Player Ratings Update: Week 6

Week 6 in the NFL produced three overtime thrillers, we’ve got one undefeated team left in the league, and our Madden NFL 22 cover athletes Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes lead the NFL in passing yards (2,064) and passing touchdowns (18) respectively.

Epic runs, crazy catches, and incredible plays abounded all over the NFL during Week 6. And the Madden NFL 22 Ratings Performance Adjustor team is working hard to tweak, refine, and polish ratings across the league based on those IRL performances.

Let’s take a closer look at some key Ratings Updates as we ready up for Week 7. 

Week 6: Who’s Up

Derrick Henry | HB | Tennessee Titans

A seemingly unstoppable force, Derrick Henry scored three touchdowns for the second straight week on Monday night against one of the best defenses in the NFL. He’s now racked up three, three-touchdown games this year, and has rushed for over 100 yards in all but one outing. Perhaps a bit overdue, the Madden Ratings Adjustor team is bumping Henry up to a 98 OVR ahead of Week 7. 

Donovan Peoples-Jones | WR | Cleveland Browns

On the verge of a breakout season, Donovan Peoples-Jones has seemingly become the WR of choice for Baker Mayfield in Cleveland. In his last two games, Peoples-Jones has posted a 9/171/2 line and hauled in a 57-yard hail mary at the end of the second half on Sunday. The Madden Ratings Adjustor team has taken note, hence the boost this week.

Leonard Fournette | HB | Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay running back has strung together three solid games, and he’s coming off his first two-touchdown performance of the season. It helps that Leonard Fournette plays in an offense that has been absolutely dominant with Tom Brady under center, consistently driving into the red zone multiple times per game. Fournette has been productive as a pass-catcher out of the backfield as well, with 16 receptions over his last three games.

Week 6: Who’s Down

Jared Goff | QB | Detroit Lions

There’s no way to sugar coat Jared Goff’s performance over the past few games. He’s thrown just two total touchdown passes over his last four outings, he’s failed to throw for more than 299 yards in all but one game this season, and his Detroit Lions are sporting an 0-6 record. Brutal stuff, hence the drop in Goff’s rating ahead of Week 7.

Daniel Jones | QB | New York Giants

Another struggling quarterback, Daniel Jones threw three interceptions on Sunday. Like Goff, Jones only has two total touchdown passes over his last four outings, and has thrown four picks during that span. To his credit, the Giants have lost pretty much all of their main offensive weapons to injury, but the Madden Ratings Adjustor team is still dropping his rating ahead of Week 7.
