Ratings Up
HB Matt Forte - Bears - 85 to 87 - Ran hard and showed great promise
behind a mediocre offensive line and a seemingly bad passing game.
DE Alex Brown - Bears - 85 to 86 - Made some big plays but consistency is still the biggest problem with him.
CB Leon Hall - Bengals - 80 to 82 - Had a better year after getting abused by offenses in his rookie season.
S Chinedum Ndukwe - Bengals - 80 to 84 - The Bengals best player in the
secondary this season. Looks to enter next season entrenched as a
starter.
HB Fred Jackson - Bills - 81 to 83 - Backup back to Marshawn Lynch who outplayed him most weeks.
LT Ryan Clady - Broncos - 87 to 90 - Elite LT for the Broncos. Everything you heard about how good he is is true.
WR Brandon Marshall - Broncos - 94 to 96 - Has taken the next step as a
dominate #1 WR. The numbers are only going to get better.
WR Eddie Royal - Broncos - 82 to 84 - Undersized receiver who proved
most critics wrong about the Broncos drafting him too early.
WR Larry Fitzgerald - Cardinals - 97 to 98 - Made more circus type catches vs. an outmatched Falcons secondary.
DE Antonio Smith - Cardinals - 84 to 85 - Has played big all season for the Cardinals.
LB Karlos Dansby - Cardinals - 88 to 89 - Was showing big hitting
ability and in the right place at the right time in the 1st round vs.
the Falcons.
CB DRC - Cardinals - 81 to 85 - Matched up with Roddy White and came up
big. Made a nice leaping INT in addition to solid man coverage.
HB Darren Sproles - Chargers - 82 to 84 - Could be the start of a huge
offseason contract. Looks much better than Tomlinson down the stretch.
CB Terence Newman - Cowboys - 95 to 96 - After shedding off injury
concerns locked down opposing receivers the rest of the season.
DT Jay Ratliff - Cowboys - 87 to 88 - Racked up 7.5 sacks in impressive fashion for the Cowboys.
LB Bradie James - Cowboys - 88 to 89 - Played pro bowl caliber this season (just ask him).
CB Andre Goodman - Dolphins - 76 to 79 - Was miserable in Detroit in a
Cover 2 scheme, played extremely well in man for the Dolphins.
LT Jake Long - Dolphins - 86 to 89 - Dolphins made a good pick and got a solid LT for the next 10 years.
LB Channing Crowder - Dolphins - 86 to 87 - Played kind of like
everyone thought he would at the end of the season. Is up for a new
contract.
QB Chad Pennington - Dolphins - 85 to 88 - Didn’t get it done vs. the
Ravens, but played near mistake free football all season with free
agent caliber WR’s playing a big role.
S Yeremiah Bell - Dolphins - 86 to 87 - Emerged as the best player in
the Dolphins secondary after showing promise last year before a knee
injury.
QB Donovan McNabb - Eagles - 91 to 92 - Has been rolling since the
benching. Continues to play with receivers that can’t beat press
coverage.
S Quintin Mikell - Eagles - 86 to 89 - The strength of the defense has been the safeties, big reason is Mikell.
S Brian Dawkins - Eagles - 93 to 94 - Whispers of his demise were exaggerated, has been as good as ever this season.
QB Matt Ryan - Falcons - 87 to 89 - Played a shaky rookie playoff game
with some rookie throws, but he will be an elite QB in the future.
LT Sam Baker - Falcons - 83 to 85 - Had back issues this season and was
banged up in college, but was a fine pass blocker when healthy.
WR Roddy White - Falcons - 93 to 94 - Looks to keep rolling next season with Matt Ryan.
CB Corey Webster - Giants - 90 to 91 - Has really turned it on this season playing excellent football consistently.
CB Rashean Mathis - Jaguars - 96 to 97 - Was an All-Pro before an
injury to his knee ended his season. Likes to take the offenses best WR
which can’t be said about all elite CB’s.
S Gerald Sensabaugh - Jaguars - 81 to 83 -
HB Thomas Jones - Jets - 90 to 91 - Looked very spry despite Jet beat
writers saying otherwise. Ran very hard and was very elusive in space.
WR Calvin Johnson - Lions - 92 to 94 - Was the best player on the field
Week 17 vs. the Packers. A QB and a competent staff could produce
something never seen.
HB Kevin Smith - Lions - 79 to 81 - Was 24 yards short of a 1,000 with 8 TD’s on the Lions.
HB DeAngelo Williams - Panthers - 86 to 89 - His last half of the season was silly. Looks to keep rolling vs. the Cardinals.
QB Aaron Rodgers - Packers - 86 to 88 - Played an excellent season showing mobility and a cannon arm (and better than Brett).
FS Nick Collins - Packers - 89 to 91 - Was in the QB’s head for the
first time in his career this season. Game is slowing down for him.
CB Charles Woodson - Packers - 94 to 95 - The Packers MVP this season.
RT Jeff Otah - Panthers - 79 to 83 - A beast in the run game.
LB Jerod Mayo - Patriots - 84 to 88 - Defensive rookie of the year. Mayo and Guyton could be special on the inside.
QB Matt Cassell - Patriots - 81 to 85 - Granted his receivers did all
the work, but made smart decisions and passes all the way until the end.
CB Chris Johnson - Raiders - 71 to 79 - Paired with Asomugha to
dominate opposing WR’s when both active. The other Chris Johnson
replaced DeAngelo Hall and was better.
G Robert Gallery - Raiders - 85 to 87 - A bright spot on the Raiders
offensive line. His shift to guard has helped out his career.
WR Lance Moore - Saints - 80 to 84 - Closed out the year with a big game and led the Saints in all receiving stats.
CB Ike Taylor - Steelers - 92 to 93 - Wide receivers can’t seem to see him lately. He just bats it down and lets them know.
HB Steve Slaton - Texans - 85 to 87 - My vote for top rookie back (Slaton/Forte/Johnson)
WR Andre Johnson - Texans - 97 to 98 - Dominated Charles Tillman and Al
Harris to end the season. Is just better than everyone else.
HB Chris Johnson - Titans - 85 to 86 - Has flourished playing behind an excellent line. We’ll see what he’s got in the playoffs.
WR Justin Gage - Titans - 81 to 83 - Played big in games where the Titans had to pass the ball.
CB Cedric Griffin - Vikings - 83 to 85 - Was bad the first half of the
season, but the last half and playoff game was the best corner the
Vikings had.
WR Bernard Berrian - Vikings - 85 to 86 - Lead the league in YPC in a bad passing offense.
Ratings Down
CB Charles Tillman - Bears - 92 to 90 - Took a beating by opposing WR’s down the stretch.
LT Levi Jones - Bengals - 85 to 82 - Was pretty bad in pass blocking before ending up on IR.
LT Jason Peters - Bills - 96 to 94 - Made the Pro Bowl. Gave up a league high sacks at the LT position.
CB Dre Bly - Broncos - 89 to 87 - Was awful in Denver this season with no pass rush.
DE Elvis Dumervil - Broncos - 87 to 85 - Offered no pass rush in Denver this year.
HB LaDainian Tomlinson - Chargers - 99 to 97 - Closed out his 8th
season with his lowest yards (1,110) and second lowest TD total (11).
Averaging 4.4 YPC for his career with 126 TD’s.
WR Marvin Harrison - Colts - 92 to 89 - Is a shadow of his old self.
Looks slow and can’t beat press coverage anymore (he still gets deep
because corners underestimate him).
HB Joseph Addai - Colts - 91 to 90 - A bad and dinged up season this
year for Indy. The health of the offensive line was a big factor.
WR Terrell Owens - Cowboys - 98 to 96 - The party is over. A 35 year
old receiver who doesn’t get open anymore won’t be given such leeway.
WR Roy Williams - Cowboys - 92 to 91 - Was not able to get open in Dallas.
FS Reggie Nelson - Jaguars - 92 to 89 - Suffered from Sophomore slump
and injuries. Was beaten several times very badly and had few INT’s to
show for his gambling and lack of physicality.
QB Brett Favre - Jets - 94 to 89 - Played the Jets out of the playoffs.
While guys like Leon Washington were winning the Jets games, Brett was
losing them and keeping them out of games.
TE Ben Watson - Patriots - 87 to 84 - Was on the field a ton, but not part of Matt Cassel’s plan.
G Jacob Bell - Rams - 92 to 88 - A big bust acquired by the Rams in the offseason. Didn’t do much.
WR Torry Holt - Rams - 93 to 92 - Looks to be out of St. Louis and its time. No longer an elite #1 WR.
DE Jason Taylor - Redskins - 97 to 96 - Was banged up all season and
didn’t do much, although looked better at the end of the season.
DE Andre Carter - Redskins - 88 to 87 - Combined with Jason Taylor to underachieve at the end position.
DE Will Smith - Saints - 90 to 89 - Did nothing except water pills this season in New Orleans.
TE Jeremy Shockey - Saints - 93 to 91 - Is a shell of his former self and not worth the crap that seems to follow him.
CB Marcus Trufant - Seahawks - 93 to 91 - Had an awful year this year after a very good one last season.
C Matt Birk - Vikings - 93 to 90 - No longer an elite Center and likely out of Minnesota.
S Darren Sharper - Vikings - 90 to 88 - Hasn’t been the same and
probably will be phased out of Minnesota. Can still start somewhere but
isn’t the player he was.
from pastapadre

CB Chris Johnson - Raiders - 71 to 79 - Paired with Asomugha to
dominate opposing WR’s when both active. The other Chris Johnson
replaced DeAngelo Hall and was better.

This was dumb on account hes already a 75.

I hope the DeAngelo update will add some speed to him.

yeah i didnt understand that either
i think they should have given jroc a little more respect, he played well the last 2-3 games

Cowboys need to go down more.

when is EA gonna give Flacco some love? unbeleivable! he hasn't received an upgrade at all! his speed needs to be faster and his throwing accuracy needs to be increased as well.

Quote :

There is still expected to be another update next week following the
divisional round of the playoffs. It’s unknown whether there will be
one after the Conference Championships before closing out the year with
the final update following the Super Bowl.

we can only hope that the cowboys get downgraded then..

i'm happy they released pacman i haven't played in 2 days cus i didn't want to play sum bum who got to use pacman

sorry but i have to say this
^ bruh, the girl in yo avatar is cakeyy lol

k my qb is better and my d is better this is great

I'm happy to see the Eagles D get some love.. bout friggin time. Should have happened after the Dallas game! I agree with you Mili... Flacco should have gotten some love. If they manage to beat the Titans (Highly unlikely) I think he will.

00000000000000000000000000 fcking ravens EA is pissing me off

i was with you.....until....you mentioned that it was "highly unlikely" that my Ravens would put down the titans.

wat makes it worst is that matt ryan is an 89 and played really bad teams lol cept the panthers... flacco only lost to peeps who made the playoffs..... and how is it highly unlikely the first game was 13-10 because of a roughing the passer call that didnt even happen and flacco is better

DeAngelo went up to a 96 speed...I'm happy.

Whered you get all this info from?

COWBOYS BETTER GO DOWN MORE!!! And I'm not saying that just because I don't like them, but because they actually need to.

no steelers either way? harrison should have went up at lb at least.
oh sorry taylor moved up 1

Where did you get all this info :o

pastapadre

what about the falcons D....they made it to the playoofs and still have a shitty D....they need to get that up a little

only one steeler on d went up what a crock

steelers D especially Harrison has went up every week. hes probaly went up like 20 points this year.

matt cassel and jerod mayo went up and the coverboy went down. pretty good

Cowboys should get lowered to 92 or even lower the way they played at the end of the season
