Fans across the world are eagerly anticipating the unveiling of Madden NFL 23, which is due to be released in August 2022. With the game just around the corner, Madden has released the player ratings of some of the best players in the league, much to the outrage of many fans.

While they've got plenty of players’ ratings spot on, they've offended at least as many fans as they've pleased.

Here are five laughable player ratings in Madden NFL 23.

#5 - Maxx Crosby, rated 87

Las Vegas Raiders edge rusher Maxx Crosby only comes in at an 87 rating in Madden 23, much to the shock of the NFL world. Crosby had an excellent season in 2021, registering eight sacks as well as setting career highs in solo tackles (36), assisted tackles (20), and combined tackles (56). He was named a second-team All-Pro, as well as being voted into his first Pro Bowl.

Listed as a left outside linebacker, his 87 rating is only good enough for eighth-best in that position and is the same rating as Matthew Judon.

#4 - Christian McCaffrey, rated 96

There is no doubt Christian McCaffrey is one of the best running backs in the league when healthy. But after playing just 10 games over the previous two seasons, is he worthy of a 96 overall rating?

McCaffrey’s 96 rating puts him joint second in the league with Nick Chubb, trailing only Derrick Henry of the Tennessee Titans. Jonathan Taylor of the Indianapolis Colts, who many had as their 2021 MVP, finds himself as a 95 overall. McCaffrey’s overall rating has left many fans bemused.
