There isn’t another Madden 10 roster update scheduled for until January 8th but it remains a good idea to keep tracking progress over the coming weeks. The last update left a lot to be desired so some corrections are already in store but there were also other developments to take a look at based on performance over the weekend.

The Patriots and Steelers somehow improved in the last roster update despite their troubles. Both Randy Moss (for lack of effort) and Adalius Thomas (benched) should see their ratings affected. The Steelers need some cuts across the board based on a five game losing streak which includes some teams they had no business losing to.

Bruce Gradkowski had been playing relatively well before his injury, cue JaMarcus Russell and disaster strikes again. He should really see his overall rating fall from 65 to the low 50s. Brian Orakpo had a big game tallying four sacks (11 now on the year) and a forced fumble, though it should be noted much of that had to do with Russell being in at QB. He should see a bump from his current 78 rating.

Chris Johnson keeps staking his claim for a 99 rating. Brandon Marshall broke the record by finishing with 21 receptions against the Colts. He may be outplaying his 93 rating. DeSean Jackson now has laid claim to the record for most TDs in a season over 50 yards with eight of them. He currently is rated an 87. He also had a spectacular punt return TD and it appears his speed will at least move up to 99.

As always leave your thoughts in the comments as to what players deserve an increase or decrease based on their performance!

    Sheldon Brown is obviosly THE hardest hitting CB in football.... why is his hitpower 44???WHAT?! terrible... Jason Avant has never dropped a reasonable ball and yet he drops everything in madden... Trent Cole has a juicy rating in Madden BUT he's no weapon unless you user him... that sucks...
  • dylanmc
    eli needs to be higher than he is alswell as jonathon goff should be a little higher than he was too, id also have to say that the difference between bradshaw and jacobs needs to come down abit bradshaw has been out playing him. pretty much all the giants wr corp deserve a slightly better rating too. finally quit dropping tucks stats he is a fucken animal if retard sheridan didnt have him dropping into coverage half the time he would probly have double the sacks

    Why when you start a new online franchise the rosters are so outdated Brett Favre is a 82 rating Chris Johnson is a 88. So please fix this!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • OneBadassCat
    Matt Moore needs to go up to at least a 69-70 ovr, especially if your going to keep Jake Delhomme at 73 ovr.
    Jonathan Stewart was a monster on Sunday night and should get a boost. He played better than AP.

    Steve Smith showed he still has it and should go back up some. He shouldn't have been dropped in the 1st place. The QB struggles the panthers have had were killing the entire passing game. And even still he's about to break 1000 yds receiving. Show some respect.

    Charles Godfrey has really stepped up his game as well as James Anderson. Tyrell Sutton has become a steal for the panthers. Charles Johnson is arguably becoming the panthers best DE. Geoff Shwartz did a great job Sunday Night against the Vikings.

    desean jackson is ridiculous, he should be a 90 at least.
  • dutlee
    if he is a 90 then miles austin should be a 90 aswell if not higher
  • I think they should stop overrating the Steelers....just saying...
  • Calvin Gillen
    - Vincent Jackson needs a boost on where he's at.
    - Rivers still needs to be at least a 94 or 95. Sure he has thrown a few int's here and there, but he's still a very accurate passer.
    - Carson Palmer needs an increase as well.
    - Bengals run D needs a bump up. -Miles Austin and Romo have been a good team, they need at least a 2 point increase.
    - Without a doubt Freeman needs a boost. Not that bad of a QB.
  • Ron
    oh yeah, btw... VD.... looking to break Gates record for most td's in a season.... if he does so, i expect him to be rated at least a 98 in 2011.... and ahmad brooks is the real deal, the guy is fricking faaast and explosive.
  • Ron
    Just some points on the niners, Defense needs to go up! and Goldson.... he needs to get some love all around, why is he rated so slow? Vernon davis' catch in traffic and spect. catch needs to go up... he catches and hangs onto more catches while getting smoked in the air more than anyone in the league. Up there with wes welker for sure.
    Alex smith throwing power needs to go up! he has very underrated arm strength, accuracy on the other hand.... that's about right.
    Crabtree.... he has been playing great.... progressing every week. this guy is going to be great.
    And lets see some gore love with making the cards D look like a high school team trying to take him down.
  • Justin
    Anthony Spencer man deserves an 80
    Mike Jenkins +2
    Miles Austin is for real
    Romo +2
    D Ware should be a 99

    Folk - 75

    does anyone know when the online franchise rosters will be updated? it would be nice to actually be able to start an online franchise!!!

    What's up with the people cheating on Madden. I played a guy last night. He was a level 21. He played the raiders and thought he could cheese his way to a victory doing the same cheap plays and blitzing. I annihilated him 14 to 42. He kept pausing the game and didn't want a mercy quit. Then all of a sudden the game just stopped. The game didn't mess up or freeze. It just stopped. I figured he was doing some router stuff so I left the game on for quite a long time and it just stayed stalled. When I finally came back to the game, I had been removed from the game for excessive delays. I checked his online record afterwards and he didn't even have a lost. What's up with that.
  • DJ Reisinger
    man EA plz bring out a good fuckign update this time b/c all the stats u put on players to make them a overall in what they r is not right at all update the right things for each player this time really u need to redo the whole madden roster but u guys r to lazy for that it wont happen everyone get ready for a bad update come jan 8th b/c until these guys ge tthere head out there asses we wont have a great update
  • Jman
    Ray Rice needs to be rated at least 91 and his speed should be higher. He IS our offense.
  • HUEJAC2
    Bucs ROLB Qincy Black needs a boost as well as, fellow Bucs SS Tanard Jackson, CB Aqib Talib, MLB Barrett Ruud, LT Donald Penn, & Center Jeff Faine. Just look at the stats not record, the way you did for Revis & Nomdi. Thanks for the time Pasta & Donny.
  • a lester
    I think matt moor should go up some more showed great accraute passes no picks no the carolina need some love for holding tom brady under 200 yrds passing and gamble for shutting down moss to the point he didnt sho no effort d williams need a boost he seem like the only offense we got and he gives he all every time he touches the ball
  • eric
    Eagles Offense for upgrades:

    mcnabb could use a bump in deep throw acc

    weaver is a beast and needs his speed upped along with his run blocking stats. dude is a crushing run blocker and unreal with the ball in his hands.

    desean: dont really care if he doesnt get 99 spd care more about his release being bumped up more then anything.

    justice is well deserving of a 82-84. dominated tuck for the second time this year.

    Eagles Defense: no one deserves any upgrades. Everyone on Defense can use a tackle decrease my god was it terrible to watch the safeties missing tackles left and right.
  • Will Chris Henry be removed from the game all together?
  • TJ Nelson
    probably but ea is so stupid they will put him on the IR LOL
  • unknown
    prob not...when sean taylor (R.I.P. 21) died they left him in the game...and damn i miss him so much
  • TJ Nelson
    he was a great player and back then the best saftey i thought
  • Jeff
    EA should definitely relook their stats cuz Jamaal ran a 4.3 forty and yes it was not 4.3 flat but if u think about it Chris Johnson ran a 4.24 so does it make sense for Charles to be only a 95 speed where as Chris is a 99. Also to add to that I believe Desean Jackson ran an official 40 time of 4.35 an he is a 99 overall speed so somebody please explain. Just look at how fast he is
  • blondeviking64
    that is what im saying
  • killu4what
    40 times don't directly tie in to game speed. No pads straight line running
  • rr3
    byrd, aaron schoble, george wilson, drayton florence, chris kelsay all need to go up
  • rr3
    also Kyle Williams
  • all i want is the ggame speed to go up..it is ridiculous how a wr with 96 spd is chased down by a safety with 87spd really this is whats wrong with the game
  • unknown
    yea...anyone else notice if u have a break away the guy running the ball (the user) will start freazing like every other frame letting everyone else catch u[
  • blondeviking64
    That has never happened to me. I did break a 65 yard TD with my FB (74 speed) and no one caught me from behind.
  • anthony
    im a big giants fan and even I feel they are highly overrated in this game, 2007 was a long time ago and even then they were the underdog.
  • eric
    couldnt agree more. most of there players get there rating from previous years. there o line isnt as dominant as years past. neither is there d line. i havent seen webster as a cover corner or lock down corner his year at all. need to be lowered.
  • XxMikey LightxX
    how bout charles woodson
  • TJ Nelson
    Vince Young should get a boost because in the games he started he has done amazing. Raiders Jamarcus Russel should be a 62 his throwing power should be in the high 90 but his accuracy should be in the low seventy's. Matt Ryan should get a big drop too.
  • ProFessa-J
    Deasean Jackson is NOT faster than Chris Johnson!!! He deserves 98 spd, not 99 spd, As a WR he displays his speed mostly without the ball, and catches it when behind the safeties. CJ displays his with the ball in his hand every play, he doesnt get to run routes where you sprint down the field, he has to pick and choose his spots and accelerate, while Desean can just run as fast as he can, then cut as fast as he can. If Desean gets 99spd, CJ deserves 100spd. Oh and Desean may look faster than CJ, but thats because his strides are crazy long and it looks like he's flying, while CJ just moves his legs at a faster pace. If madden had a Deep Route attribute for WRs, Desean would get a 99 in that though.
  • Paul
    chris johnson is not as fast as desean. get a grip.
  • blondeviking64
    unless you look at 40 times in which he beat him by a ton.
  • TJ Nelson
    I have been keeping my eye on the Chiefs. Jammal Charles has had a touchdown in 4 of his last 5 games and and total yards of 455 yards. Another sleeper is Quintin Gather in his first game he had 2 touchdowns. Devin Arshomodo for the bears in his first game he had a TD. Johny Knox he also had a amazing game to against the number 1 ranked defense.
  • dhunt
    pasta padre sucks because all the comments are from 9 year olds demanding for all the players on their favorite teams to have higher ratings.

    it doesn't work like that, fuckfags!
  • JaMarcus Bustell has been benched for Charlie Frye....
