Significant rating deviations is palpable at the Madden National Football League 16 especially for the Manning brothers this Week 5.
Digital & Trend's Nicholas Mojica reported the latest roster update for week 5 as the Manning brothers' rating go poles apart. Younger brother Eli is on the rise while Peyton is going downhill.
For two weeks, Eli hurled three touchdowns and one interception while his brother has done no touchdown pass. Mojica added that as a result, Eli got +1 OVR, Throw Accuracy and Throw Accuracy Medium. Whereas Peyton is down -1 OVR to 90, -2 Awareness and -1 Throw Accuracy Short and Deep.
According to Digital & Trends, aside from Eli, the ratings of quarterbacks Matt Hasselbeck and Andy Dalton also go up three and two points respectively. However, few notable going down ratings belong to Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints as he went down three points while Jason Whitten of the Dallas Cowboys went down two.
The Bengals QB Dalton rising could be predicted, wrote iDigital Times. Before the season started, it was not expected that Cincinnati Bengals would be 5-0. Dalton lead his team to come-from-behind win against Seattle Seahawks in overtime. The Cincinnati playcaller went 30/44 for 331 yards and 2 TDs. Electronic Arts Sports and Madden 16 noticed Dalton's hot start to the 2015 Season.
Meanwhile, iDigital Times tipped off that Colts QB Matt Hasselbeck has relieved Andrew Luck because of injury. Hasselbeck has accomplished very well steering the Colts to a win. His performance over the last two weeks has led EA Sports to up Hasselbeck's overall rating to 77.
