Re: Hester earns 100 speed rating in Madden '08
 

is there such a thing as a perfect player? i dont think so

Re: Hester earns 100 speed rating in Madden '08
 

99 is as high as it USED to go

Re: Hester earns 100 speed rating in Madden '08
 

yeah it is crazy

Re: Hester earns 100 speed rating in Madden '08
 

So are they saying Hester is the fastest player in NFL history? I don't think that's true.

Re: Hester earns 100 speed rating in Madden '08
 

I don't look at it as being perfect. I would just say that in comparrison to other players in pads maneuvering the field he is the fastest. With that being said, the strongest player should have 100 strenght, Peyton Manning should have 100 Awareness, and so on and soforth. Every other players attributes by category should be curved off of the one who is the best at that particular attribute. For Instance, if Devin Hester is 100 speed, then hypothetically Deangelo Hall should be 99.

Meanwhile, Jason Campbell will earn a 100 in the new "Probably Misplaced Hope of Rabid Fanbase" rating, Ladell Betts gets a 100 in "Inability to Read Marketplace Before Leaving Free Agency", and Adam Archuletta scores 100 in "Inexplicably Still Has Fans After Jailraping Salary Cap."

Man you know its the offseason when headlines like this show up. By the way EA Sports doesn't seem to realize that being the cover athlete on Madden is a career killer. Personally I would like to see Romo, Owens, or Westbrook on the cover. Better yet put Madden on the cover.

As the anticipation starts to build for the unveiling of the Madden NFL 08 cover athlete later this month, take a look back at the men who already know what it feels like to hold that coveted position. Gallery

I think they should leave him a '99' incase someone else comes into the league and is faster...which is definitely possible.

I bet Darrell Green was faster.

This is nothing more than a marketing ploy to attract attention and get people to "upgrade" to 2008.

I believe Madden was on the cover for several years.

I don't believe in curses, or superstitions, but I wouldn't want to be on the cover.

Re: Hester earns 100 speed rating in Madden '08
 

Yes, Madden WAS on the cover. And the curse bit him too. Rather, he bit the curse, ate the whole thing, digested it and became the fat slob he is today.

Re: Hester earns 100 speed rating in Madden '08
 

LAST YEAR I WAS PRAYING WE TOOK HIM AND WE TRADED UP FOR Mc Intosh, not sure how he is going to pan out.........but I knew Hester was going to be special. and thats one fast Mutha..............shut your mouth.

Uh Yeah, Ever heard of Sean Taylor, he's big, fast, can hit and cover, and used to be a running back, can play wideout.....and this is coming from his head coach in the NFL (JG) plus he has a since of how plays are going to play out, besides that....he stinks

Re: Hester earns 100 speed rating in Madden '08
