Madden NFL 12 Has Rated Four Players at 99. Overrated? Who Missed the Cut?

[tonybologna]

I certainly disagree with these ratings. I still think Manning is the best QB in the NFL. If any QB deserves a 99 rating it should be Peyton. Gates at a 99 overall is too high. I might be a little biased but Witten has shown he's the best TE in the NFL over the past few seasons.

I don't think Witten deserves a 99 rating but he should be rated somewhat higher than all TE's. I think he's been a 94 default rating the past 2-3 Madden games. He probably should be a 95-96 overall. His catch rating at 90 is way low for him.

He rarely drops a ball or fumbles either. His catch rating should definitely be higher than any TE in the NFL. Brady at QB should be right up there for sure. You can't say Rodgers should be higher than him just because he won the Super Bowl last season. It's what you've done over time that gets you these high ratings.

Having said that, Rodgers will probably be the top rated QB within the next couple years. Donnie Moore needs to study these ratings a bit more. I think he's gotten them wrong but hey we can adjust to our liking so no bigggy!

Some are missing the point of Witten/Gates debate.

Witten is the best TE in the league, Gates is not. He is just the best receiving tight end, he is practically a wide receiver playing tight end. Witten does everything a tight end should do better then anyone it the game.

[HolyCrap]

Gates shouldn't be 99 hes always hurt and he lacks skills as an elite blocker at the tight end position.

Troy should not be a 99 either he can not man cover anyone at all. He was no where to be found during the Super Bowl. He makes a lot of plays but, he also costs the Steelers a lot of plays when he guesses wrong the elite QBs are able to manipulate Troys lack of coverage skills.

So then every player on the Packers should be a 99? No, winning a super bowl should not affect your rating. You're the same player regardless. Maybe his clutch rating should increase, but nothing else.

tom brady and antiono gates overrated!!!!

[scfootballfan]

How is Tom Brady over rated? He has done more with less his whole career, with the exception of the 07 season when he finally got a REAL #1 WR and all he did was throw 50 TDs.

One word. W A D E...........

At any rate I'm not from Dallas and I'm no fan of bad football. Such as the garbage that Dallas put on display last season. I have however stayed at a Holliday Inn and that makes me an expert on my own opinion......
