Madden NFL 13 Ratings - Top 10 Defensive Players

[brettmickey]

I hope the full defensive ratings reveal is separated by position and not all on one excel spreadsheet... I'm very surprised Mario Williams cracked the top 10. I figured he would be outside of the top 10 until he produced but I see Donny decided to give him the benefit of the doubt (not saying I agree with that). I would put JPP in front of Mario until we see how he plays. If he starts the season off the way he did last year then start moving him up to the 97 overall.

Not much too complain about in the ratings here IMO. All I can say is I hope I won't be playing the 49er's a couple times a year over the first few seasons of my CCM.

I seriously hate these ratings arguments because it's just he said she said. Mario is one of the best pass rushers in the league. Nnamdi? The guy got TORCHED last year. He got completely exposed after leaving oakland system and actually getting thrown at for a change. Nnamdi doesn't even deserve a 90+ but I'm sure he'll get it.

The only thing Peterson does well is return punts. He couldn't cover in college and still can't in the nfl. Some of these arguments are just way off.

Yeah but is a 5 tech honestly valuable enough to be rated that high? That's my only concern. Justin's a fantastic player.

I'm a giants fan who sees a ton of jets games also cause I'm from NYC an I can say that revis took a step back last year albeit a very small step cause he's still the best corner in the league but people did throw at him a lot more than 2 years ago so for madden I don't understand him being the highest rated defensive player... An if ngata and reed are gonna be in the top ten than Suggs better at least be on the list ahead of them both (injured or not)

Revis' stats back up the all the hype of, "Revis Island." When quarterbacks threw his way their QB rating averaged out to be 45.6. He was targeted 85 times and only 35 passes were completed. He is the best CB and defender in the NFL. Is he human? Sure and you could see that when Stevie Johnson had a good game against Revis and pulled in nine catches for 77 yards and a score, but he shuts down premier receivers (Brandon Marshal, Wes Welker, Vincent Jackson, Ect.) on a constant basis. Its not hard to see why he is best defender in Madden.
