I hope the full defensive ratings reveal is separated by position and not all on one excel spreadsheet... I'm very surprised Mario Williams cracked the top 10. I figured he would be outside of the top 10 until he produced but I see Donny decided to give him the benefit of the doubt (not saying I agree with that). I would put JPP in front of Mario until we see how he plays. If he starts the season off the way he did last year then start moving him up to the 97 overall.

Not much too complain about in the ratings here IMO. All I can say is I hope I won't be playing the 49er's a couple times a year over the first few seasons of my CCM.

Re: Madden NFL 13 Ratings - Top 10 Defensive Players

TBH, no player should be a 99. A 98 is good enough for him.

Nnamdi Asomugha does not make the list but Mario Williams does?
Jesus.

I seriously hate these ratings arguments because it's just he said she said. Mario is one of the best pass rushers in the league. Nnamdi? The guy got TORCHED last year. He got completely exposed after leaving oakland system and actually getting thrown at for a change. Nnamdi doesn't even deserve a 90+ but I'm sure he'll get it.

The only thing Peterson does well is return punts. He couldn't cover in college and still can't in the nfl. Some of these arguments are just way off.

Justin Smith was a monster last year. There's more to it than stats. It's an apples to oranges comparison anyway. Justin Smith is a 5 technique- deals with double teams all game.

Yeah but is a 5 tech honestly valuable enough to be rated that high? That's my only concern. Justin's a fantastic player.

Re: Madden NFL 13 Ratings - Top 10 Defensive Players

I'm a giants fan who sees a ton of jets games also cause I'm from NYC an I can say that revis took a step back last year albeit a very small step cause he's still the best corner in the league but people did throw at him a lot more than 2 years ago so for madden I don't understand him being the highest rated defensive player... An if ngata and reed are gonna be in the top ten than Suggs better at least be on the list ahead of them both (injured or not)

Re: Madden NFL 13 Ratings - Top 10 Defensive Players

Revis' stats back up the all the hype of, "Revis Island." When quarterbacks threw his way their QB rating averaged out to be 45.6. He was targeted 85 times and only 35 passes were completed. He is the best CB and defender in the NFL. Is he human? Sure and you could see that when Stevie Johnson had a good game against Revis and pulled in nine catches for 77 yards and a score, but he shuts down premier receivers (Brandon Marshal, Wes Welker, Vincent Jackson, Ect.) on a constant basis. Its not hard to see why he is best defender in Madden.

10. Mario Williams - OVR 97
9. Ed Reed - OVR 97
8. Troy Polamalu - OVR 97
7. Haloti Ngata - OVR 97
6. Julius Peppers - OVR 97
5. Justin Smith - OVR 98
4. Jared Allen - OVR 98
3. Patrick Willis - OVR 98
2. DeMarcus Ware - OVR 99
1. Darrelle Revis - OVR 99
I'm surprised Jared Allen is still considered a top 10 guy. I'd argue that everyone behind him on this list is better than him.

??? He did just have 22 sacks last season.

[airlyle]

He did lead the league in sacks last year. Also I think he is a fantastic player. I don't think he is the best at his position right now though. As I said before 6 sacks came in his 2 games against Detroit. 3.5 sacks came in one game against Chicago. As a Lions fan I have seen a lot of him but am not afraid of going against Jared Allen.

How did other individuals do against those teams??? I find it funny that you state that he had 6 sacks in 2 games againt the Lions last year, you are a Lions fan, and that you arent afraid of him.... He had 6 sacks in 2 games against them!

I agree. Revis has taken a small step back. He still generally shuts receivers down. But I remember the times when he would give up 1 catch in a game for 7 yards. Still the best corner in the league. And after Asomugha's performance last year, there's really no debate about it anymore. Hands down he's the best.
