Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Madden 09' Team/Player Ratings Released

In case anyone is as obsessed with Madden as I am i'm sure they'll be interested to see that the new ratings were leaked. Some notables for the Bears.

  • Grossman is a 79, Orton comes in at 76.
  • Benson and Forte are both 80s. Peterson is a 78.
  • Booker gets an 82, Hester 81, Earl Bennet at 79.
  • Clark is still better than Olsen by 86 - 85.
  • Our starting line is Williams (79) Metcalf (78) Kreutz (93) Garza (85) and Tait (86)
  • The defense is especially sick with Lach (98) Briggs (95) Harris (95) Tillman (91) Vash (91) Ogun (89) Mike Brown (87).
  • We only have 2 defensive starters coming in under an 80 rating..Hillenmeyer and Dvoracek, both at 79s.
  • Our overall team rating is pretty poor at 80. The Pack are a 91 and Vikings a 90.

Playing D will be fun again

Not so much on Offense. I’ll be lining up two TEs a lot.

hopefully they do a better job of updating the player ratings as the season progresses this year.

i feel ya

i know o-line was a big need, but if i’d known we were gonna pick a runningback in the first 3 rounds anyway i’d have gone with Shard in the first and o-line in the second. oh well, all the bear propoganda has us believing Forte is ready to start already, so i hope it is true and not just media spin by the Bear brass.

I was also super pissed after the draft

but now I am kind of relieved we didnt go that route. I doesnt really make sense to risk another high draft pick on the rb position without knowing the line will be at least a little better.

Chris Williams was a great pick

But when Mendenhall fell to the late first round, we had a chance to trade back into the first round and didn’t. Apparently, some key member of the braintrust had Forte ranked higher than Mendenhall. I hope they’re right.

just like the real world

all the bears need now is to trade for a qb, a rb, and some receivers and they are ready to compete.
