No he didn't. The camera was in the endzone at the defensive end focusing on Aaron. It was shooting through the defensive huddle. It looks bad though.

I said he deserved it. But I understand why people would think he doesn't since win-loss (fair or not) gets placed on the qb's shoulders

Here is a thought that I think many of us gamers don't look at when discussing ratings. Tom Brady is 99 Overall in today's standards. When EA is putting together the rosters and decide who gets what ratings they are basing everyone off today's standards.

They look at who's in the league. They aren't basing it on all time this is madden nfl 12 (or whatever annual release you choose) They base it off the player skill and performance among their peers at the specific point in time. Can anybody argue Tom Brady hasn't been the leagues top player overall putting together the last few seasons?

Am I the only one who thinks that the ratings EA gives their players are too high?

Very rarely in my opinion, should a player be given a 99 rating for anything. Wouldn't lower ratings allow the players to perform in a manner emulating more closely to real life; less arcadish?

Why not give ratings in the high 80s or something and rate lesser players lower, instead of giving these perfect 99s?

Man, I hate the player models. They look huge. Jordy Nelson looks like a linebacker, the linebackers look like DTs. Ugh.. I may enjoy NCAA more than Madden this year based on what I've seen.

No, he did. You see AJ Hawk, Erik Walden, Jarrett Bush, among others as he approaches the huddle. He walks into the Packers D, and it switches to the Offense as he enters the huddle and the camera rotates.

Look I give them credit to finally getting around to a professional representation of how football is shown on Sunday, so it adds a "new" element to Madden, but come on guys there as been no address to the gameplay issues on a whole, none at all.

Yeah your right. I thought you were referring to the Patriots Defensive huddle. Which actually has the offensive players on the field(previously mentioned.)
