My hope is that they changed the "dice roll" formula to where a 90 in DAC is equivalent to 70 in last years game or something like that.

If Drew Brees is rated below 90, I'm not buying this game. J/K As for Tom Brady, we'll see how good he really is after these first 4 games, or is it the system. Remember Matt Cassel.

Spoiler alert: really really good

I will be severely disappointed when they reveal that Philip Rivers is still worse than Andy Dalton even though he was the only starter left standing in that Chargers offense and was making accurate throws in horrific pockets while Andy got to take tea breaks in his pocket while throwing to AJ Green, Tyler Eifert, Mohamed Sanu and Marvin Jones while handing off to Giovani Bernard and Jeremy Hill.

Brady is the best quarterback in the league in the way that Peyton Manning was the best QB in the league last year: reputation and past accomplishments. Brady is still a great QB, but he's not the best. Aaron Rodgers has been the best for years now. Russell Wilson, Ben Roethlisberger and Cam Newton all belong in Brady's air space in terms of being in the upper echelon of great QBs along with Drew Brees and Philip Rivers.

I agree with Rodgers over Brady for right now. He can do everything that Brady and more. He is Brady with more athleticism and maybe a little worse in those check down throws. But give me Brady all time (over everyone).

Just using the three QB's that were on both 16 and 17's list:

Aaron Rodgers

OVR: M16-99 M17-96
THP: M16-94 M17-98
SAC: M16-94 M17-96
MAC: M16-92 M17-94
DAC: M16-80 M17-90
TOR: M16-88 M17-95

Tom Brady

OVR: M16-97 M17-94
THP: M16-94 M17-94
SAC: M16-96 M17-98
MAC: M16-97 M17-98
DAC: M16-70 M17-84

Ben Roethlisberger

OVR: M16-95 M17-93
THP: M16-94 M17-95
SAC: M16-87 M17-95
MAC: M16-90 M17-96
DAC: M16-73 M17-90
STR: M16-85 M17-82

So the overalls are lower despite all three being better at everything across the board (and drastically better on DAC) sans Roethlisbergers STR and Brady's THP.

That's what I was thinking. So when they say there are less 90 overalls this year what does that even mean. All this guys might be 99 over or close to it in the old system.

At least with these guys the lower overall just seems to be number that is calculated different
