Madden NFL 11: Team Ratings Revealed
From the Saints to the Rams, check out the ratings for all 32 teams in EA Sports’ upcoming football game.
The Madden NFL 11 machine keeps on rolling.

The biggest winner on the list is obviously the Washington Redskins, who will benefit in Madden NFL 11, thanks to the addition of new quarterback Donovan McNabb, among other players. On the other end of the spectrum, the biggest loser is the Arizona Cardinals, who look to suffer in a big way, thanks to the retirement of quarterback Kurt Warner and the loss of wideout Anquan Boldin to the Ravens.
Here's the full list, organized by division:
