btw cityofchamps just out of curiosity how much of a "Madden Maniac" are you??? Was taking a look at the website www.thegamerslab.com/community4/forum.php and I was reading through the threads. This website has all the top guys in the nation for Madden and they go to all the tournaments and stuff and they even have minor/major leagues regarding Madden. There's a league thats always recruiting called compete4ever.com/category/madden-football/A lot of the nationwide tournament winners come from the league above ^, apparently. They already have registration open for an Madden 25 league too. I was also scrolling through the threads and they do bet on other peoples games.... I saw 2 guys bet $500 on a MADDEN game, lol. I think that this website people play/bet on Madden to make money as their jobs almost. One guy on the site won over $100,000 dollars this year alone. Lol I am nowhere NEAR that level of manic when it comes to Madden. I don't even like playing online all that much (I've had iffy interactions with strangers online in the past). I just follow it and I like talking about it. Right now though, I am in a bit of a bind and had to sell my Xbox 360 and my games cuz I needed the cash, but I still keep up with it. I look forward to the next Madden about as much as I do with the NFL Draft.

Dennis Allen has already named Matt Flynn the starter...and Geno>Wilson any day of the week. Flacco>Ben, until Ben proves otherwise. How has Ben not proved otherwise? Ben has been statistically better than Flacco every year as well as having two super bowls to Flaccos 1. I generally don't count superbowls as a measurement for how good a QB is (team stat IMO) but most people do. I see no where, where Flacco has ever been better than Ben 2012 stats Big Ben - 13 games 3,265 yards, 26TDs, 8INT, 97.0 QB rating, completion% 63.3 Flaccos - 16 games 3,817 yards, 22TDs, 10INT, 87.7 QB rating, completion% 59.7 Ben threw more TDs than Flacco in 3 less games.. Ben was only 525 yards behind Flacco this year and he was averaging about 251 yards per game, soo in the last 3 games he likely would have put himself over 4000 yards and over 30 TD as he was averaging 2 per game.. So tell me.. where was Flacco at all better than Ben? Yes the Ravens made the playoffs, however Ben Missed 3 games where the team lost two of them. Had Ben been there they may have won those two games which would have put them ahead of the Ravens in the Standings. Ben = Better than Flacco, and this is coming from a person who doesn't like Ben and used to like Flacco a lot before all the unwarranted praise and hype! Injury has to play into account as well. Flacco can be average all he wants in the Reg season but when It counts he was one of the best QB's in history when it counted and you can not deny that. Ben is worthless when he's hurt...and it seems he's hurt more often every season. Flacco is better right now.

I think Rothelisberger will have a higher overall rating but a much lower injury rating than Flacco.

Shady is way too low dude....give me a break. His ratings will likely be hurt by the Eagles' bad season and his drop in production last year (only 840 yards and 2 TDs).

Named Flynn the starter "until competition proves otherwise" ~ but yes, Flynn should be on that list and Wilson shouldn't. And I'm not gonna do the whole Geno/Wilson argument again, I just posted that punch smiley to be funny. But Geno is getting beat out by Mark freaking Sanchez while the word is Wilson has been looking better than Flynn...just sayin

Injury has to play into account as well. Flacco can be average all he wants in the Reg season but when It counts he was one of the best QB's in history when it counted and you can not deny that. Ben is worthless when he's hurt...and it seems he's hurt more often every season. Flacco is better right now. Injury does play into an account, but Ben is still better.. Injury doesn't matter in Madden ratings it doesn't go against the overall. Ben is the better QB, and there for deserves to be rated so in Madden. Over the last 4 years, Ben has begun to put up stats and carry his team. Flacco, is where Ben was early in his career, a mediocre QB who was lucky enough to be on a very good Ravens team. I can deny that.. He wasn't anywhere near as good as people keep saying he was! The majority of his stats in the post season were big plays made by his WRs. He did just enough to look good, but he wasn't playing as amazing as people continue to say. I can picture at least 3 time off the top of my head where Boldin saved his ass from getting picked off, two of which would have been going for a TD the other way. I can think of at least twice where he under threw deep routes, one of which should have been picked off and should have lead to the Broncos going to the AFC div championship, had Rahim Moore not made one of the worst defensive plays I have ever seen that game would have ended differently. Had Flacco thrown the ball well Rahim Moore would have had 0 chance of getting to it. His O-line played absolutely stellar in the playoffs, I watched Von Miller reek havoc with every QB he played against in the regular season, some how the Ravens O-line shut him down all game. Flacco is not as good as everyone thinks he is.. He isn't anywhere near a top 5 QB, his regular season stats show that every year. And just because his team got hot and made him look a hell of a lot better than he actually played. and for the record I was cheering for the Ravens all playoffs minus the superbowl where I couldn't choose who I wanted to win. I am not a Flacco hater I actually like Flacco I am just tired of him being extremely over rated.. (This will be my last post on this subject cause I don't wanna hijack COC's thread and make it a Flaccos thread)

Lots of shoulda woulda in there jindred. Never said Flacco was top 5, just said he is better than Ben is right now. And was better in the postseason that Ben ever was.
