Other than their Oline and Revis, the rest of them sucked last year and the 8-8 record represents that not the playoff appearance via the backdoor.

I agree. I'm guessing this team will be pretty over rated in Madden until in-season roster updates

Fair bit of Vikings love there with most being improved on last season..

(Position - Name - OVR - Rank)

QB Brett Favre - 92 - 6th
RB Adrian Peterson - 98 - 2nd
WR Sidney Rice - 89 - 10th
LT Bryant McKinnie - 90 - 10th
LG Steve Hutchinson - 97 - 1st

LE Ray Edwards - 85 - 8th
RE Jared Allen - 99 - 1st
DT Kevin Williams - 97 - 1st
ROLB Chad Greenway - 88 - 6th

K Ryan Longwell - 92 - 4th

That's a lot of top 10 talent at each position considering most positions have upto and in some cases at least 50 players.

Thanks to Salbowski for pointing out the 2 I missed

haynesworth played terrible last year. and yes, shaub IS better than big ben.

Wow, they're stacked. Not suprised, they battered the Packers (twice), hammered the Cowboys in the playoffs and dominated the Saints in the NFC champ game.

Just looked again, they also have Ray Edwards on the list of top LE's, Longwell on the K list and you have to think Harvin (ROTY) would be rated quite well also.

Another thing I hate is why 3-4 OLBs are always rated higher than 4-3 OLBs just because they get sacks. I don't think it's a very fair comparison but Madden seems to be rated on Sportscenter highlights and 3-4 OLB getting sacks (often without any contact with an Olineman) makes it into sportscenter more than a 4-3 OLB making a good tackle. Just another reason to have formation, system based ratings for positions. (cover2 CBs v man CBs, NT v DT, 3-4 OLBs v 4-3 OLBs).

MLB - Patrick Willis - 99 - 1st
TE - Vernon Davis - 96 - 3rd
P - Andy Lee - 94 - 2nd
RB - Frank Gore - 93 - 5th
DT - Aubrayo Franklin - 90 - 7th

Beautiful!!!
