EA Sports is teaming up with ESPN and specifically the SportsNation program again to hold another series of votes - following up campaigns like the Madden NFL 12 cover tournament and the 'traditions' for NCAA Football 12. The latest is being referred to as 'Club 100'. This time around the vote will center on which players deserve a 100 rating in five specific categories. Five players will win the right to have the 100 rating (one for each category). •Elusiveness: Charles, Peterso...

The deliberately slow rollout of Madden NFL 12 ratings continues with the latest four teams to have been broken down early this week. The completion of the NFC West leaves only the NFC North and NFC South to wrap up. Check out the rosters and ratings for the Arizona Cardinals, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks, and St. Louis Rams. The Cardinals will obviously be quite a different team with the addition of Kevin Kolb and the 49ers were early off-season losers but crawled out of the hol...

The deliberately slow rollout of Madden NFL 12 ratings continues with the latest six teams to have been broken down this week. The Titans and Jags wrap up all the teams from the AFC and are joined by the entire NFC East. Check out the rosters and ratings for the Tennessee Titans, Jacksonville Jaguars, Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, and Washington Redskins. The Eagles of course have made a number of high profile moves in the short off-season period that will strength...

The deliberately slow rollout of Madden NFL 12 ratings continues with four more teams being broken down so far this week. Only two more AFC teams remain (Jaguars, Titans) and then it'll be on to the NFC. Check out the rosters and ratings for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Cleveland Browns, Houston Texans, and Indianapolis Colts. Of these teams only the Texans look to have changed significantly from these original rosters by picking up Johnathan Joseph and Danieal Manning but losing Vonta Leach....

The deliberately slow rollout of Madden NFL 12 ratings continues with another two teams and the unveiling of the highest rated running backs. In focus today are the base rosters for the Cincinnati Bengals and Baltimore Ravens. Both teams will be losing some valuable players with the Bengals being hit especially hard - at least the Ravens were able to add the NFL's best fullback Vonta Leach - when the roster update arrives for release. Taking a look at the top rated running backs in Madden...

The deliberately slow rollout of Madden NFL 12 ratings continues with another two teams today and the unveiling of the highest rated defensive ends. The Oakland Raiders and San Diego Chargers complete the team reveals for the AFC West. The top defensive ends are Haloti Ngata (97), Julius Peppers (95), Justin Tuck (94), Jared Allen (94), Dwight Freeney (93), Robert Mathis (93), John Abraham (93), and Trent Cole (93). Again keep in mind these are the base rosters and predate all...

The deliberately slow rollout of Madden NFL 12 ratings continues with another two teams today and the unveiling of the highest rated wide receivers. The Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs are the latest teams to get the full roster reveal. The top receivers are Andre Johnson (97), Larry Fitzgerald (96), Roddy White (96), Reggie Wayne (95), Calvin Johnson (93), and Greg Jennings (93). Pretty much the guys that would've been anticipated to be at the top. Again keep in mind these ar...

As yesterday marked the start of the Madden NFL 12 ratings barrage another day brings a few more reveals. Out now are the top linebackers, the New York Jets, and the New England Patriots. Along with the previously listed Bills and Dolphins the AFC East is now complete and two new teams will be unveiled each weekday going forward. There isn't much to go on with the top linebackers in Madden 12 given the reveal has been limited to only those rated 95 or higher so there are no surprise...
