    Madden NFL 13 Ratings - Vote For the Quarterback with the Highest Awareness Rating


    Voting has begun to determine which QB deserves the highest awareness rating in Madden NFL 13. Tomorrow, we'll see the ratings for the rest of the quarterbacks.

    This campaign allows fans to vote on attributes like speed, elusiveness, hit power and more. The winner of each vote will be the highest-rated player for that attribute at their position in Madden NFL 13.

    Upcoming weeks will focus on running backs, wide receivers and defenders, with the winners in each category announced every Friday. Here is the voting schedule breakdown:
    • July 30 โ€“ Aug 3: Quarterbacks โ€“ Speed, Throw Power, Throw Accuracy, Awareness
    • Aug 6 โ€“ 10: Running Backs โ€“ Speed, Acceleration, Trucking, Elusiveness
    • Aug 13 โ€“ 17: Wide Receivers & Tight Ends โ€“ Speed, Spectacular Catch, Route Running, Agility
    • Aug 20 โ€“ 24: Defense โ€“ Speed, Hit Power, Tackling, Man Coverage
    • Aug 24: Offensive Line, Special Teams and Overall Team Ratings

    Not only will each winner receive a boost in their attributes in Madden NFL 13, but theyโ€™ll also be immortalized with a special card in Madden Ultimate Team. Fans who collect the cards of every winning player will be able to add them to a collection which will unlock a special Madden Ultimate Team reward in Madden NFL 13.

    So the question is... Which QB deserves the highest awareness rating in Madden NFL 13?
    • Tom Brady
    • Peyton Manning
    • Drew Brees

    In case you missed it.

        45 TDs
        6 Interceptions
        QB rating of 122.5

        There is no one else in all of football who is more "aware" than that

        Alabama Crimson Tide
        Green Bay Packers

          Tom Brady, the man with the greatest pocket awareness of all times says otherwise.

              Just to add to the discussion -- I'm not sure how EA calculates it, but I would think that awareness for a QB would be a combination of pocket presence, ability to diagnose and beat pressure, and protecting the football.

              The latest football news, analysis, and rankings from PFF. Featuring data-driven rankings and stats for NFL, fantasy football, and the NFL Draft.


              PFF has the pressure state broken down by categories, then by an overall grade for 2011:

              TOP 3 QBs Avoiding Sacks
              Eli Manning
              Michael Vick
              Drew Brees

              TD to INT ratio under pressure
              Aaron Rodgers 4:0
              Andy Dalton 4:0
              Sam Bradford 2:0

              ^now this one is kind of a funny result, but I can see how they got there because int's are so weighted. These three graded out highest because they they zero INTs. Here's the next three on that list.

              Tom Brady - 8:2
              Drew Brees - 10:3
              Ben Roethlisberger - 6:2

              Completion % Under Pressure
              Drew Brees
              Tony Romo
              Jay Cutler

              Highest Overall Grade Against Pressure
              Eli Manning
              Drew Brees
              Cam Newton

              next two were
              Aaron Rodgers
              Tom Brady

              Now I'm surprised to see Cam graded out so high, but it had more to do with him seeing more overall pressure than Rodgers and Brady. Both best Cam in TD/INT ratio, but Cam did have a higher comp % under pressure than Rodgers and was sacked less than either, which ties into the forumla. Not sure I totally buy it, but it's something to think about. Maybe EA should tick up Cam's awareness a bit.

                  Drew Brees, there isn't anyone better at avoiding pressure without even moving more then a foot or 2 in the pocket.

                    Guess I'm the only one thinking it's Peyton.

                      I know it's cool to hate Brady now, but he deserves this if nothing else.

                        Too hard for me to decide. Therefore, I shall not vote.

                          The other Qb's can have these ratings, Rodgers still has the highest overall at 99 and last seasons MVP.

                            This is easy. It should be Aaron Rodgers, without question. He was #1 in the NFL against the blitz. And if I'm not mistaken, he was better against the blitz than he was without it. Guy is a surgeon.

                              Excellent info. I would also consider pre-snap adjustments to be part of awareness. Peyton Manning is the master of that.
