The weekly roster and ratings update for EA's Madden NFL 12 is set to go live on Friday for Week 13 for Xbox 360 and PS3 users. F or Indianapolis Colts fans, this has generally been an unwelcome time, as the team sits winless - the good players consistently find themselves falling down as the team continues to struggle, as expected. Week 13 sees a list of changes, 22 of them in all.
Nine of those 22 changes are to overall ratings, and only three of them are player increases. Wide receiver Reggie Wayne begins to move back up, from 90 to 91. This means there's six decreases though, and a few of them can be classified as significant. Safety Antoine Bethea drops from a 91 to a 90, and is in danger of falling below the 90 overall rating. Make the jump for a full list of roster and ratings changes for the Colts.
