Re: Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions
Greg Olsen is an 86 but Brandon Pettigrew is a 81??? What a joke EA.
Brandon was 3rd amongst all TEs in the NFL in receptions! the dude put
numbers better then the average WR in the NFL.
Ans dont let me get started on Suh and Calvin. smh Calvin is argulably one of
the best WRs in the game right now, if not the best. And suh put up rookie
numbers and breaking records that any incoming DT will probably never
touch.
The lions never get any type of respect! I swear who ever does the ratings
must be a Bears, Vikings, Packers fan.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions
BEARS:
Overrated- MAYBE Matt Forte, but only slightly - Not really sure about how fast he is, but for the most part I think he's spot-on. Madden recognized that he doesn't really excel in one thing, he's just good at everything. Again, the speed MAY be a tad bit too high but in the demo on SLOW he felt right.
- RB Chester Taylor - no way he's elusive at ALL. From what I saw, when he ran the ball it was routinely 2 yards and a cloud of dust. Elusiveness needs to go DOWN, as well as BCV.
- The entire OL - If you remember last year's game against the Giants, they allowed 9 sacks by HALFTIME. If you saw the first preseason game, you'd know the line was in mid-season form. The best player on that line may be Gabe Carimi. Chris Williams is a bust, no wonder why he slid down teams' boards on draft day. Kreutz has been our best lineman for years but he's gone. Garza is a decent backup on most teams. Omiyale, J'Marcus Webb and Lance Louis are waiver wire and practice squad afterthoughts. I don't understand why they're even starting. No player on this line should be above 80, not even Kreutz.
- Bears' WRs. Knox is legit, but Hester isn't THAT good. I'd say a slight ratings bump down. Also for Bennett as well in terms of ACC and maybe speed.
Also another note - Madden always switches around the Bears safeties. Every strrong safety on the roster is a FS, and every FS with the exception of Chris Conte and maybe Major Wright is a SS. I never understood this.
One more, Jay Cutler's toughness is too low. I'd say around 85-95 is warranted; He's been sacked 87 times in the last two years, 9 times in ONE game (by halftime), and he's only missed ONE game: The game after which he got sacked 9 times. And yeah, he got hurt in the NFC Championship game, he had torn ligaments, so what. 75% or regular people can't even walk on a sprained ankle. People fry him for coming out, they forget he came in for a series or two with the injury before the coaches MADE him come out.
Cutler only 72 toughness? Bears O-Line getting shown unnecessary love? Safeties STILL at wrong positions?

Haha you serious dude? Locker ran for nearly 1000 yards @ UW his freshmen year before getting hurt as a sophomore and then moving to a pro-style offense when Sark came in. I would say Cutler is about right at 71 and if he was more athletic he would be able to get away from all those sacks. lolComment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions
It's not always about production. You'd like it to be, but in this case it's more about the physical skills Olsen possess. He has Wide Receiver skills, so when that translates to a TE in the receiving department, it makes him higher overall. Plus in Mike Martz's system, WR's get more plays called for them, so the fact Olsen only had X number of catches and Pet had Y didn't matter in the mind of the Madden rating czar. Pettigrew is a better Tight End, but Olsen is faster and more of a playmaker and we know how important that is to Madden ratings.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions
About Forte a lot of people don't realize this because he is a bigger HB, but he is more of a speed back then a power back. He's not blazing fast so I think they got him about right.BEARS:

Chris Williams has been overrated since the start of madden 11 and when they moved him from LT to LG it made his overall go up because of the wonderfully perfect overall system they have.
The reason the Safetys are all mixed up is because the Bears move them back in forth a lot in their system. In the Bears tampa two system the two safety positions are almost the same. The only Safety that is wrong now is Chris Harris is now a SS, but that move just happening this preseason.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions
Maybe I'm just a huge Bears fan but why is Hester's catch rating so low? His awareness should be down but he didn't drop a lot of passes last year and he made some pretty spectacular catches at times throughout the season.Watch me at twitch.tv/dmanchiComment
