Below, you can see the top 10 teams in Madden 26. The list certainly includes some shifts from last year and overall fan expectations.
Baltimore Ravens - 93 OVR
The Baltimore Ravens come in as the top overall-rated team in Madden 26, despite not making it to Championship Weekend during the 2024-25 NFL season. Not much has changed for the Ravens over the offseason, as they've brought back most of their roster and added some key players, such as wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and defensive back Chidobe Awuzie. In addition to being a 93 OVR team, Baltimore is rated an 87 on defense and a 94 on offense.
Philadelphia Eagles - 91 OVR
The defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles are the second-highest rated team in Madden 26 at 91 OVR. While this might seem odd at first glance, the Eagles lost a number of starting players from their Super Bowl-winning roster during the offseason. Even though Philly did resign some key players, those losses have clearly affected their Madden rating. The Eagles are also rated a 94 on offense and aren't rated in the top 10 on defense.
Kansas City Chiefs - 90 OVR
The Super Bowl runners-up are next, as the Kansas City Chiefs are rated 90 OVR in Madden 26. Even after being demolished in the Super Bowl by the Eagles and losing some top-notch talent during the offseason, KC continues its streak of being rated in the 90s. While quarterback Patrick Mahomes is certainly a significant reason for those consistent ratings, the Chiefs' offense and defense are both rated 89 in Madden 26.
Buffalo Bills - 89 OVR
The Buffalo Bills are coming off another heartbreak of a season, as they lost to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship yet again. Reigning NFL MVP quarterback Josh Allen remains the heart and soul of the Bills, but there are certainly some question marks surrounding him heading into the 2025 season. Nevertheless, Buffalo is rated highly on both sides of the ball, with a 90 on offense and an 85 on defense.
Minnesota Vikings - 88 OVR
The Minnesota Vikings are the first real surprise team on the list so far. Even though Minnesota put together a masterful regular season in 2024, they're basically starting a rookie at quarterback in J.J. McCarthy after moving on from Sam Darnold in the offseason. McCarthy's play will almost certainly dictate how the Vikings' season unfolds, and that's reflected in the team's offensive rating, which isn't in the top 10 in Madden 26. The team's defense has an 84 rating, however.
Detroit Lions - 88 OVR
While the Vikings and Lions have the same OVR, EA Sports chose to place Minnesota over Detroit in the official ratings reveal. This is slightly peculiar given that the Lions have the same team defense rating as the Vikings, 84, and a much higher offense rating at 91. Regardless, Detroit suffered some serious losses during the offseason, as both of the team's coordinators moved on to greener pastures and several key defensive players departed as well. We'll have to wait and see which 88 OVR team comes out on top in the NFC North.
