The Beta Madden team ratings came out and this is some troll level stuff. Let's see the ratings and then dig in:


Chiefs: 92
49ers: 92
Ravens: 91
Dolphins: 89
Cowboys: 88
Lions: 88
Bengals: 87
Browns: 87
Eagles: 87
Jets: 86
Steelers: 86
Bills: 85
Buccaneers: 84
Falcons: 84
Vikings: 83
Texans: 83
Saints: 83
Chargers: 82
Rams: 82
Jaguars: 82
Colts: 82
Packers: 81
Bears: 81
Raiders: 81
Seahawks: 80
Titans: 80
Patriots: 80
Broncos: 79
Panthers: 79
Commanders: 78
Cardinals: 76
Giants: 75

The 49ers are the 2nd best roster in the NFL despite absolutely getting worst talent wise and finishing last??

The Bills below the Dolphins and the Jets? Also what Dolphin / Jet fan felated the game designers?

The Browns are the 8th best roster in the NFL?? Ahead of the Eagles???

I want to complain about the Cardinals being the 2nd worst team in the NFL but then Washington is the third worst?? The absolute favorites to win the NFC East??

and BOOM!! We are talking about Madden 2026...
you fell for the hook.
No way they release the game with those ratings. they will be updated before the season starts. Fortunately that crew tends to update as the season progresses too.

I mean, tbh, I don’t think Washington’s roster is even good. Actually think it’s meh. Jayden is just that special.
They will be an interesting watch for sure. In terms of roster, I don't think they are as good as Dallas. Obviously Daniels had an amazing season. That said, year 2 is a different animal for young QBs and the league adjusts.

EA Sports is in the last year of their monopoly with the NFL. If we don't buy it en masse, we might see some real competition in the next year or two.

There are alternatives. There is a free-to-play new game called Maximum Football, there are tons of PC emulators for Xbox and PS3 where you can play the old NFL2k5 with updated rosters (check operationsports forum), and if you have to, there are inexpensive older copies of Madden physical copies for a few bucks on Ebay.

In all of those games, the outside WRs actually get open and safeties don't undercut every open route causing unnecessary controller projectiles.

There are options. But Madden has always been the best...with NCAA be a close second.
of course, 2007 was the last one I played...still got it around here somewhere.

Madden has NEVER been the best. Not by a long shot. That’s why they pay the NFL for the exclusivity contract, so they can continue to put out mediocre content year after year with no competition.

Crap take.
Maybe you preferred Tecmo Bowl? Please. Madden has always been the cream of the crop. Not every edition was great. But they were still functionally better than the competition.

had to quit madden some years back - i was too good - talked too much ish - ultimately lost another good friend after suggesting he quit his job - find a way to travel back in time - prevent his own birth - brought his mom into it haven't seen him since but in my own defense - he really was a bad player - did him a favor - before that another guy chucked his controller at me (but im a ninja)

For pro football simulators, you might be right, but Madden was rarely the best football game in their own company. NCAA Football was always superior in terms of gameplay and innovation. It got throttled by NIL, and then Madden, predictably, ground to a halt. I remember the old 2K games on dreamcast being better than Madden, also.

Tecmo Bowl is still fun as hell to play even decades later. I spent way too many hours playing Tecmo Bowl and Punch Out as a kid in the late 80s.

What competition? That's kind of the point. EA has an exclusive license, and it's stifled any innovation or true improvement. It's basically a $70 roster update.

they only have exclusive license for the team logos and names...anybody can make a football game.

who cares if the team name is the sacramento saturns or whatever so long as the gameplay is good.
