Steelers Get Some Love From Madden
PSAMP HAS MOVED! CLICK HERE TO GET TO THE BRAND NEW SITE! NOW!
Time to bitch and moan.
The Penguins have only won in the Finals when I didn't devote a post to them earlier in the day. It seems that if I write about the team, they lose.
So let's talk Madden.
The team and QB ratings all popped up (via everyone: AA, MJD, SportsGamer, With Leather and Pasta Padre), and its time to look at how our Steelers stack up.
I'm not one to obsess over Madden (although I do love to play it), but the ratings mean that Madden is closer to arrival, which means football is in the foreseeable future, which means...Championship!
I wouldn't be a true homer if I didn't include that last bit.
The Steelers are the team to beat in the North, holding a respectable 6 point lead over the Clowns. I won't even mention the Bengals and Ravens.
Big Ben still holds an edge over the other two QBs in the 2004 class. Roethlisberger's 95 rating is ahead of Elisha Manning's 93 and Douchebaggy Philip Rivers' 90. Rookie Dennis Dixon only received a 60 in speed. Did the Madden guys watch him at Oregon? Or are they factoring in that he hasn't played a game since his knee did things it shouldn't have done in a game?
Oh, and Go Steelers (the kind that play on ice tonight. I can't talk about them for fear of jinxing)!

Good! Just about everyone on xbox live likes to use a good team.
Last year that meant that most gamers choose the Patriots, Chargers, Giants, and Cowboys most of the time. On Madden '08 the Steelers are decent, but don't match up well with these teams.
I cant wait to use the Mendenhall/Parker combo as well as send some outside linebacker blitzes with Woodley and Harrison.
I wonder if they will have the new Colts stadium?
