Are all players rated the same for each coach?

Written by Shopmaster on June 11, 2012. Posted in

Every team rates players based on their individual philosophies. Gone are the days of every single team thinking that the same running back is a 90 overall rating across the board. The Saints prefer smaller receiving backs while the 49ers lean toward backs that can handle the load. This brings a whole new layer of strategy to the Draft, Free Agency, Trades, and Scouting. You might think a rookie QB is an 80 overall but the Bears may think he’s a 76.

New sub overall ratings

Connected Careers features a new overall ratings that take into account physical skills, intangibles, injuries, production (stats) and size. Teams weight these differently, so a team that prefers smart players might not put a lot of emphasis into size.

Like I said, I gave my feedback and hopefully they can do something. I gave other feedback and have seen them put it in so I wouldn’t get worried about that yet, but if E3 gets here and it’s not in there then I understand. Saying something has not been done when the game isn’t finished isn’t fair unless EA says it’s not going to be in there.

Seems like nothing has been done to improve OL/DL play in the passing game. The lack of double team blocks is particularly upsetting as this is a staple of the NFL game. Elite edge rushers are always getting chipped, double teamed or something else to ensure they are not a disruptive force. Madden continues to neglect that year after year.

This is a Madden list, not a NFL list. Wilson’s ratings are sup par when it comes to running the ball. If this was an NFL list then yea Id take Wilson over EJ. EJ is a big guy and will be a load like Cam.

Pryor can’t throw.

The list is for qbs that can throw. As much as I like Denard his throwing ratings are going to be terrible.
