A dual threat who saved his best for the end

Tiki Barber got better with age, piling up rushing and receiving yards late in his career to become the Giants' all-time leading rusher. The Virginia product was quick, elusive, and a genuine dual threat out of the backfield.

Madden had him at 75 and a 94 by the 2006 edition, off seasons of more than 1,800 rushing yards. Three Pro Bowls and more than 10,000 yards later, he retired at his peak.

How to read these: Each row is the player’s rating in that year’s Madden, listed by the NFL season it covers (Madden NFL 2001 = the 2000 season). Madden sets its ratings before the season is played, so they reflect the previous season’s performance - a player’s breakout year tends to show up as a jump in the following year’s game.
About the starred rows*: Several early Madden releases rated players on a 1-15 scale, as printed in the game manuals, rather than the modern 0-99. We store those ratings converted to 0-99 (each manual point is about 6.6) so you can compare players across eras at a glance - use the 0-99 / 1-15 toggle above the table to see the original numbers on those seasons. EA didn’t publish an overall rating in those games, so the OVR* values for those years are our own calculation, the average of the player’s two best ratings.
Note: Some Madden releases tracked fewer attributes than others. Cells shown as - were not published by EA that year.
