Every_single_D-Tackle is 86 in Madden. 86 is backup rating. There are 88-ranked free agent DTs in Madden.

I don't care how good he is, adding depth to the MLB spot for the Vikings is only more reason why we will be balanced as fuck next year and will be the best team in the league.

Now that you've got me thinking I guess I'll pick who I think will be the best team in each division next year:

AFC East: Pats of course, but hopefully the JETS will make a run and at least get a wild card
AFC North: Steelers
AFC South: Colts but pressure from surprise team HOUSTON TEXANs
AFC WEST: Dever

NFC East: Eagles
NFC North: Lions!
NFC South: Falcons
NFC West: ummm.. Seahawks by default

On paper, every year, we should be fucking amazing.

We had the talent last year, without the coaching.

This year, we have more talent...

With even less coaching.

Burress will help improve the Giants obviously, but hes not all that. He wasnt even the best WR on the Steelers.

Nervous Ferrett you are just retarded, on a team that had probably the worst linebacking in the league, you get a former first round draft pick to play MLB and then get a solid veteran to help him out its an improvement, and our secondary should be one of the best in the league and we have a pretty good d-line. Add Derrick Johnson from Texas with the seventh round draft pick, one of the best quarterbacks in the league, two solid wide recievers and three running backs who could have 1000 yard seasons individually with a good o-line and you have a very solid overall team.

Like Bean said, on paper we have a very good team, and right now is paper season, quit bitching about what I said last year because thats the way it looked and I am not the only one who thought so.

The fact of the matter is, the Vikings are going to be FUCKING SICK on Madden next year, and that's what's important.

Pep better be 99, for sure. The HBs will be underrated, but maybe this time Dixon is gonna get some love despite his age. Wiggins will get love, Kleinsasser won't be on IR, Burleson better fucking be over 90. Hopefully Braylon Edwards becomes a Vike and has +95 speed, that will make our offense PERFECT in Madden.

Then that defense. OMG OMG OMG. After preseason and mini camp, Darrion Scott should be pretty good, then :love: the perfect defense.

I am so pumped for the draft and for next season now with all these signings, even though we are only mad good on paper :(

Sam Cowart :o

I thought Napoleon Harris was a MLB, I dunno who is gonna play where in the linebackers now.

they had a good team on paper minus a QB which made their team suck balls
AlphaBean

like half of an offensive line, a home run HB in a ball control system with no Tight End, a rookie safety and a nobody at the other safety... um, one defensive lineman?

Redskins are a shit paper team. Good linebackers, a couple good OL, an elite HB and two pretty good underachieving WRs.

Too bad about Sean Taylor. I :heart: him but he was a rookie in a very tough position.

New England isn't that awesome on paper but look at them. STFU before I destroy you.

No on paper, the eagles have a very solid team. But there are teams that are better, Minnesota being one of them. On paper. Which is to say, talent-wise, with the right coach, these teams could rank among the best of all time.

Belicheck, with his staff in tact, coaching one of these "marquee" teams on paper, would probably win every game 80-3. Nobody is saying paper counts for anything, but that's all we have right now -- if the players all play to the best of their ability, and stay healthy, then on paper, the chances are good. For now.

And most importantly -- on madden. :love:

<font color=goldenrod>I wish Brock was in my game. :(

I also wish that they'd make it possible to accurately update the rosters without having to download them. Fucking "Minimum Team Requirements"</font> :foc:

Some of the opening weekend games have been announced.

The Thursday Night opener will be Oakland @ New England.

On Sunday, Fox's main game will be Dallas :love: @ San Diego

ESPN's Sunday nighter is Indy @ Baltimore *ORASMS*

And then on the first monday night game of the season, Philly @ Atlanta

We haven't even had the draft yet and I am going crazy for these games.

Hey speaking of Madden, can you niggas tell me HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO BOOST A D-LINEMAN'S STATS?

I can dominate with any player with speed. I can put a HB in on goalline, and throw short slants to any receiver or tight end with any QB. I put Brock in at offensive lineman for over half the game in the playoffs, rushed for 200 yards behind him, and he didn't go up at all.

He was rated 19 as a guard.

HOW DO I BOOST BROCK. He sucks and I can't change that.

The draft is looking interesting now. Insider has the 49ers trading their pick for Phillip Rivers (probably more complicated then that) but then the Chargers would have the first pick...they could take Braylon or something? They could be sick, that'd be perfect for both teams IMO. Then on Sports Center they just said that Tampa Bay would take a QB if one was still available, so a lot of stuff could be changed. Also it looks like the Dolphins might trade down now too.

I remember in 1999 when people said Randy Moss wasn't the best WR on the Vikings...
