Madden 2004 Shafts the Brownies

Madden 2004 Shafts the Brownies
I know the Browns were probably not as good as a few non-playoff teams last year, but the fact remains they finished 9-7, were in 15/16 games, and were certainly among the most entertaining teams in the league. So the new Madden 2004 video game, which despite being only a game is huge business and reflects the state of the league nicely each year, ranks the Browns as the second-worst team in the league!! WTF?!?! Granted, there is not an insurmountable gap between the worst teams and the mediocre teams, but these ratings are pretty absurd. Even if you think the Browns will not be as good as last season there's no way the finish ahead of only the Cardinals. No way.
