This years „fake“ OVR
Quote from cougarob >> He may have picked a bad example but OVRs are extremely fishy this year. Here's a good one as both players have the exact same chems:

Martin is +2 speed, +2 strength, +6 accel, +2 run block, +50 lbs Little is +6 agility, +1 pass block
Makes no sense that Little is a 95.
Now that is a good example of two cards with equal overalls where one is clearly superior.
Quote from pastacal >> Just pulled 92 DiMarco out of Playoff Plack from WL. Instantly compared to my Twitch Okoye 90 OVR because obviously he should be my new starter. But guess what... he is worse in almost EVERY important stat.
What is wrong with EAs fake overalls this year selling cards as 95 OVR when they would have been a 87 last year. These stats are a pure joke...
https://www.muthead.com/18/players/compare/21167/28537 They’re different FBs. Okoye is a bulldozer and Dimarco is a receiving/blocking back. I’d rather EA give us that kind of variety in stats.
Quote from pastacal >> +6 SPD, +11 STR, +2 AWR, -1 RBK, +4 CAR, +7 SFA, +3 TRK for Okoye, so yeah...
I’ve noticed run block and catch have way more to do with a fb ovr then running stats, case in point oop bettis... but fb’s aren’t considered primary ball carriers, more blockers and check down options
Quote from pastacal >> +6 SPD, +11 STR, +2 AWR, -1 RBK, +4 CAR, +7 SFA, +3 TRK for Okoye, so yeah...
again, these are all carrying stats... like we've said, Okoye is a good carrying back, DiMarco is more of a receiving back.

I know its different stats or whatever but I created Woodsen, Eric Allen and Ramsey in the roster section. Woodsens stats bumped him to a 97 overall ranking while the other two were 95. All 95's are not created equally
+6 SPD, +11 STR, +2 AWR, -1 RBK, +4 CAR, +7 SFA, +3 TRK for Okoye, so yeah...
I made a thread like this about QBs and almost everyone on here freaked out.
Tread lightly, sir. And good luck :lol:
Are you basing overall strictly on card art? Cause the stats speak for themselves
I think most of us get to caught up in the shiny new card and stats. For a SB challenge I had to put in a SB player and put in a 85 wr malcomMithcell instead of 93 Irvin and forgot i did that.. Mitchell gets open on the same slot routes and has yet to drop a pass in 4 H2H games. I noticed it about halfway thru the first game but left him in and then kept him in the line up just to see. Made me stop and think about the "higher stat/overall " sales pitch..
does it really matter that much?

Quote from pastacal >> Quote from JordanF0705 >> if that bothers you, just go into create-a-player mode in fill out all the stats for that Twitch Okoye, bet he doesn't register at 90 overall.
Maybe you didnt understand my point. The 92 OVR has worse stats than the 90 OVR. What does that have to do with Okoye also not being a 90??
