Roster and Ratings Discussion: Cincinnati Bengals

Why does Keith Rivers get an increase? Brandon Johnson is almost as good as Rivers. BJ should be rated about a 78.
And Leon Hall made the mid-season ESPN all pro team. Him and Asanta Samuel. But Leon Hall is only an 88?
Where is Chris Crockers increase?
What about Kyle Cook?
Jeremi Johnson?

These ratings suck

The bengals get no respect from Donny. EA sports is a joke...Someone needs to take over or they need to have their NFL license revoked. This is ridiculous.

C. Crocker still a 73?
J. Johnson still a 74?
Foschi still a 68? and not even the starter on the depth chart?
B. Johnson is a 60! Did you even watch him play the other day? IF you did and you say he is truely a 60 your are a straight up *.
The O-line gets no love besides the players you think are doing all the work...what about K. Cook? What about Roland? who by the way is the STARTING RT. I know you cant simulate their unbalanced line stuff but come on...at least you can get their positions right.
Appreciate the boost to Fanene.
But other than the boost to Fanene what did you really do over your 3 week break? You could at least watch some freakin film on someone. Theres tons of NFL network shows...watch some replays.
A 5 year old can do your job better Donny. You and your team need to be thinking about ur futures because they wont have Madden in them for very much longer.

BENGALS got screwed on these ratings really really bad

Yes we did, donny is a complete tool.

Where is Palmer766?!?!

These ratings are a slap in the face from Donny to Bengals Nation. Dude has no clue.
C Palmer went off on da Bears, had an amazing day, and his ratings decreased? How is that possible? He was 20/24 and 5 TD's, his passer ratings was 145'ish.

one game doesnt warrant an upgrade
however i do agree he shouldn't of been lowered......my main concern is both de's too low, Peko(spelling?), MLB, FS, both starting corners, and the still way too low o-line (mostly run-blocking and strength)

the first number is increases, second is decreases for big roster update #9

Arizona Cardinals 4+ 3-
Atlanta Falcons 4+ 3-
Baltimore Ravens 6+ 6-
Buffalo Bills 3+ 2-
Carolina Panthers 4+
Chicago Bears 3+ 5-
Cincinnati Bengals 10+ 1-
Cleveland Browns 3+ 3-
Dallas Cowboys 5+ 3-
Denver Broncos 3+ 6-
Detroit Lions 4+ 3-
Green Bay Packers 6+ 2-
Houston Texans 5+ 2-
Indianapolis Colts 8+ 0-
Jacksonville Jaguars 2+ 2-
Kansas City Chiefs 6+ 1-
Miami Dolphins 7+ 3-
Minnesota Vikings 13+ 4-
New England Patriots 10+ 2-
New Orleans Saints 9+ 2-
New York Giants 1+ 5-
New York Jets 0+ 1-
Oakland Raiders 3+ 6-
Philadelphia Eagles 4+ 2-
Pittsburgh Steelers 3.5+ 3.5-
San Diego Chargers 6+ 3-
San Francisco 49ers 5+ 3-
Seattle Seahawks 4+ 4-
*. Louis Rams 5+ 0-
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 12+ 1-
Tennessee Titans 7+ 5-
Washington Redskins 5+ 4-

The increases didn't change how our team actually is. I believe the average player on our D is still like 72. Thats not good for a team that is number 2 in scoring D and rush D.

Had an amazing day an 89 is nothing to complain about it's not like he has a 105 QB rating or is coming off a few great seasons.

88 Overall for Leon Hall once again for a guy who is having his first pro bowl caliber season, at that we are only 9 games intro the season. The way you act you want him in the nineties for a good half season. Ridiculous.

I can go again but there has been major progress rating wise for the Bengals this update.

WoW! Is this the update we've waited for?

1. Its clear to see that you've takin Carson down ovrall 1point based on his week 9 performance alone(never touched Ben and his stats were more terrible than palmer)? Not to mention Palmers 3 week stats are better than a 91 McNabb.

2. How can you raise Keith Rivers so high off of one game and not even blink Dhani Jones's way(check the stats)?

3.How can you under rate our lineman, then not start a few in the right spots?

4.How can Ocho Cinco be the only overall 90's player on a division leading 7-2, number 2 rush d team?

5.How can you not put Purify on the roster.

6.How can leon hall's speed not be at least a 90(4.39/40) and he has better stats than almost every so called shutdown corner in the league http://www.nfl.com/players/leonhall/profile?id=HAL432931. Better than http://www.nfl.com/players/nnamdiasomugha/profile?id=ASO415291 who ran a 4.38/40(you havent touched this man's stats and he aint done CHIT!), better than http://www.nfl.com/players/champbailey/profile?id=BAI582194 who ran a 4.41/40, better than http://www.nfl.com/players/darrellerevis/profile?id=REV515344 who ran a 4.39/40 just to name a few. WHAT IN THE 4ELL DO YOU BASE THESE RATINGS ON? Its clear you pick and choose your favorites and watch no complete film, because these ratings are a joke.

Need to add WR Maurice Purify and make him 4th on depth chart.
Change D Roland from LT to RT (he is the starting RT)
Change A Collins from RT to LT

Yeah the Rating was a Joke..this guy in Charge has no Clue about Football.....
This is why we need NFL2k Back this type of stuff is a Joke....The man needs to be let Go he does not understand Sports at all.
They Dropped Carson.....what a Tool.

maybe because leon halls knock on him was his lack of speed??? 40 times can be so misleading, especially the fact that if u can find one of him running a 4.39, i can find one of him running a 4.6...

leon hall fell in the draft because of lack of elite speed... THATS WHY

GTFO our board. Bengals are better than the Cowboys, we deserve to be overall rated at 90+, 2 Bars on Pass D and 3 on Rush D, Tank Johnson should be the low 80s, Peko should be close to a 90, Brandon Johnson should be at least an 80, Benson should be in the 90s. Theres more I could say, but I'm not going to waster my breath with an idiot like Donny Moore who wouldn't know his @$$ from a good football team playing lights out smash-mouth, in your face style football.

and one more thing, Palmer is far and wide better than Tony "The Homo" Romo

C Palmer wins in the clutch, Romo fails in the clutch.
