Very quick maths about QB throwing ratings in Madden NFL 17 (thanks to Shaun Mason for getting all the ratings in a spreadsheet, that made my doing this pretty easy!): - OVR THP SAC MAC DAC PAC TOR AWR μ 71.05 88.51 82.49 79.12 74.18 71.81 77.99 67.36 σ 9.24 4.82 5.79 6.49 5.91 9.53 4.52 14.72 I don't have this data for Madden NFL 16 quarterback ratings, but I can tell you the following about comparing these values to those generated by the Madden NFL 15 quarterback ratings: Average OVR is significantly lower than the default roster of M15 (74.57) and σ is higher than M15 as well (8.70). This means you will see lower-rated QBs by OVR in the general case in M17 and also a wider range of OVR ratings. That said, the average rating for every single one of the ratings above is higher in M17 than in M15. Average THP is almost a full point higher. MAC, TOR, and AWR each have higher σ values, so you will see a wider range of values in these individual ratings (in particular, σ for MAC is almost a full point greater). The other ratings all have slightly lower σ values, so you'll see slightly more bunched together ratings. First-level impression of this data? Tiburon has indeed redone the OVR formula and it is significantly different. Even with a higher average and lower variance in the important individual ratings by-and-large, the new OVR appears to be very sensitive to small changes, so you will see more differentiation between players at an at-a-glance level. None of this has any implications on how the game will actually play, obviously. If I were to speculate, it is likely M17 is tuned very differently from M15 to account for higher individual ratings.

Glad I could help.=)

It's fixed. Someone asked for edit permission to fix the headers and then filtered it.=(

If you follow my twitter you may have already seen this, but an interesting note about coverage stats. This year there are only 72 players with 80 or above man coverage and only 134 with 80 or above zone coverage. In comparison Madden 16 started with 107 80+ man coverage players and 198 with 80+ zone coverage.

It appears the coverage ratings have gone down, but curious if this is a response to pressure coming quicker now.

Yes, they had a few key injuries but aside from Scandrick the D was healthy and they got no pressure (tied 25th in sacks), were dead last in Takeaways, and were bottom 10 in the league in yards per play passing as well as rushing. Yards per play is a much better indicator of team efficiency than total yards. There is really no reason they should have the second best roster in the game.

So which player should be lower than 80? Romo, Dez, Witten, Smith, Frederick, Lee, Scandrick, Crawford, Collins, Martin, Elliott, Lawernce, McClain?

I'm not completely disagree with with you but, everyone knows injuries to Romo and Dez played a huge role in going from 11 wins with them to 4 without.

Most of the 80+ overall guys are on offense. The defense has less as it should.

If key players stay healthy and they go 4-12 this year I'll shake your hand and say you where right. I just don't see that happening

It may also have something to do with overall coverage being better.

Redskins

Players underrated

D. Jax 84… Still the best deep threat in the game 88 at the least
Brandon Sheriff- 78… started all 16 games and didn’t get any better from his rating last season? Might have gone down
Preston Smith-77… Lead all Rookies in sacks
B. Breeland-81 probably the best player in the secondary
Will Compton- 70 for a starting LB who lead the team in tackles? 75-77

Players overrated

J. Norman 94.. I don’t know about that but still top 5 IMO
Trent Murphy 81.. Dude hasn’t done anything. 71 at best
Matt Jones 77.. I don’t know about that..
