I guess I will go against the grain and say that if Peterson stays healthy, he is one of the premiere backs in the game and should be rated as such. I can see the argument for keeping his rating a bit lower than what it is now, but I think the argument for why it should be where it is...that's a pretty convincing argument as well IMO.

Adrian Peterson might have broken the single season rushing record if not for his injury. I don't see how anyone can complain about his ratings. He had one of the most amazing seasons in the history of the NFL.

The RBs who warrant the highest ratings are Tomlinson, Westbrook and Peterson. I am a Cowboys fans, die hard, but I will admit, Westbrook is the 2nd best back in the game. Hands down.

All non Dallas players should be 75 OVR!!! They all suck!!!

JK!

I think the debate about who is over/under rated is pointless until EA changes the way they rate players. Way too many upper 90s ratings.

I fail to see where MBIII is over rated based on that fact. Grant is a 1 year wonder until he proves otherwise! AP should have been held back slightly in the OVR until he proves he can do it again too..

Again, point is mute, until the ratings are changed to have less high 90s rated players. Not saying there is not any, but Madden has way too many 96+ players!

I really miss the days when there were some varying ratings in Madden. Go pop in Madden 2004 (i think this was the last one to have it right). Serviceable players are in the 70s, good players 80s and you had to be something special to be in the 90s. Along came Madden 2005 and all of the sudden players with a rating of 80 are pretty much the worst starters on your team. A guy with a rating of 75...no chance he sees the field.
