Madden NFL 17 Team Ratings - NFC (Overall, Offense & Defense)

[brza37]

PFF stats and grades are completely separate entities. The stats, like pressure percentage, time to throw etc, are objective and are very valuable. The grades are not objective or transparent and are generally done without knowledge of assignements. But thats a whole other debate.
Its possible to use the PFF stats without putting faith into PFF grades.

For the sake of argument though, if EA uses PFF grades heavily for their ratings why is the Titans' defense ranked top 10 in Madden but they are 17th in front-seven and 29th in secondary according to PFF preseason previews? Cardinals who are 15th in front-seven and 2nd in secondary are ranked bottom 10.
