    After a few weeks off there is a new Madden 11 roster update set for release tomorrow. This update takes a wider look at developments of the whole year instead of just the end of the season and the playoffs. That also means some players are being reinserted onto rosters that had previously been removed due to injuries, though some other players on the IR won't return to active placement until the final update that comes following the Super Bowl. There are also plenty of depth chart changes and...

    The post NFL week 14 roster update for Madden 11, scheduled to release as usual on Friday, turns out to be much more extensive than last week's. Andre Johnson captures the coveted 99 overall rating and Adrian Peterson has lost it dropping down to 98. Troy Polamalu, Haloti Ngata, and Champ Bailey all move to a 98 and within striking distance of the 99 before season's end. The biggest gainers this week by far are Jaguars who get 10 players up and a team rating gain, the Patriots also have a s...

Randy Moss dropped two points and now sits at 89 just in time for Kenny Britt to return from injury. More significant in this update is the roster adjustments with a number of players headed to IR and Albert Haynesworth removed due to suspension. Benefiti...

    This week's roster update for Madden 11 takes into account week 11 and week 12 of the NFL season. Two weeks worth of data on top of the first 11 games of the season makes this one of the most significant updates provided this year. Peyton Manning has lost the coveted 99 rating. Dropping a point to 98 is significant in this case as Manning has been a steady 99 in Madden for years. Another 99 from earlier in the season, Chris Johnson, drops a point to 97. A very big game followed by absolutel...

    Typically events that take place away from the action of the sport are not reflected in player ratings. A few weeks ago Madden 11 dropped the stamina rating of Donovan McNabb after he was knocked for his conditioning by his coach. That was amusing and even made sense given his history and context of ratings adjustments due to performance. Ultimately it was related to on-the-field events so in that regard it was acceptable. 2K Sports though has taken it to another level and it is a questiona...
