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.
