Another obvious and downright clown rating is Arrestedberger, how can you even think he is a 95?

Romo is underrated if anything, all he did was have MVP numbers and add to his 97 career QB rating.

Ben - 92 QB rating for career
Eli - 82 QB rating for career (lol)
whatever drugs ur on I want some if you think Romo is underrated. Obviously a cowboy fan.

Care to give reasons/facts or just make erroneous claims and jokes?

The 97 QB rating is a fact, the playoff wins are part of the TEAM. Hence the reason a terrible QB like Eli can have 2 rings.

Wish they would've broken down the ratings more.. like their throw power and accuracy and stuff. I wonder if Big Ben is that high because of the new physical rating and him fitting his scheme...I want to see how their ratings break down though.. i bet that could shed some light on how their ratings are what they are.

I'd scale it up a little, maybe Rodgers at 95, but overall I agree.

The irony is that if you were to spread the ratings out a lot more, and remove so many players from the 90+ range, players would be more unique. A big reason players currently aren't is because so many of them are clustered around the same point range resulting in the same play.

Tony Romo is a 90 Overall???? BASED ON WHAT? Tony Romo has not proven himself as a winner or a clutch QB for years and has only reached the playoffs twice and has never made it past the first round of the playoffs.

Way to shorten my post as I explained why. The Bears were on their way to the playoffs and were close to locking up a playoff spot before Jay Cutler got injured. If Cutler didn't get injured, they would have been in the playoffs no doubt. Romo better than Cutler? Come talk to me when Romo becomes a clutch player and doesn't fail under pressure.

Just for the heck of it, this is how I think the ratings should look. Not that my opinion really matters though.

Aaron Rodgers-99
Drew Brees-98
Tom Brady-97
Tony Romo-94
Peyton Manning-93
Big Ben-93
Eli Manning-92
Phillip Rivers-92
Matthew Stafford-90
Michael Vick-89

Clutch isn't everything. I guess Tebow should be 97 also...

False. For his career Romo has 13 4th qtr comebacks and 14 game winning drives.

False. The Cowboys have made the postseason 3 times in the 5 seasons in which Romo started more than half their games (Romo missed the final 10 games in 2010 due to injury).

False. The Boys defeated Philly in the Wild Card round in 2009 only to lose in the divisional round to Minn.

Anything else?

EA might as well use a 20 point rating scale, since they dont use 0-80. Of course, then 0-15 wouldn't be used

Bet anything that Tebow's throw accuracy will be like an 84 or something when really it should be about a 70 and that's being generous. I won't be able to edit it either which really sucks. I don't wanna see him putting up 3000+ yards in my CC cause that just isn't realistic.

Ill take the two clutch winners over the stat monster any day.
You can't throw for 4000+ yards only playing good against the bad teams. Rivers isn't better than Eli and Ben because of stats. He's better because he simply does things they can't do, or can't do consistently like he does.

Brady broke the same record...Brees and Brady should both be 97.

Rodgers is a 99 cause he had 45 TD's 6 INT's 4,643 yds, 68.3% and a 122.5 rating. I think those numbers merit a 99 in this years game if anyone deserves it.

Fair enough, but the bigger issue is that no one deserves to be a 99.

rating base on stat is flat out rediculous. most of tony romo stat are what most nfl analyst call garbare yard. scoring a td when a game is over should not count toward your stat. tony romo suck, and is the why he cant win a game against any good team. why is jay cutler not in the top ten.
