Madden NFL 11 Full Player Ratings: Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans

[angels eclipse7]

No but I think he deserves a high 80s or low 90s. Yeah, he will be rusty and not what he used to be. But an 96 caliber guy being rusty should only knock him down to an 89. As for Bethea, I think he is a little over rated. I'd even say he should be as low as 87.

Bethea is hands down a better safety than sanders (even when at 100%) Sanders might make big hits but he wiffs just as often and is much weaker in coverage. Bethea is the reason the colts give up so little big plays

So what would you rate Bethea? just curious. I re-rate everyone on my own, and i'd like others opinions so I don't mess anyone up.

Why do I get the feeling that EA is heading to the same problem they had before they even'ed out the ratings? There is waaaay to many 99's and high ratings!

That's what I like about fifa, the best player in the game is a 91 overall.

No. I have all the confidence in the world in Schaub. I do believe he can lead the team and be a great franchise QB. I'm just saying, Fitz benefited from great QB play and a great WR2. AJ has never really had those things.

just because he gets hurt often doesnt mean his overall rating should dip only his injury rating i never get that logic

Slaton will definitely improve as far as rating as the season goes on, if Kubiak gives him the chance to run. A lot of fans here in Houston seem to think Ben Tate is going to be the starter, which I think is ridiculous. Kid hasn't even run a single play in the NFL, and they're already calling for him to be the starter after Slaton suffered from the sophomore slump. He's proven he can run in the NFL, now let him do it. And AJ is the best WR in the NFL, hands down. Fitz is a very close second, but we'll see what he's really made of this season with Leinart at QB. Fitz has succeeded from having a great QB like Warner, and having Boldin on the other side of the field. AJ has never had a great QB, and never had another big name threat on the other side of the field, and yet he still puts up amazing numbers.

see what hes really made of? if your a beast wide receiver your a beast

ala Kyle Orton throwing to Brandon Marshall

So if he goes out and has a career year he will deserve a bump in his ratings but if he misses most of the year again his overall doesn't deserve to go down? Where is the logic in that?

8 games played, 42 tackles, and 2 int's the past 2 seasons does not warrant an 89.

When he does play he is a beast. Run stuffer, average in cover, takes risk to land big hits & if he succeds it's usually a reward of forcing a fumble.

If he was fresh off of his 2007 season then an 89 or higher would be what he deserves but he is not. Right now he is nothing more then an injury prone guy who isn't on the field producing to warrant such a rating, if he was he would deserve a 82-84 at best.
