Madden 16: 8 Most Shocking NFC Player Ratings

The yearly ritual of poring through Madden ratings is upon us, and that means EA's next installment of the game is imminently set to launch, as well as the NFL season itself. Madden 16 promises to be a fantastic edition with a host of tweaks, modes and features set to improve an already impressive formula, and EA have unveiled some of the most important ratings for the new game which launches next week. We've already taken a look at the most shocking AFC player ratings, now it's time to reverse and analyse the NFC, with some hugely impressive franchises raring to go ahead of the new season. The Seahawks and Packers are comfortably the top two teams in the conference, with 91 and 90 ratings respectively, while the Bucs sit at the bottom of the NFC with 74, despite their new Number 1 Draft Pick QB, Jameis Winston. The NFC South had an infamously terrible year as a whole last season, and that has been reflected in the ratings, with each of the four teams being dropped by a staggering 17 points combined. The Saints took the biggest hit, falling from 86 to 78. So ahead of the new season, here are the individual players with the most shocking ratings in the NFC, whether they've been underrated, overrated, or just generally based on knee-jerk decisions.
