Madden NFL 15 - Complete Player and Team Ratings for AFC and NFC South

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Complete Player and Team Ratings for AFC and NFC South

They both suck, seems pretty close to me, Glennon should probably be lower though, but I can live with it.

I just think the gap between the Fitzpatricks and Glennons of the world compared to guys like Luck and Cam needs to be much much bigger.

Glennon has a cannon, but his accuracy numbers should be all be lower, along with stuff like throw on the run.

Throw on the run sure. But if you think his accuracy from the pocket is that much worse (if worse at all) than Cam then you're fooling yourself.

I can't see Cam and Luck's ratings right now, but I know what Glennons are. They are too high across the board, and Cam and Luck are both around that tier right after the elite QBs, whereas all Glennon has proven to this point is that he's a bottom of the barrel starter with a strong arm. And Fitz has proven himself to be a bottom of the barrel starter as well.

Glennon
68 AWR, 95 thp, 79 short, 77 medium, 86 deep, 87 playaction, 75 on run

Cam
78 AWR, 97 thp, 85 short, 81 medium, 70 deep, 90 play action, 95 on run

Luck
81 AWR, 92 thp, 89 short, 84 medium, 74 deep, 78 play action, 87 run

Seems reasonable enough.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Complete Player and Team Ratings for AFC and NFC South

I can't for the .life of me figure out how he got the deep accuracy ratings.Looks like Case Keenum has the best at 90 followed by Matt Cassell at 86,while Brees is 81,Cam,Luck,Ben are in the 70's and Flacco in the 60's to name a few.Bizzaro world???

I just don't think Glennon should be that close in short and medium, and shouldn't be that ridiculously good on the deep ball either. He's thrown some of the worst deep balls I've ever seen.

And Luck was rated as one of the best play action QBs in the NFL last year while Glennon was poor in that regard, yet Glennon has a huge advantage there.

At the end of the day, I just think there needs to be a much wider range in the ratings.

And the spreadsheet says Fitzpatrick throws a better deep ball than Luck and Cam too, doesn't it? The guys arm is too weak to even throw it down the field.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Complete Player and Team Ratings for AFC and NFC South

I see he uses PFF and for instance Matt Cassell did complete 9 of 15 deep passes he attempted last season.I'm quite sure career wise he's much lower.15 is a very low number to go off of and there are many variables that need to be taken in consideration.

In Madden terms,a qb with 86 accuracy would likely make a person attempt more than one or two passes a game with him.Online Case Keenum would be gunning downfield to Andre Johnson at a rate that isn't logical.I know there isn't more history to go by on Keenum or Glennon.

Maybe deep ball accuracy needs to be on a tighter and somewhat lower scale altogether.

I feel like he doesn't understand the basics of just... overall attempts. Why the hell is Flacco that low when he throws rainbows and his deep throws are usually very good? He may have a slightly poorer throwing percentage because he attempts it more often because it does work. I highly doubt if you asked Case Keenum to do that he'd be capable. Pretty annoying if you ask me.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Complete Player and Team Ratings for AFC and NFC South

If you have seen Keenum play (in person, because its hard to judge on something you saw on a screen), he throws one of the most beautiful deep balls in the league. He is also very accurate on the deep ball. So I'm happy to see that the ratings show that.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Complete Player and Team Ratings for AFC and NFC South

I've always thought that was a strong point in Flacco's game.

Eli had an unusually bad year with deep accuracy but how many frustration throws,desperation throws,receivers not positioning themselves/breaking off,coverage.Brees was a little lower than usual last year but was the best over several years.

Each throw would have to be watched and analyzed.Typically shorter throws are can be more accurately interpreted just by looking at the numbers.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Complete Player and Team Ratings for AFC and NFC South

That will probably be addressed in the first roster update. The Titans front 7 was difficult to project at first due to the switch from the 4-3 to 3-4. At first, it almost looked like Jurrell Casey would be a NT and Morgan would be a LE, but now it appears that Casey will play DE, but it still could change.

In addition, Jackie Battle is taking reps as the starting FB (rather than HB). Looks pretty good, so he'll probably be switched. Good call, that guy's a bruiser.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Complete Player and Team Ratings for AFC and NFC South

Aaron Rodgers: 92 Short, 88 Med, 90 Deep, 87 Play Action, 88 Throw on Run, 93 awareness
Drew Brees: 97 Short, 91 Med, 81 Deep, 86 Play Action, 76 Throw on Run, 98 awareness

Does that really merit Rodgers being 2 Overall Ratings higher?

It's probably Rodgers athleticism doing it.

MLB Akeem Dent doesnt even play for the Falcons anymore. They traded him back in April... Really EA?!

Yeah the rosters aren't up to date or final. Im sure there will be a day one roster download.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Complete Player and Team Ratings for AFC and NFC South

Shoot, you ain't lying, LOL.

But hey, a masterful comeback against the Chiefs and their stout defense and to Luck's defense, 5 of those 7 interceptions came at a time where Kansas City and New England absolutely knew the Colts were abandoning the run, LOL.

Anyways, still, not a Power Run squad.

Stout defense before they lost several starters all at once and weren't able to rush the clock out due to their MVP candidate Charles going down as well.....

No way. Cam's deep accuracy needs to be higher.... his AWR should be higher since he's in his 4th season now.....his PA needs to be about 93 because he excels at it. Cam himself should be a 92 or 93 just like he ended the 2013 season. It's bull**** that he's back at where he started 2012 after having his best season in TDs, accuracy and wins.
