    Clowney 92 rating when as a DE would be a little nuts.

    Yep, him and Watt as DEs are going to be a tough task for any o line man

    Top 5 QB's
    http://www.easports.com/madden-nfl/news-updates-gameplay/article/quarterback-player-ratings?utm_campaign=mad15-social-global-ic-tw-ratings-quarterbacks-072214-tw-img-site-ramp&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&sourceid=mad15-social-global-ic-tw-ratings-quarterbacks-072214-tw-img-site-ramp&cid=23509&ts=1406049260473

    madden-ratings-manning.jpg
    Moore on Manning: Peyton’s arm strength may be trending down (86 THP), but everything else about him is still legendary. The five-time NFL MVP boasts 99 AWR (ranked first in NFL), 99 Short Accuracy (first), 96 Medium Throw Accuracy (first), 88 Deep Accuracy (fourth), and 98 Play Action (first).
    madden-ratings-rodgers.jpg
    Moore on Rodgers: Some people are surprised to see Rodgers tied with Peyton at 98 OVR after an injury-plagued 2013 season. But he still maintains 80 SPD and 94 THP, which helps him overall. He's not as accurate as Peyton, however, with 92 Short/88 Medium/90 Deep (ranked first in NFL).
    madden-ratings-brees.jpg
    Moore on Rodgers: Brees is ranked second in Short and Medium Accuracy ratings. He falls to 81 Deep Accuracy (ranked 17th in NFL) after a rough 2013 season where he hit only 40.3% of deep passes according to Pro Football Focus.
    madden-ratings-wilson.jpg
    Moore on Wilson: Being 5’11” doesn’t hurt Russell Wilson one bit in the Madden NFL 15 ratings. He is the ultimate dual threat with his 86 SPD (ranked eighth in NFL for QBs), 90 AGI (seventh), 92 ACC (second), and 93 Throw Power. Don’t be afraid to throw it deep (89 Deep Accuracy, ranked third) and on the run (fifth) with Wilson as well, he can do it all.
    madden-ratings-brady.jpg
    Moore on Brady: Brady still has it. His 99 AWR is tied with Peyton for best in the NFL, and his 94 Short Accuracy (third), Medium Accuracy (fourth), and 93 Throw Power are all elite. There are plenty of reasons to NOT give up on Touchdown Tom quite yet.

    AFC North and NFC North team ratings revealed on Aug 1st,I think I read that somewhere

    Russell Wilson tied with Brady, are you kidding me? Thats really disappointing

    Completely crazy how high Wilson is rated. Should be rated around 85 at most.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,197 ✭✭✭giffney1991


    Madden always do that, they like to beef up the Super Bowl winners and their 'key men'. I actually found the only team not to real get that special treatment was the ravens in this madden!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 6,340 Mod ✭✭✭✭PerrinV2


    Top 5 Rb's released today
    I think the order might be

    1.AP
    2.Marshawn Lynch
    3.LeSean McCoy
    4.Jamaal Charles
    5.Matt Forte maybe

    Could see Lynch and McCoy being level overall

    You forgot Trent Richardson :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,477 ✭✭✭✭Knex*


    I'd have

    AP - 96
    McCoy - 94
    Lynch - 93
    Charles - 92
    Forte - 91

    Reggie Bush probably be around 88, or so. Murray might be similar. But I can't see too many RB's breaking 90, outside of those. Lacy will be around 86/87, Gore and Morris perhaps the same.

    Leaving anyone major out?


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,748 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    wouldnt say there'll be any surprises.

    I think Bishop Sankey will get about a 77 ish but hard to know


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 6,340 Mod ✭✭✭✭PerrinV2


    madden-ratings-peterson.jpg
    Moore on Peterson: Even in an off year, All Day Adrian Peterson is still the best in the game. 97 SPD (ranked fifth for HB), 97 AGI (fourth), 97 ACC (fourth), 95 ELUS (third), 96 Stiff Arm (fourth) and 88 STR (first) means you should hand the ball off to Peterson "All Day" long.

    madden-ratings-mccoy.jpg
    Moore on McCoy: McCoy's 99 Elusiveness (tied with Jamaal Charles, ranked first in NFL), 99 AGI (first), and 98 ACC (first) make Shady a very dangerous man in Madden NFL 15.

    madden-ratings-charles.jpg
    Moore on Charles: Charles is now tied with Chris Johnson as the fastest HB in Madden 15 at 98 SPD. JC is also the second-ranked pass catcher for HB’s with 85 Catch. And I can't forget to mention 99 Elusiveness (first) and 99 Ball Carrier Vision (first).

    madden-ratings-forte.jpg
    Moore on Forte: Forte is not the fastest or the most powerful back in the game, but there's nothing he can’t do. His 91 SPD/92 AGI/94 ACC give him nice physical measureables, and his 96 Carry (ranked second) and 84 Catch (third) make him an every-down back in Madden and in the real world.

    madden-ratings-lynch.jpgMoore on Lynch: Lynch aka Beast Mode boasts 99 Trucking (ranked first in NFL), 99 Stiff Arm (first), and 97 Carry ratings (first). In a nutshell, Mr. Beast Mode will run over defenders and never fumble.

    The one good thing about stopping playing Madden in December is that you are really ****ing up for it when the new game rolls around in August.

    Tell me about it. I was getting withdrawal symptoms after stopping at the end of October for Madden 13. :pac:

    Are you coming back for Xbox 360 or Xbox One mate?

    WR
    1.Calvin Johnson
    2.AJ Green

    5.Jason Witten

    No Dez :eek:,give Gronk a massive injury rating :D

    Julio Jones will be 2nd or 3rd


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 6,340 Mod ✭✭✭✭PerrinV2


    madden-15-ratings-calvin-johnson.jpg

    Moore on Johnson: Just how good is Calvin Johnson? Best Hands in NFL: check (98 Catch/99 Spectacular Catch – both ranked first in NFL). Physical monster: check (95 Speed/98 Jump/99 Release). He is even a top-ten Run Blocker among wideouts.

    madden-15-ratings-marshall.jpg

    Moore on Marshall: Marshall may not be the fastest WR in football (88 SPD), but he is one of the best. He is the third strongest WR, the best WR at breaking tackles (85 Trucking), tied with Calvin for best hands (98 Catch) and is the best at catching passes in traffic (99 CIT).

    madden-15-ratings-andre-johnson.jpg

    Moore on Johnson: Andre Johnson might be slowing down a bit, but is still a huge threat in Madden NFL 15 with 98 Awareness/96 Catch/94 Route Running/98 Catch in Traffic.

    madden-15-ratings-green.jpg

    Moore on Green: With 97 Release (ranked seventh for WR), 97 Jump (sixth), and 98 Spectacular Catch (second), just throw the ball up in AJ Green’s general vicinity and he will do the rest.

    madden-15-ratings-bryant.jpg

    Moore on Bryant: If Dez Bryant plays anything like he does in Madden NFL 15, Cowboys fans will be throwing up a lot of touchdown celebration "X’s." 97 AGI (ranked second for WR’s), 95 Juke Move (eighth), 96 Catch (seventh) and 98 Spectacular Catch (second) make Dez a top-five WR in Madden[IMG]http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/Moore on Bryant: If Dez Bryant plays anything like he does in Madden NFL 15, Cowboys fans will be throwing up a lot of touchdown celebration "X’s." 97 AGI (ranked second for WR’s), 95 Juke Move (eighth), 96 Catch (seventh) and 98 Spectacular Catch (second) make Dez a top-five WR in Madden[/IMG]


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 6,340 Mod ✭✭✭✭PerrinV2


    madden-15-ratings-graham.jpg

    Moore on Graham: It doesn’t matter if he lines up at WR or TE. In Madden NFL 15, Jimmy Graham is just plain awesome. He is the top-ranked Route Runner and has the second-best hands (92 Catch) amongst all TE’s. Plus, his 85 SPD/87AGI/88 ACC (not to mention Drew Brees at QB) is an unfair combination.

    madden-15-ratings-gronkowski.jpg

    Moore on Gronkowski: It’s a good thing that the Injury rating does not factor into OVR ratings in Madden; otherwise, Gronk's 73 Injury rating (tied for fifth worst for TE’s) would impact his OVR. When he's healthy, he's one of the best to ever play the position. Gronk is the strongest TE with 88 Strength, best in Trucking (88), fourth best Route Runner, and he also excels in traffic (96 CIT).

    madden-15-ratings-davis.jpg

    Moore on Davis: If you enjoy blinding speed (90) and top-ten Run Blocking ratings out of your tight end, look no further than Davis.

    madden-15-ratings-witten.jpg

    Moore on Witten: Jason Witten has been Mr. Reliable for the Cowboys offense over the last decade. His 96 Awareness, 87 Route Running, and 94 Catch ratings are all best among tight ends in Madden NFL 15.

    madden-15-ratings-olsen.jpg

    Moore on Olsen: Olsen is very versatile in Madden – 86 SPD and 85 Catch to go along with solid run blocking skills. Chances are he will lead the Panthers in receiving in 2014

    Perrin's only pissed because Santa gave him a sack of coal.

    Clowney shoots up to a 92 OVR when he's switched from OLB to DE. Watt and Clowney at 99 and 92 on either side!

    As a Giants fan, the only player who might sneak on it would be Rolle, I would guess.

    I was wrong, casey comes in at 5th rated DT

    I've become interested in NFL in the past year or so watching games on Sky sports on a lazy Sunday.

    I dont really know enough about it though to properly enjoy it. I intend on putting that right this year. Gonna watch a few video's on youtube or wherever. I understand the general concept, first down's etc but not a lot more.

    I've played Madden games before mainly on the Mega Drive but never really "got" them. More sort of pick a play and hope for the best. I found Madden 11 last night on my shelf for 360. Think I'd played it twice.

    Anyway bottom line is I just bit the bullet and preorder Madden 2015 for xbox 360. Its on sale on WowHD at €42 which I thought was really cheap for a new release. Its on Smyths for €65 so god knows what gamestop wants for it!
    http://www.ie.wowhd.com/games/madden-nfl-15-xbox-360/dp/38682435#bc=1629

    If any of ye are getting the 360 version which I'm sure most wont but if ye are take it easy on me if ye see me on there!

    Murphyebass .... is my live ID thing I think.
