    Why do people whine about Ratings if "Ratings don't matter?"

    The only thing I continue to hear from the EA haters is "blah blah blah ratings don't matter A punter just ran for 600 yds blah blah" yet in the very next thread they are posting "ZOMG Eli Manning is a 97? What? No way he's better than T.J Yates omg."

    My point is Madden looks very good this yearand I think we need to stop actively looking for things to bash EA/Madden for.

    The Hipocricy is strong in this one

      Foremost, your username is awesome.

      Second, the ratings absolutely do matter.

      Third, I can understand any fuss about ratings this on the grounds that a user-edited roster cannot be taken into Connected Careers mode, and there is no meaningful player editing within that mode either.

        Ratings definitely make a difference. Individual skill ratings anyway. Crying this way or that about OVR's seems silly since it doesn't tell you an awful lot.

          I think the term "rating do not matter" is very vague. While ratings DO matter, there are things that do not have any effect. You can have a guy with 98 block shedding and say 90 finesse, but never seem to get any pressure against a T that has say 80 blocking

            Because Ratings should matter.

                Ratings didn't seem matter on All-Madden. But the problem that still remains is that too many key attributes are not spread out enough from player to player in certain positions so stand outs don't actually stand out as much as they should.

                  Thats it right there. If the ratings were spread, you'd see a drastic difference on field. Still waiting on some type of global editor.

                    Not to mention that people complaining that ratings don't matter are likely not the same people complaining about who is rated where...

                    But yes, ratings need to be way more spread out, then they would matter MORE.

                        What an ignorant post

                        ...Maybe because they're different people....

                        Maybe because some ratings matter and others don't
