All Ratings Talk Here Per Millennium

[salbowski]

Where's the evidence that these twitter posts are;

a) even referring to Deangelo (Hall) and not another Hall.

b) that the number 77 was referring to Halls overall rating and not another rating like man coverage....

I would believe that the initial ratings are based off of the previous years efforts when the ships.

It's not unrealstic to have unbiased fans of specific teams notice some "wrong" ratings. I would never expect the madden crew to get every single person on every single squad correct. But if people are able to intelligently make a case for a rating they believe could be higher or lower, why is it a problem? The problem is that people voice their opinions without any tact or reason.

I don't understand what the issue is with Brady. Has he proved that he cannot play at the same level that he used to? No, so you cannot say he should be lowered just because he got injured. By that logic every single player that gets hurt in franchise mode should drop 6 points when they come back from their injuries, but guess what they don't. Until proven other wise Brady is still one of the top 2 elite players in the NFL.

i think the problem is we really dont know how these stretched ratings measure up...it seem weird to complain about them now when I have no clue how they intend to seperate the "average" for "elite"

I didn't belittle their opinions when it came to colored gloves and such..... You are correct...if the ratings seem off, we can change 'em when we get the game...good enough for me. No need to get in a tizzy.

Are you referring to me?

Out of all the things to complain about, I never understood why people give a damn about player ratings. EA gives us the ability to edit the rosters, and for all of you franchise realism out there (myself included) don't feel like it's "unrealistic" to edit a player rating to your liking. If you feel like someone should be higher or lower, THEN DO IT YOURSELF.

We have that ability.

Brady has also not proven that he can play at that previous level.

As for the dropping players in franchise who get injured, I think for major injuries like that they probably should be lowered.

Jerseys, helmets, hand towels, and face masks can all be 100% accurate. There is a definitive right and wrong in that department.

Ratings is all a matter of opinion, ratings will never be "fixed". That can't and won't ever happen.

There seems to be some assumption amongst Redskins fans that he only played poorly in Oakland and was some sort of good cornerback in Atlanta.

He wasn't. He constantly got beat by anyone with any sort of route-running ability.

He has all the speed and talent in the world, but I don't think one half season of good performance should out-rule an entire career of severely underperforming expectations.

I don't know about everyone else but I don't want to have to go through and edit every player just because EA got them wrong.
