| Sounds stupid but how does awareness affect each position , particularly RBs and QBs. How can awareness affect a Running Back, unless of course he is blocking, but how can it affect when he runs as surely you are usering him so awareness doesnt matter ? Am I right here ?

| QBs will overthrow passes less with more awareness....
Running backs will anticipate passes better while running routes, and pick up blitzes better with higher awareness. |

I'd like to believe this, but there are so many passes that WRs or RBs don't even look for or reach out for - blocks where the guy just doesn't have a clue or DBs that can't follow the WR, etc. for me to believe it has no effect. I'd imagine it's something like a percentage change that X will or will not happen based on the current situation.
I haven't been playing Madden that long, so if there is some inside info or rumors you've heard, I'd love to know. It'd be great to remove that as a statistic to rate when drafting/rating players. |

nah idk about that payton manning has 99 awareness and he still makes overthrows. If anything Awareness might effect bad snaps or where to throw the pass in traffic, but i still to hard to tell |

| The biggest proof is Jason Williams.. He was a LB w/ 87 spd, but very low awareness [36 in madden 10..].. yet he was the 2nd best LB on the Cowboys.. and now that he's gone.. many people are switching away from the Cowboys because of how bad of a hit they took..
Tyvon Branch = 88 OVR.. but 75 AWR... He's a beast but 75 AWR?? Wtf.. they just have his AWR low so they have a way to increase his OVR if he ever becomes an elite player.
There are kickers like John Carney with 98 or so awareness.. It just means you've been good at your position for a while.. but no effect on the game..

| AWR is a "filler" stat.
It only effects the overall ratings of a player. More on this later

This would lead me to the inevitable question "which other stats are just filler?" Because if you're drafting players for a franchise team you'd want to know which stats are pointless, right? |

Surely thats Play Recognition ?
These stats are all over the place - some mean something while others dont.
I agree with Black Udder's post - I would also love to know which other stats are simply fillers |
