Madden 22 team ratings: Tampa Bay Buccaneers listed as top-rated team
EA revealed the team ratings for all 32 NFL teams in Madden 22 today, pulling back the curtain a little further for this year's iteration of the game.
Unsurprisingly, the reigning Super Bowl champions Tampa Bay Buccaneers lead the way with an overall rating of 92. Here is an in-depth look at the best team in the game, as well as ratings for the other 31 teams in Madden 22.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers have the goods in Madden 22
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Offense - 92 overall
In Madden 22, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have the second-highest offensive rating, which is largely down to their Super Bowl exploits and them retaining most of last year's roster. Tom Brady, the most accomplished quarterback of all time, will once again lead the unit. Last season, Brady threw 40 touchdown passes and 12 interceptions.
The roster is also loaded at wide receiver and tight end. The team has Rob Gronkowski, OJ Howard, Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Antonio Brown, among others. Gronkowski may be 32 years old, but he is still playing at a high level. OJ Howard was the starting tight end for the Buccaneers before Gronkowski arrived, so he is also a solid option as a backup.
Mike Evans has earned over 1,000 yards in every season of his career. Chris Godwin is also coming off a solid year in which he earned over 800 yards and seven touchdowns. Antonio Brown is not the same receiver he was five years ago, but as a depth piece, few teams can boast such quality.
The Buccaneers' offense promises to be unstoppable on the field as well as in Madden 22.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense - 90 overall
In addition to boasting a top offense, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers also have one of the best defenses in Madden 22.
Again, the Super Bowl win likely laid a precedent for this, as the Tampa Bay defense had Patrick Mahomes running for his life on seemingly every down during the game.
Their defense has a good mix of veterans and young stars. Shaquil Barrett, Jason Pierre-Paul, Vita Vea and Ndamukong Suh are returning for another season with the Buccaneers.
