Here is a rundown and small explanation of Player Ratings:
1) Strength - Key attribute for making tackles, breaking tackles, holding blocks and breaking through blocks
2) Agility - Key attribute for avoiding other players whether you're chasing them or running from them
3) Arm - QB key Attribute for getting a ball to a receiver. Higher Arm means more completions.
4) Intelligence - Key attribute for ball awareness. QB's need high INT to avoid interceptions. DB's need high INT to make interceptions.
5) Accuracy - QB accuracy with his throws. Increases completion pct and lowers interception rate.
6) Tackling - Defensive attribute for bringing down a ball carrier.
7) Speed - Key attribute for ALL players. Most important attribute for gaining yards and for chasing down ball carriers.
8) Hands - Key attribute for making catches, making blocks, and making interceptions.
9) Pass Blocking - Attribute to make successful pass blocks.
10) Run Blocking - Attribute to make successful run blocks.
11) Endurance - Key attribute for all players. Higher endurance players can stay on the field longer.
12) Kick Distance - For kickers this affects FG pct at longer distances. For Punters this affects punt distance.
13) Kick Accuracy - For kickers this affects FG pct. For Punters this affects killing the ball inside the 20.
14) Overall - This one is a relative rating. If a player is the best of his position he'll be rated towards 100. If he's just in the middle he'll be 50. If he's among the worst he'll be at the bottom.
General Notes:
Speed kills. This is the most important attribute in my opinion since if you can't get a hold of someone it doesn't matter what your other attributes are.
There are no other ratings. All checks and functions in the game are based on certain combinations of these ratings. They are all rated 1-100. Note that having high ratings does not guarantee a player leads the league in any category. Football is a team game and many results are dependent on the other players on the field.
