As if the NFL Top 100 players list wasn’t wild enough, multiple Madden ’25 video game individual quarterback grades are may be even more maddening.

At least, Kansas City Chiefs generational talent Patrick Mahomes garnered a 99 rating in the video game as opposed to being named the league’s No. 4 overall player through an unreliable voting system. Further down the Madden QB list, however, things get a little wacky.

New York Jets future Hall-of-Fame field general Aaron Rodgers, a four-time NFL MVP, was tabbed with a slightly better than mediocre 83 rating. Ranked 11th amongst his fellow active quarterbacks, Rodgers was behind both Atlanta Falcons free-agent addition Kirk Cousin and San Francisco 49ers former Mr. Irrelevant Brock Purdy. Cousins earned an 84 with Purdy pulling in an 85.

Age aside, there’s no disputing that the 40-year-old Rodgers still has more arm strength and better throwing accuracy than both Cousins and Purdy. Recovering from a torn Achilles, Rodgers doesn’t move as well as he once did, but his precision passing has been on display during Jets training camp.

Then, there’s the fact that Rodgers is only two full seasons removed from back-to-back NFL MVP awards. Cousins and Purdy have none to their names.

Purdy threw for 31 touchdowns in his second pro season. Rodgers has recorded 31+ TD passes seven times in his career. Cousins has two career seasons with more than 30 passing touchdowns.

No active quarterback is as seasoned as Rodgers, who is trying to prove he has plenty left in the tank. He’s not what he used to be, but his football IQ remains high and his ability to operate an offense is elite. By multiple accounts, he can still sling it, too.

Rodgers is better than the 83 rating he received from the Madden creators, and he’s certainly more threatening to opposing defenses than Cousins or Purdy.
