The initial Madden Ratings are usually skewed a little heavier towards the last complete/mostly complete season the player had. For both of them, that's 2019. That 1K/1K season weighs heavy, likely pumping McCaffrey's receiving attributes to account for the difference.

Likewise, the missing attributes for receiving are likely what's keeping Henry out of the 99 club. If he gets a couple of games where he gets worked into the passing game more, he gets the bump up to 99.

lol a 1k/1k season weighs heavy but a 2k season doesn’t?

I does. Y’all think overall ratings mean to much. Wr stats are a big part of rb ratings now. Henry don’t have much. He’s still a better rb then mc tho. Especially at only running. Mc gets the boost cause his passing stats is like a wr

No they gave him a 96. How a dude who lead the league in carries, yards, and tds each of the last two seasons including the 2k last year ain't ranked #1 boggles my mind.
Ehhhh he’s a much greater running on madden then mac. It’s not even close tbh.

mac wr stats is that of a top wr so that combined with his running abilities push him that high

who cares anyway tho. Ratings gonna change week to week

Versatility, breh. :yeshrug:

Even if basing it solely on their careers as a whole, McCaffrey has amassed Henry's entire career from a receiving standpoint in a single season

The fact that McCaffrey has receiving attributes comparable to some WRs is going to give him a higher overall.

But really the overall doesn't matter that much, because how you use the player matters more. You can run up 2000 yards running the Titans offense with Henry, but he's less effective in the Panthers offense. And even though he's rated higher, McCaffrey is less less effective in power run style offenses.

But like I said, the in season ratings changes are reactionary. Let Henry turn in a couple of good receiving games, and he's getting the bump.
