I am just now beginning Season 3 of my Connected Franchise with the Colts. I have noticed something very strange in my Connected Franchise. Some big name QBs overall rating has dropped drastically...Tom Brady, Tony Romo, Philip Rivers, and Drew Brees all have an OVR between 67-72. Has this happened for anyone else? I find it kind of odd since all of those teams made it to play playoffs in my franchise, and put up pretty solid numbers all year.

The worst that I've seen is Eli Manning dropping to 69 after 1 freaking year. Two time Super Bowl winner - two time Super Bowl MVP, and this happens??? Unbelievable.

This happens in offline CFM. They've made changes to online CFM to fix that.

Have you looked at their confidence rating, that has a big effect.

Brady, Romo and Eli Manning and Drew Brees are all old to the point where you would expect to see decline by 2016, where you are in year three.

It's because the simulated stats are messed up, QB's don't get close to their goals and regress rapidly.

I'm in year three and all of the present day starters, aside from rookies, are declining. Most are free agents too. :/

Yeah, it's best to avoid offline CFM for now considering the sim is completely buggered. I had Cutler in free agency with 69 OVR at the beginning of year 3 and Drew Brees (70 OVR) became the backup for Colt McCoy (78 OVR).

Ok thanks for the reply, I guess I'll do a Online Franchise then for the time being.
