So Super Bowl winning Eli should be dropped 2 points to 95 after having a monster year, but Big Ben is fine right there?

lol Steeler fans

Are authentic throwing motions GONE this year? Philip Rivers' throws looked pretty generic and over-arm

[THE YAMA]

A little to high overall. Surprised at how high Big Ben was.

Why not just give everybody a 99 rating to make them happy?

Disappointed in these

The video wasn't up when I posted. I just finished watching it.

Are they really going to let fans get on facebook and vote on which QB should be tops in speed, throwing power, accuracy, and awareness?

Wow... that's all I have to say... wow...


edit - I'm really hoping I misunderstood that.

Big Ben also won 2 SB's!! I wouldn't say he declined since then, and Eli is proving he is clutch. TBH, I would've had Big Ben around a 94 ovr before the season and Eli around a 92 ovr. So, now they are tied for me. Talking about successes of last year, Big Ben led our team to 12-4, while Eli led his to 9-7.

I don't get how Philip Rivers is rated so highly. If I'm not mistaken, he was 3rd in interceptions last year and had an off year altogether.
I'm fine with every other rating, wished they were more spread out but the NFL is a quarterback league now

I'm ok on the overalls. Only 9/32 starting QBs have a rating 90 or above -- I can live with that.

Like you though, I would've liked to have seen some key ratings simply b/c too much emphasis is placed on the overall. And they're really missing an opportunity to blow out the consistency system. That was supposed to be a big deal last year. If it's still in the game (and it is), why aren't these being touted as another way to differentiate players? I could live with Vick's 89 overall if it's offset with a low consistency, but they're not placing enough emphasis on that.
