MADDEN 17 Vikings team rated.

Post by MichViking »

For all the Madden gamers out there, Madden has released all the teams ratings. Its interesting to see how the folks at EA sports view our team. In my opinion we still aren't getting much respect as it seems like a lot of our players are poorly rated. The one that really sticks out to me....Mack Alexander is rated higher than Trae Waynes. The other big shaft.....Danielle Hunter is only rated a 72.

Heres the full list..

Wow that is pretty rough. I see they went my way on the Harris over Fusco battle :lol:

They were being generous to Locke thats for sure. Waynes and Hunter got screwed.

Kendricks should be higher as well

You think Waynes got a raw ranking? I don't think so, I haven't seen much from either him nor his production to make me agree.

Kendricks ranking is quite silly though, I agree.

I would've guess more in the 75 range for Waynes

Remember when Robert Blanton was like 83 overall or something?

Haven't looked at the other teams yet, but based on years past it looks like total disrespect for the division winner.
Correction.... Blanton was 86 just last year... lol

You can compare them to '16 ratings
http://madden-player-ratings.pointafter.com

Aparently adrian declines by 4, Bridgewater declines, Sharrif Floyd declines, Sullivan virtually no change after taking time off and having back injury. Munnerlyn declines by 6 after playing excellent year as nickel back. McKinnon zero change despite obvious improvement. Trae Waynes declines after a young player and a good offseason and obvious improvement shown throughout the year... Keep in mind the Madden 16 rankings include the updates made throughout the year.

Aparently the Packers have an 85 overall defense... Hahaha yeah right.
To rate Packers 85 and Vikings 81 they must be Packer fans.
Also, the Cowboys have a better overall rating than us.... Haha yeah, ok

The check the AFC rankings... And how many are rated better than us.

https://www.easports.com/madden-nfl/new ... -afc-teams
Patriots (fine), Bengals (ok), Ravens (Uhhhh what?) Steelers (no), Cheifs (LOL!), Raiders (C'mon man!)
Even the Titans have a better ranking than us... What a joke.
Texans, Chargers and Bills same ranking as us. Brutal.


I guess the "optomistic" look at this is that they think Mike Zimmer must be worth more than 5 ratings points over the average NFL coach... I mean how else do they rank a team that clearly did better than it's current ranking last year and has players that as a whole are young and should improve and improved in the offseason?

Zimmer paid them so he could use it as a motivational tactic in the locker room.

The Packers D being 85 is pretty apt imo, they were very good last year, I agree the Vikes should have a higher ranking then 81 though.
