Panthers could be most used team in Madden

[gakonline]

I have played solely with the Panthers ever since Madden 2003 when it first went online with the PS2. I will not switch and yes there will be a lot of peeps using the Panthers this year because of the Cam effect. The same with the Redskins because of RG3, but Panthers will get more play.

Are the Carolina player ratings out?

they have released everyone's overalls except for defensive rookies for some reason. some notables:

Cam is an 89 OVR

Beast is a 93

CJ is a 91, as is Gamble

Smitty is a 95

d'lo and stew are 84's i believe and Tolbert is an 89 as a FB.

I'm looking to playing with my team again. I'm really interested in seeing what our playbooks look like.

[panthernation23]

the downfall with using Carolina is that u don't have a 6-4 receiver to catch rocket passes. Smitty is great, but in madden his height really makes it a pain to user catch over defenses.

Josh Norman man coverage is a 84. THANK GOD i will not have to start Captain.

[YoungPanthers89]

Kuechly is 83 overall

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

Louis Murphy and lafell are 6'2. gettis 6'3...You cant use smitty like a Megatron that makes guys lazy..get smitty in quick passes and he trucks and jukes out of traffic.

[Kakarot]

Its to be expected.

All I know is the Panthers are the only team I use when playing. Whoever plays me is going to have get another team or it's gonna be panthers vs panthers, because I'm not playing with another team.

Here's the link to the full player ratings if anyone's interested: http://web-vassets.ea.com/Assets/Resources/File/MADDEN13_RATINGS_REVEAL_ALL.xlsx

And for those Excel n000bzz out there...if you wanna sort it by Team (so you can check out all the Panthers together), go to "Sort & Filter" at the top right -> Custom sort -> Sort by TEAM (scroll up to the very top).

I'm still upset about Cam's deep ball.....75 OVR is a joke. Let's take a look at some of the guys with better deep accuracy than Cam (from a Madden perspective of course): TJ Yates, Ryan Lindley (rookie 6th round draft pick for the Cardinals), Terrell Pryor, John Skelton, The Golden Calf of Bristol, Andy Dalton, Brock Osweiler, Brandon Weeden, Josh Freeman...and whose company does he join among the 75 Deep Accuracy club? Ryan Tannehill, Jason Campbell, and Chad Henne. Those are apparently his equals with regards to deep passes.

Joe Adams with 90 speed is pretty disappointing too...when it comes to ratings like speed, acceleration, and strength, the Combine is the BIBLE. It's pure laziness...there's no watching tape to see a player's game speed or any of that. It all comes down to one sub-5 second event.

I think McClain and Fua are both at like 85-90 block shedding which is pretty damn generous lol, so I'll take the good with the bad I guess.

Yeah, only 85 speed though...which is a huge limitation in Madden. Captain's speed actually went up between Madden 12 and Madden 13, he's at a solid 90 now. Not saying I'm gonna start Captain over Norman...but for speedier receivers, I'd definitely have to consider it.

That's just such horseshit. I'm sorry, but I'm tweaking his deep ball to like a 90.

I have the season ticket. To tell you the truth its the same old crap. Panthers around 76 overall which isn't really good enuff to be played seriously in real competition. Cam is great but lafell has boo boo hands and will drop everything. The Wr corp. is not very good outside Steve Smith who is great,but madden has never been nice to 5'9 wrs who feed off the deep ball. No one hardly ever beats the jam which really hurts on must have downs. The defense is improved but don't look to just win with flat out good play calling. Munn is the whipping boy and get beaten almost every single down i have played with him.

Norman is a monster if he gets his hands on it, its as good as picked off. I think he has like 78 catch.

With that said the 85-86 speed is enuff to not want him on the outside. I can remember playing last night and victor cruz destroyed him pretty much every chance he wasn't in zone coverage. Gamble is a great. No complaints about him, which is great because he does his job without me having to babysit him(see munn quote). Charles Johnson is pretty much what you expect him to be. 7 times out of 10 if you hear sack on the play its King Charles.

Backs are as advertised but, the offensive line isn't as good as it's been in years past. if you hit auto reorder amini isn't even in the starting rotation. They take him out for pollack. Also Byron Bell gets the boot for Gary Williams. Madden has not done us panther fans any favors this year. hopefully we win a few early and our ratings increase. I don't think you will have many people beating down the door to play with us after the game has been out a few weeks.

[KendrickPanther]

Isn't the ratings guy a Buc fan? He probably watched us run over his Bucs and figured Cam can't go deep.

[MasterAwesome]

Yeah I forgot they gave LaFell 80 catching...he had some of the best hands in the league last year.

Another positive though is that Beason is still a 95 injury. I know last year was a fluke since he never missed a game in his career before that, but I still expected Madden to freak out and drop him 10-15 points.
