Madden games are always goofy like that. In '05 the Skins had a shotgun formation even though Gibbs didn't have one in his playbook that year. Then last year, after Gibbs put one in, the game removed it.

yeah FB again can you believe it? These are official too. they'll have to change it with the first update. since there's no H-Back anymore, Cooley is squarely a TE.
This year's ratings are really different.
first of all, check out all the new stats. they give Straight Arm stats for chrissakes.
more importantly, they don't seem to be based on last year as much as they're PREDICTIONS of what will happen THIS year.
pretty interesting change of formula all around.

Yeah I believe they have changed the rating system this year. It was mentioned earlier that players wont be ascending to the 99 rating as easy this go round.
Its BS that they make Cooley a FB, it takes away the respect due to Sellers who is gonna be widely ignored by media but will be great this year b/c I believe
he had an involved offseason with the team.

Moss and Steve Smith have had similar career stats and they are very similar receivers...Smith only got 80 more yards than moss last year but they made his overall a 97 and moss is only a 92...whats the deal with that

They are really complimenting our draft from the other year if they think our first two picks are the best players on that team.
