Jaguars edge rusher Joshua Hines-Allen has a hilarious response to his Madden rating
It's that time of the year — when the NFL Top 100 comes out, which is voted by the players, and every player is upset that they are too low. I'm sure there is only one player every year who doesn't think it's wrong, and that guy is the No. 1 player. The same goes […]
It's that time of the year — when the NFL Top 100 comes out, which is voted by the players, and every player is upset that they are too low. I'm sure there is only one player every year who doesn't think it's wrong, and that guy is the No. 1 player. The same goes with the Madden ratings, where every player thinks they are too low, besides the guy who's a 99. We know that Jacksonville Jaguars edge rusher, who is now known as Joshua Hines-Allen, feels that way.
But, he has a point.
EA Sports Madden 25 has Hines-Allen, one of the best defensive players in the league last year with nearly 20 sacks, rated at a 91. Now, some of you may think that's fair, and sure, it is, but it's more about who is ahead of him.
Nick Bosa, Maxx Crosby, T.J. Watt, Micah Parsons, and Myles Garrett are all ahead of Hines-Allen ratings-wise. To me, you cannot say in good faith that Parsons and Bosa were both better than Hines-Allen last season. Sure, the others can make a case, as you could make a case that the one wearing teal was better.
But in this case, Hines-Allen definitely was better than those two last season.
And maybe he feels the same because he had a hilarious response to his Madden rating. Hines-Allen went to Twitter to post a meme from the movie 'The Wolf of Wall Street' in which the meme is Mathew McConaughey in a scene talking to Leonardo Dicaprio, talking about rookie numbers.
The reply is perfect. But, if we know Hines-Allen, he is joking about this now, but he has already made a mental note of it and is going to use that as fuel this upcoming season. So, the NFL better watch out, and they can thank Madden for what's bound to happen.
