That's exactly why FBG ratings will never be in madden.

For the sake of all Eagles fans, I hope he slumps, too
He did have a pretty incredible rookie season aside from that catch, though.

It's funny because I know a lot of people, outside of here at least, don't know or understand that speed has been scaled back. I was on a Chiefs website and they had a post about Jamaal Charles being the third highest RB and a lot of the comments were about how shocked they were that he only had 92 speed. I just hope that if JC is 92 for speed it means that guys that were in the 60's are now in the 50's and 40's and they didn't just take the guys above 85 and bring them down a bit.

To be fair, nearly all NFL athletes over value their talents as it relates to Madden ratings. I don't think that EA takes Bryant's comments that serious because if it were up to him, he would have 99 throw power and accuracy as well.

Andrew Luck and OBJ in the top 5 at their position? thats really surprising to me. they are still up and coming players. what are they gonna be rated once they break out? 99? other then that it seems alright.

I liked some of the responses better....

"you ran a 4.52"

"man quit crying you lucky they even got u that high"

"don't like it? Run faster."

Some people get it.......all hope is not lost

They (EA) need to include "Player Type" and Scheme of team they're currently on because this impacts the players OVR and the other which changes when you enter CFM.

If they haven't tuned the "Route Run" a lot of folk going to be mad at the constant "instant open" separation this rating creates when over 70.

Wish they included something this year to make "Top" players play differently than the average player.

I want to have to be forced to have to double-team Megatron when playing against the AI.

We shall see!!!

I don't get why there are so many people down on OBJ.
