Ok, apparently Madden 11 team ratings have been released. Link to story/ratings here. 

Vikings are 88 with Favre. Packers are 87.

EDIT: Also... How did the Lions get such a bad rating?! Worse than the Bucs, Browns, Raiders and KC? IMO, they improved FAAAAR more than those 4 teams combined. But, I'm of the belief that the Lions will have really close to a .500 season, if not better.

I agree, Formo. I think the Lions will be a lot better this year than last.

EA really kills me with these ratings because the way they factor them are complete garbage.
Lions should be above all those teams because they made the biggest improvements in the off-season so far.

And for the record, Lions finish above the Bears this season.

This kind of statement bothers me a bit. How many teams do we see sign big name free agents that don't do a thing for their overall team? Fact is, we don't know how they will fit in to the grand scheme of things. No one does, until it happens. So why should a team that made a lot of changes (e.g. Seahawks) be rewarded for change? You make change because the previous was not working, meaning bad results.

I don't know how they are should be compiled. I just don't think any team should be given 'points' because they made what appears to be positive changes. The grass isn't always greener on the other side.

What are the Lions rated now? As far as I'm concerned they should have a better rating at least offensively.

You now have Stafford in his second year as QB, Calvin Johnson one of the best WR's out there, Pettigrew in his second year, Kevin Smith and Jahvid Best in the backfield. How does your team not improve this year?

Not to mention they drafted Suh. I'm not saying the Lions will be better this year even though I think they will. I'm saying their Madden rating should be better lol.
