Week Seven Ratings Change Suggestions

m10rice1027

Having no roster update for Madden 10 last week most of those same suggestions apply. Some teams have shown they deserve more in how they are represented in the game such as the undefeated Broncos, Saints, and Colts. Other teams like the Rams, Bucs, Redskins, Raiders, and Titans probably will never be rated as low as they should be.

For individual players it will be taking into account two weeks where many have displayed they are deserving of a boost. In addition to the week six thoughts those players include Sidney Rice who has become a big-time target for Brett Favre but is only rated a 77. Miles Austin had another outstanding game and has become the #1 receiver for the Cowboys. He should go up to the low 80s from where he is now as a 76. Matt Schaub leads the league in passing yards and TDs but is only rated an 84. Cedric Benson should see another leap as he leads the league in rushing and will move from his 86.

On the way down there are a handful of QBs to choose from. JaMarcus Russell is too high as a 68. He was benched this weekend, has a 2-8 TD/INT ratio is only completing a dreadful 46% of his passes. Jake Delhomme has been picked off 13 times already and it appears he will be getting benched as well. The 76 is too high when there are competent QBs rated in the high 70s and low 80s. Shaun Hill has been a decent game manager but now that he has been replaced he should see a drop as well. One more player to consider is Roy Williams who has clearly lost his stance as #1 receiver in Dallas and has not performed up to the level of an 84. He has only 12 catches and 1 TD on the year.

This update will move Alex Smith into the starting role with the 49ers. While it would be premature to judge him based on a single half of football against a team that didn’t gameplan for him he should see a slight move up. He is currently a 70 and could move to 74 with Shaun Hill maybe sliding down to a 73.

Injury wise look for players such as Kris Jenkins, Leon Washington, Will Allen, and Antwan Odom to hit the IR. The trade of Will Witherspoon to the Eagles will also be reflected.

As always feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments on players that deserve a ratings hike or should see their ratings drop with this week’s Madden 10 roster update.

Bucs
Tanard Jackson has played two games and has a forced fumble, two INTS (one pick six and the other on Tom Brady)- deserves a boost
Aqib Talib- all season has had to cover oppents best reciever (Randy – 0 TDS, Steve Smith- 0 TDs, 1 catch, Desean Jackson- 0 TDs, 1 catch) and has 4 INTS- deserves a boost
Jimmy Wilkerson- leads team in sacks with 5.5 sacks and 2 forced fumbles
Barret Ruud- 4th in NFL in tackles
Sammie stroughter- 97 yard kick off return- boost in speed

HUEJAC2

That's what I'm taking about yo. But don't forget about Stylze White, 2 sacks in two games since replacing Gaines Adams.

Alex Smith needs to be at least a 74 as stated. Not only that but they need to get his attributes right. The have Hills arm almost as strong as Alex's arm. Try watching a game and tell me if there is any comparison in regards to velocity. Also his deep ball accuracy needs to be at least a 78 to 80. Alex is known for his long ball and intermediate accuracy. It was the short passes that game him problems.

Can Vernon finally get some Love? The guy leads the league in receiving touchdowns. All of which came in heavy traffic, but everytime you throw to him over the middle he drops it. WATCH A GAME!!!

The oline needs to be dropped at least a point or two across the board except for Hietman and Staley. The line has been playing bad.

The Dline on the other hand has been lights out. Justin Smith should be a 90. The tackling if the defense as a whole should go up. Can you tell me how the hell does Desean Jackson break Patrick Willis tackle, not once not twice but 3 times in a game? Are you serious? WATCH A GAME!!.

The team rating should be a 79 not a 77.

Patrick

im not sold on miles austin, lets see him go against my packers great press coverage corners with CC, and Harris then lets see if he still gets 170 or 224 yards. That doesn' mean i think the packers a boost cause cmon look at their last two opponents exactly nobody the lions and browns. If the packers show significant pass protection, and pass rush, and pass defense against the vikes this week then we should get a little bump in ratings but not now. AGAIN BASE STATS ON HOW GOOD THE OPPONENT IS AND WHETHER THE PLAYER IS PUTTING UP MONSTER NUMBERS WEEK IN, WEEK OUT. thats why i think weekly updates are pointless.

You're retarded and just looking at stats. If you look at the way Miles Austin has played, he definitely deserves a boost. I'm sure he would still have a strong game against the Packers. Maybe not as great as he's been playing, but definitely strong.

I think your input is pointless.

I think that Rashard Mendenhall should get a boost. If he got the ball more than 10-12 times a game he would lead the leauge in alot of stats. He needs a boost in catching blocking and speed / acc. Also the O line needs a significant boost. Havw you guys been watching them they have been one of the top lines in the NFL. Much improved.

Brawny

Even tho Miami lost the way the team played as a unit should in total be givin a small boost. They came the closet to beating the best team on paper this year so far .Defence secondary played well and the offeensive game was great (and much better than what the sports casters projected )Ricky Williams continue to play at a higher level than what he's rated. Ricky and Ronnie's stats to me in Madden 10 are mixed up, Ronnie power back, Ricky speed. just 2-4 but you have to show them some love for how they played. All in all lost because of bad play calling b the coaches.

Michael tuner needs a decrease and how many fumbles does he have , Roddy White needs a decrease the falcons entire secondary needs a decrease Abraham can not stop the run. Talib , Jackson , Rudd, Sammie all need speed increase Desuan Jackson 99 speedC benson @ least a 90 over all

Cardinals defense should see a good increase. Wilson and Rolle just moved around the formation to get into the head of Eli. The entire secondary did great and Dansby finally showed up. On top of that, Eli should go down. Eli took two delay of game penalties on third down! Lower the awareness for a QB that has not played well for two games straight (4 ints in two weeks).

aaron rodgers should definately go up to at least 93…hes proved himself even behind the worst o-line in the league. he has the 2nd best passer rating in the league with no time to throw. like charles woodson said, "if he has time to throw, he is the best passer in the league. might as well increase woodson while your at it. he had another pick this week

JACKEDPIG

aaron rodgers u mean gus ferrote i think they are twins….. but ya aaron rodgers only has the best passer rating because he is a puss and takes sacks like no other… if he decided to throw the ball and not get sacked all the time, maybe he wouldn't have that good of a passer rating…. GO VIKES

http://intensedebate.com/people/Bobby_Niners Bobby_Niners

i love seeing the new reborn rivalry between the pack and vikes… my friend is a die hard pack fan and i love that brett is on the purple now… its a blow to the heart for pack fans… im a niner fan so i have a little fhate for packers since the 90's…

giants d needs to take a hit. they've been exposed the last two weeks against the run and the pass. also i agree with rvg spears comment about mikells speed. theres no way hes that slow. and how is desean jacksons release a 69 he cant even get off press. on one presses him cause they know they'll get burned on first step.

HUEJAC2

What about Manningham having 92 speed, are you kidding me? Maningham is quick but not fast. He is closer to 82 than 92. His 40 is horrible.

Don't even think about dropping the Atlanta falcons o-line.u didn't touch them like all season.don't drop them for one bad game.don't even think about it.and the atlanat falcons defense in some spots should go up.they are one of the best in the redzone.even though, and I will admit got spanked by Dallas in points wise.

Tyler

The Falcons are ranked 3rd fewest in allowing sacks. If anything they should see a slight increase in pass protection for being overlooked for so long. Sam Baker is a quality LT and hasn't received a boost yet this year. I call that unacceptable and I'm not even a Falcons' fan.
