Madden NFL 13 Player Ratings - Top 10 Running Backs

[Gaycandybacon]

Honestly anyone of the top 10 guys can be better than their Overall Rating.. It baffles me when people **** themselves because everyones a 90 OVR in the top 10. You don't think there is 10 RB's in the league that are that good? Do you know the depth there is at RB in our National Football League.. Where ever you look theres tons of running back talent. Sure there is some crazyness over the ratings. But If you're fed up with the ratings you mys as well go to Donny Moore personally, slap him the face and take his job. OH chris johnson isn't in the top 10 ?!?!?!?!?!? Whipity dooo. You don't see the guy running over people. He's an elusive back, pure speed back. w/e rating he is he's god damn good still. Again don't let the OVR fool you. The nessisary adjustments will be made to the game if the player perfoms at a high level/low level during the season anyways.

Then there are 23 more players before you get to McCoy with an average of 6.6. Now you can look at average anyway you want to. But he is 33 in average per reception. No where near the best

Shady is not the best in the league yet, but based off of last years production, he belongs in the top 5. He is top 5 all purpose yards, finished in the top 5 in rushing yards. And number 1 in TD's. Numbers speak for themselves.

FWIW ESPN has a rating system for players and they ranked Peterson 1 (by a large margain) and McCoy, Rice, and Foster tied for second. Again its all subjective, but it looks appropriate in my eyes.

Most complete back in football is Arian Foster, he can lead the league in rushing, he has some of the best hands in the NFL, hes a smooth runner who can make sick cuts that goes fot TDs, has top end speed, he blocks, and hes not a selfish player, he wants his team to win. My top 10: Foster, MJD, Peterson, Forte, McCoy, Johnson, Charles, Gore, Rice, and Benson. Turner is overrated and getting older, Jackson is getting older.

How I see it should be.

CJ should be top 10, but other than that I think these look great. Everyone is where they should be for the most part, a lot better than the QB ratings(*cough* Eli *cough cough*).
