Madden NFL 13 Player Ratings - Top 10 Quarterbacks

[berad88]

EA will tweak ratings during preseason and before the game comes out right? If I am correct on that then what is the big deal with releasing ratings and freaking out about them?
Fact is they are way to high unfortunately. Not even sure why EA uses a 99 point scale if they are going to rate so many players on the high end.

How can anybody consider Cutler a top 10 quarterback? 13 TDs and 7 INTs with 58% passes completed. That is a top 10 quarterback? Cutler should be rated about a 79. Low 80s at the highest.

Stafford on the other hand, 41 TDs, 16 INTs and over 5000 yards passing with 63.5% passes completed. He should easily be 5 overall points better than Cutler at the absolute least.

I'd say that the 10 quarterbacks rated already should be:

Aaron Rodgers - 99
Tom Brady - 96
Drew Brees - 96
Peyton Manning - 91
Eli Manning - 91
Ben Roethlisberger - 90
Phillip Rivers - 88
Matthew Stafford - 87
Michael Vick - 85
Tony Romo - 84

and even on EA's crazy scale where everybody is a 90+, Eli Manning should still only be a 95 on their scale. 97 is a rating that should represent guys like John Elway and Dan Marino. Eli is maybe a hall of famer thanks to his super bowls but he is no Elway/Marino.

Cam Newton is not on that list because nobody knows if he was a one year stats wonder. As silly as that sounds anything is possible. Like look at vick two years ago compared to last year. It was like two totally different guys. Cam has another great year this year and you will see him on that list this time next year.

EA needs to overhaul their (football) rating system; there are relatively minor differences between great players and bad players. I would suggest a letter grade rating system--instead of a numerical system--so that we can see more difference(s) between players.

I guess they didn't get Joe Flacco's memo about being the best QB?

I'll be here all week.

Not the place for a "real" football talk, but Fred Jackson was a big part of that 5-2 start also.

So they r saying that rogers is as good as montan a and all the other greats...go away with the rating system and utilize what 2k8 had. Atleast not overrate everyone...manning a 91??? Really...clutch ya but a 97??? No.

Yeah, it didn't look too good but that could have been an early build (although I don't know why they would advertise this late with a beta build or whatever).

The demo will be out soon enough and will tell the tale.
