why isn't JJ Jansen a 99 overall at long snapper?

I know it is a joke, but I will answer it anyway. 

Madden doesn't even consider that a real position.  It hurts my heart to cut him every time I start a franchise because he is rated a 37 overall or something ridiculous.

If it's in the game, it's in the game.  Unless its long snappers.

EA is absolutely terrible and I hate that it is the only choice for an NFL game. 

I heard a while back they were letting the license expire and that was changing because their head is so big they think they don't need it.  I don't know why they have this attitude, but I would love a new edition of NFL2K or even Blitz.

Yeah unfortunately sports games peaked around 2005.  Then all the exclusivity agreements ruined everything.

I would be so hype about a NFL front office game similar to Out of the Park Baseball.

When you contractually eliminate all competition you get stagnation. EA has no market incentive to improve their product. They can't sell a ton of copies simply by being literally the only game in town.

Ironically 2K did the same thing to baseball in response.  EA's MVP 2005 Baseball is one of the best baseball video games ever made.  In response to EA killing NFL competition, 2K secured the exclusive third party rights to baseball and killed off the best baseball game.  It's bad for everyone.

Bad for everyone except the company holding the exclusive rights. It's great for them. They don't care about producing a quality product, they care about extracting maximum profit.

As bad as that was 20 years ago, now we're in the era of ultimate team.  Everything's got some stupid card game that drives all the revenue.

Jonathan Brooks, a dude that has all of like 10 carries, is higher overall than Bryce...

It's not really if you have the time to sink into it. NMS players can still have a good squad that can compete with almost anyone. 

Of course you will run into a few P2W players.
