Cam doesnt belong on the list. Drew Brees belongs.

The deep accuracy is weird to me, I dunno why they aren't sticking with last years "qb inaccuracy feature"
The rating will function like it did last year, the number has just been raised but will reflect the same.

Cam had a pretty remarkable season. Something tells me Drew is right there below Russ

Sounds about right. lol
He's also average 4.1 YPC in two of those years (yuck) and fumbled 4 times in 187 attempts last year.

Some Packer fans act like he's a top tier running back.

The old overall system even if a player was a true 99, he wasn't really a 99 in our game, our ovr's now use all the ratings weighted properly based on what actually matters per position.

Yeah because 4.1 YPC is totally terrible what a bum, cast his worthless *** out of the league.


He's a power back not a speed back. So his YPC isn't going to be 5+. Also Lynch's YPC for his career was under 4 before he got to Seattle.

Steven Jackson, Roger Craig, Franco Harris, Warrick Dunn, Marcus Allen, eetc.. averaged 4.1 yds per carry for their career and a few of those are HOF RB's.

And McCarthy sat him down for fumbling last year too.

Some Packer fans don't make up the whole fanbase.

And he is being over rated from a Viking fan, clearly non-biased and I get it.

No need to go any further on this, it's going OT.

I touched on this a while back here http://www.operationsports.com/forum...r-list-44.html

Hopefully they adjust the length for 18.

Broncos fan who thinks Lacy is average at best. He can be good if he keeps his weight down. He hasn't really shown anything for you to put him with those names you listed.

If he plays at 2014 level most of his career he's a top 5 back in the league, that's what he was in 2014, last year? Not so much.

99 Awareness, 98 short AND medium accuracy.. seems about right. Only reason his OVR isnt as high is because his athleticism and throw on run is not that great, both in real life and in Madden. It's not always about "OMG his overall isnt 99, this is BS, madden sucks at rating guys." IMO he is quite correctly rated. His 84 deep accuracy might be a little low, but judging by the amount the Pats offense is designed to go deep (not much) I am totally fine with that rating.
Agreed. In my opinion people get too caught up in a players OVR number sometimes.

Edit: Someone stated the same above.

Not sure what the argument between Rodgers and Brady is about?

Brady had better awr, sac, mac that makes him the better pocket passer.

Rodgers has the mobilty that gives him the higher OVR.

Same reason Newton and Wilson have higher OVR than Brees. Look past the OVR guys.

Let's not forget 24th overall Ty Law, 65th overall Deion Branch, 42nd overall Rob Gronkowski, Hall of Fame no-name receiver Randy Moss, 32nd overall Ben Watson, 56th overall Shane Vereen. I mean, just loaded with terrible, undrafted day 3 players.
Not sure how drafting ty law (a cb) 24th and a RB Shane Vereen proves your point. Dion Branch left New England for Seattle and did very little. It's convenient to leave out how he made Welker a household name or Edelman who was a college qb into a pro bowler. Rodgers probably has more skill than Brady especially today. But I'd still take Brady in a one game scenario .

And you would lose.

He hasn't been in the league as long as the other backs. I'm just saying there were 2 or 3 HOFer's in the list I provided that averaged 4.1 yds per carry throughout their career. I didn't say Lacy is in the same echelon as they are at this point in his career.

So, two good years and one average year comes out to be average at best?

Eh, I'll agree to disagree on that note.

I think we can put him in the good category of RB's with still more to prove.

Id take Brady ... More wins, more rings 🤔
 
# 99 gr18 @ 07/21/16 10:13 PM
I'd say Rodgers.This is 2016.Rodgers has been better in recent years but did have a down year last year despite receiver issues.Brady was good but not great.No qb played at a phenomenal level last year.Not close to a 99 rating in Madden.

Peyton was great until his last season and a half and I do remember him making guys like Blair White and Jacob Tamme look really good when guys were hurt so I disagree with Brady being the only qb that has done that.

Brady is easily the best QB in the league. Has been for a while. Reminds me of the morons that think Curry is better than LeBron.
Couldn't have said it better myself
