team Ratings - AFC West (ESPN)
Really....? I do feel good about my team. I don't have any unrealistic expectations of where the Broncos might finish in terms of wins/loses and place in the AFCW.
The delusional average faid fan on the other hand thinks his team was a contender...Wants respect for an average season.....The AFCW is not a very strong division, and hasn't been for awhile now. They want respect for beating a really bad Broncos team. A Broncos team that hadn't been that bad in over 40 years! Oooooh... World beaters! The funny thing is that the Raiders were that bad for 8 years! 8 years! Damn! If the Broncos were that bad of a team for 8 years I might throw batteries at people at Mile High stadium too! I still wouldn't dress like I'm at a halloween party 16 weeks out of the year though... Now they get to average status and here come all the faid fans complaining about ratings. "We were undefeated in the division and we don't even get respect!". WTF man! This is BS! And blah, blah, blah! Your fast! Thats it! Thats all you get. An overachieving Chiefs team?? Really. Again not much to celebrate about. The Chargers are the team to beat this year. They've been the team to beat for a few years now. Sure they underachieved some the last year or two, and fell to the faid, but they are still a notch above the rest of the West and have the best QB in the division.
Live with it. Just like the last 9 years.....Comment
