Madden NFL 13 Team Ratings from E3 Build

Re: Madden NFL 13 Team Ratings from E3 Build

Maybe this has been pointed out. Has anyone taken into account that there are a couple of new ratings that might be worked into the equation now?

Also that this could mean that there's more of a gap in overalls than there has been in the past (which I think a lot of people were hoping for).

I feel as though the high experience costs may be a sign of that. It would be unreasonable for the 90's attributes to cost so much experience if the stock rosters had too many players with ratings in the 90's - the draft class players would never reach those levels, so the players from the 2012 season at their peak would always be better than the future players. Speculation of course.

Not fair being worse than the Skins and the D isn't horrible. If you were indeed a Panthers fan you would know that we were starting 3rd stringers in every position except the DB's (who actually do suck besides Gamble).

I would give the Panthers an honest 79-81 range

As a fan you would give them that grade which is expected because you have a biased opinion we all do when it comes to our teams. As a Patriots fan I have no biased against or for the Panthers, I can look at it objectively and see they are a team in transition, they have a lot of young talent but they are still a few years away from being a contender. I would say a rating in the 70-75 range is more than generous.

Not sure how the Lions are a 77 when comparing them to the Bears (78), Jets (79), Panthers (76) and Redskins (78). I'm pretty confident in saying if those teams are where they are ranked, the Lions should easily be an 80, with the Saints being in the low 80's.

This. Don't give a hoot about this, they seem to have the rankings off on several teams. Those few teams in the mid 80s are definitely not that far ahead of the rest. Needs to be more teams in the 80s. You compare two teams and how they did in the 11/12 season and the team ratings just don't hold up. Try again, EA.

Bucs at 69 overall with all their new signings???

Re: Madden NFL 13 Team Ratings from E3 Build

These ratings are lower than the team ratings in NCAA Football 13. What the hell? Lol...I don't get it. The 49ers should be higher than 81 by the way. Should be near mid 80's just like the Patriots and Steelers.

lol the thing is though in ncaa WAY to many teams are rated in the 90's where madden is rated way to low..

Def not. If I was being overly biased like some of these people I would say 85+. They don't deserve worse than the skins as they beat them and are just better and they had no original starting LB's last year and 1 original starting DL/DE. That being said if they had those players they would have played a lot better and EA would have been more generous. I think a 79 is more than fair. I'm not asking for and mid 80's even

The only problem I see with your logic is basing it off of the Redskins. After looking at the ratings the NFC East is overrated like always. Take a look around at some of the other teams and I would say the Panthers should be in the lower to mid 70s. But then the logic of well they beat the redskins so they should be better couldn't you make it like... O lets say the Panthers lost to the vikings so they should be worse?

But overall I just hope this means that the ratings are more stretched out and not everyone and their mother is at 90+ overall and you can't tell the difference between the good and the bad.

I honestly think the Vikings should be 1-2 points better than the Panthers or equal whatever the rating. I don't care about the numbers I'm talking relative numbers. I mean the panthers were the team with the most injuries last year if I recall correctly (at one point they def were) but the ratings don't take this into account. They probably gave the injured players like Jon Beason a few point decreases in OVR just because they were hurt, but probably not Peyton Manning... Beason was a 96 overall last year.

Re: Madden NFL 13 Team Ratings from E3 Build

One game does not make a team or a player, otherwise the ratings would really be jacked up. The Ravens are an 80 overall because their offense sucks.

lol what? Ravens 23 PPG....Steelers 20 PPG...Care to fix that post

Yeah I know what you mean about Injuries lol. I remember the Broncos against the Bengals early in the year half our payroll was injured lol. But I might be in the minority but I actually like the low ratings. But after reading some other things I think that one big culprit behind these may be the new production rating and that causing a huge swing in overall. If they have the production in at 0 then that may be why these ratings are overall fairly low. But once again just speculation.

Yea I like that too. I personally don't care gameplay wise because I was 22-3 in Madden last year with the Panthers lol. But the ratings more of a morale thing for me lol.

Even tho this is based on a early build the Lions should have easily been an 80 or a tad higher....

Team ratings don't mean Anything.

Re: Madden NFL 13 Team Ratings from E3 Build

How do you forget that they traded up to #2, when they beat out your Browns to do it??

Anyways, you obviously are lacking some knowledge about the Skins roster--

At WR we signed Pierre Garcon and Joseph Morgan. Moss is our slot receiver after being our best rated WR last year.

At RB we have Roy Helu as our best option in Madden. He's got speed hands, and moves.

At TE we have a top-ten TE in Fred Davis.

The OL keeps getting younger and more talented, and the defense is talented but hasn't met its potential.

Never mind RG3. The Skins will be one of the most used teams online this year (which is annoying as an actual Skins fan).

I don't necessarily agree where the Skins are rated in comparison to a bunch of other teams, but the 78 rating itself doesn't jump out as unfair to me.

The Skins are not a top 15 team yet. Pierre Garcon is severely inconsistent. Half of his total yardage was earned in only three games against Tampa, a beat up Chiefs squad, and the Pats. He has consistently been in the bottom of the league regarding drop percentage as he doesn't have very good hands at all (that stat can be found here http://www.profootballfocus.com/blog...op-percentage/) and those numbers were WITH Manning throwing him the ball. And Josh Morgan is an average receiver but nothing to write home about. Moss isn't anything special at this point in his career either. I will give you Fred Davis, he is one of my personal favorite tight ends in the league. Your o-line gave up 41 sacks last season and led a below average rushing attack. I will hand it to your defense as it is on the rise very quickly. But the offense is definitely lacking in areas and there is a reason the Skins were a bottom 10 team. Their team rating does not accurately reflect this as they should be bumped down a few points until they prove what you are touting them to be. The Skins seem to win free agency every year, but it is the quality of the players, not the quantity, that determines just how well a team has improved in the offseason. I wish them luck this season as I was a huge RGIII fan before the college season started, but they just aren't ready yet to make that leap.
