Madden 09 Player and Team Ratings

[Matt Diesel]

The defensive depth charts looks like they are only for the 4-3. ie you would have the 1st string MLB as one ILB and the second string as the other ILB. I guess the third string backs up both? Conclusion: It does not look like thare is an ILB spot for Ds that use them.

I really dont 'get' the ratings. Shouldnt the 'worse' person in the league be rated a 1 and the best a 99? If everyone is rated 65+, whats the point of having a 100 point scale for ratings? They really need to find another way to rate the players. You cant quantify everything about a player.

And Brady Quinn an 81? Must be because his handsomeness rating is pulling up his other ratings.

Yeah, I've always wondered why EA has all the players rated so high. It gets to the point where an 80 is considered bad.

I would have liked to have seen what Josh Cribbs was rated.

overall the lions ratings are pretty good. The word in camp is that Lenon will stay at MLB so Dizon and learn and Alex Lewis will start at OLB opposite of Sims.

Raiders rated 71 overall? C'mon!

Oh well, looks like Fargas is finally getting some love at 85 overall, and Asomugha is a 96, so I guess it's all good. Jemarcus is a little low at 82, considering Brady Quinn is an 81, but I'm liking it.

Also... Aqib Talib only an 80?

David Garrad w/ 78 Awr and D. Mcnabb 83 Awr! Total disrespect for the game and Black QBs.

Oh please since when is an 83 a bad rating. Also Talib an 80? That's ridiculous, The only rookies who should be in the 80s are the Top 5. No way Quinn deserves to be an 81, more like a 75 IMO.

He's lucky to even have an 80. Im so pumped for my Jets. Pasta let me know that Gholston has an 85 speed and Keller has an 89 speed at TE
