We’re now through a full quarter of the NFL season and at this point players have had ample opportunity to display whether they are playing at a level worthy of a ratings increase or that they aren’t living up to their current ratings and deserve to drop. With the next roster update for Madden 10 coming later this week here again is an opportunity to let your thoughts be known on what players should see adjustments.

Certainly Steve Smith of the Giants is at the top of the list of players that are severely underrated. Smith leads the league in receptions, yards, and touchdowns yet he is still rated only an 81. He should see a significant bump that better represents his emergence as a #1 receiver. Elvis Dumervil for the Broncos is tied for the league lead in sacks with eight but is rated only an 81.

The other end of things has Terrell Owens who needs to drop further, the one point he lost in the last update was not nearly enough. A receiver with a 90 rating should have more than eight catches through four games. LaDainian Tomlinson has been slowly inching downwards since the middle of last year but there seems to be some hesitance to slide him to where he really should be. On the season he has 20 carries for 70 yards yet is still rated a 92. Also the whole Packers offensive line is in shambles so there could be some changes made there.

The moves that occurred too late to make the last update such as Chad Pennington to the IR and Jeff Garcia having been cut will be included this week. Feel free to leave your thoughts on what players should see an upgrade or downgrade in the upcoming roster update.

Man those saying stoping crying cause there's nothing wrong with a EA game? Are you kidding me? Madden 10 has so many bugs, glitches, and problems- that its a wonder that people even play it.

Don't ge me wrong, I like the game. But saying nothing is wrong with it- makes me think you got off your meds.

Makes sense. They don't see all the errors like you do because you're probably a douchebag who wants the game to be exactly like real life (listen, get off the couch and experience real life why dontcha), and you think they're off their meds? What a valid assumption! Considered suicide lately? Do it

RB Chris Johnson to at least overall 92.(Leading rusher)

LB Patrick Willis to overall 99.(He Is The 49ers Defense.INT this week and he is everywhere on the field)

QB Brett Favre to at least overall 87.(Won the game for them in the 49ers game and packers game With his Arm)

WR Chad Ochocinco to overall 90.(2 TDS catch and that spectalur catch in the endzone.I think he is back)

CB Champ Bailey to overall 98.(INT and couple pass deflicts to win the game.He is a shutdown corner)

CB Davrelle Revis to overall 97.(He is underrated.Every wide reciever he goes up against he shuts them down)

RB Ronnie Brown to overall 93.(He be running hard everygame for the dolphins and he help the dolphins get there first win)

DE Jared Allen to overall 99.(He is a beast.Destoryed the Packers O line)

WR Brandon Marshall to Overall 92.(Was beating Newman like if was nothing)

Rating that needs to be drop is Larry Fitezard.Terell Owens.Ladainan Tomlinson.Asante Samuels.Micheal Turner.Deangelo Williams.Lofa Tatupu.

dutlee

brandon marshall what beat him like nothing if newman was 2 inch taller that would have been a int

Tyler

And if Dumervil was taller he would probably have sacked Romo. Oh wait, he did. Newman just didn't make a play. Don't make excuses for the guy because he didn't go for the ball.

I think the steelers offensive line should have their points back. Did you see the chargers nose tackle, and linebackers getting shoved out of the way for rashard Mendenhall. 165 yards and offensive player of the week not to shabby. Also When troy gets a pick in week six, I would like his catch rating moved up to 85 like the top safetys in the league. Still cant believe he started the season at a 35. Geeze

Steve Smith should be at 87. Elvis should be 85. Aaron Rodgers needs a 91. Mendenhall 79. Brett Farve 87. Brandon Meriweather should be 85, he's a lot better then some of the Safety's that are rated higher them him. Ray Rice an 84, McGahee an 87. Jonathan Joesph an 85. Brandon Marshall back up to 91 maybe even 92. Kyle Orton up to 80.

No player should go down due to injury. LT isnt the top back in the league, but SD hasnt even attempted to establish a running game yet in any game. What I dont understand is how a RB can go down for not getting any blocking and then Sproles goes up without being a competent runner. His rushing stats this season are pathetic. He should also go down, along with the SD olines rbk which has been non existent so far this year

DANIEL Mobley

Jay Cutler needs a boost on all accuracy levels. Daniel Manning needs to be at least a 75 overal. Johnny Knox needs a speed boost to atleast a 97. He ran the fastest 40 but is slower than other rookies. Dumerville needs a nice boost leading in sacks. Champ Bailey should be a 97 or 98.Shaun HIll and Glenn Coffee should get a boost. Steve Slaton should be faster. Correl Buckhalter deserves a boost. Masaqua from the browns and Hakeem Nicks deserve a boost.

If Steve Smith (NY) is not over a 88 Overall Rating, I think I might kill someone. The guy leads the NFL in both Receiving Yards and Touchdowns. Bradshaw should get another boost, and Jacobs should get a decrease. Manningham should get a boost, and Hixon should go down. I personally feel Nicks is fine where he is. I think Eli should get a small boost into the 90's as well. He is really proving he's worth the money.

Benson should get a boost, as looked good every game so far this year. Coles should go down, not doing much at all this year.
