I don't see how he went from top rated tackle in game at 97 last yr to this yr the 6th rated?

I looked up his stats from last yr he only gave up 4 sacks the whole yr... Curious wonder how many the others gave up for yr and what kind of stats they have.

Jason Peters gave up 4 sacks in 1100+ snaps, Tyron. Smith gave up 2 in nearly the same amount of snaps.

Whitworth gave up zero sacks, 4 hits and only 8 pressures all season.

Him having only 1 point higher pass block than Peters is a joke.

I don't buy it for a second. I can play a ranked match against any team on the game only for our revered oline to give up sack after sack!

Maybe it's because we're limited to 88 strength at highest on our oline? (Dunno why)

I hear ya. Not even so much being a Dallas fan, but just the fact that a dominant/great oline hasn't been represented properly and would really add a whole new dimension to Madden, if done right

I'm pretty positive Tyron Smith is not far behind in these ratings, but seriously, is there another tackle you would want to start a team with? As a 4 year starter in the league, he's only 24...let that sink in. His stats(not giving up sacks and starts in the league) are right up there with Joe Thomas, just much younger and I could argue way more athletic with more room to groom his game.

His 88 strength from last year needs to go up!
