Philadelphia Eagles: Comparing Madden 19 player rankings to other teams
Fans of EA Sports’ Madden game can’t stop talking about player rankings, especially in the case of the Philadelphia Eagles.
If you’re a Philadelphia Eagles fan and a gamer, you don’t have to be schooled on what we’re discussing when we say Madden NFL 19. For some, the hobby of choice is fantasy football. For others, the preference is placing a controller in their hand and getting lost for hours, whether that be with the Playstation or XBOX gaming systems.
Who are we kidding? Who isn’t doing both these days?
Team rankings are all the rage at the current moment.
Just in case you haven’t heard, the Eagles top all NFL teams this season with an overall ranking of 90. That places them six points higher than their co-stars from Super Bowl LII, the New England Patriots. The New York Jets are in the cellar with an overall team ranking of 72.
Take a look at that and where every other team fell.

Also among their top ten rated players on the game are Jason Peters (87), Alshon Jeffery (87), Lane Johnson (87), Michael Bennett (86), Ronald Darby (86) and Carson Wentz (85).
