Glad to see there has been an update!

It just goes to show you that context is everything.

I've always found it funny that some players are genuinely concerned about their overall ratings in video games. As an NFL player, they have got a ton on their plate and just to think how a meaningless overall rating can tick them off...

I know you can't disclose who emailed you, but if Vince Wilfork and Ted Washington show up together to your place one day knocking on your door, bothered by their ratings, you're screwed.

Well, good thing I have a CCW permit in case they start trouble.

All levity aside, my usual response is enough to get most to either forget about it or attempt to understand. Imagine you were used to being told you are the best thing ever since 8th grade. It's no wonder some of these egos are huge. Maybe EA NEEDS to inflate those ratings to match. I think that trend will never be broken, so those wanting a true simulation will have to look elsewhere.

It's coming...

OK Dan, I'm sorry I don't understand what that means, "it's coming?"

Let's stick to the Madden roster ratings only, thanks.

Anyone else notice that since the large drop happened for cornerbacks that the CPU isn't generating enough simmed INTs in CFM? I am midway through year 1 and so many average QB's have yet to throw over 5 INTs (Flacco, Cutler, Kaepernick)... can't be fixed by lowering QB ratings or they will all get taken over by draft players.
