Frank Clark – 92 OVR

Frank Clark has an 83 OVR ranking in Madden 20. Let that sink in.

One of the most dangerous weapons of the Kansas City Chiefs defense, especially in the latter parts of the season, has an 83 overall rating in the world’s leading football simulation. The man that offensive lines see in their nightmares (and is currently the most common topic of conversation between Joe Flacco and his therapist) is ranked among the average defensive ends in the NFL. This is the man who put icing on the cake against the Texans in the divisional round, the Titans in the conference championship, and helped seal the deal against the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.

This mistake has to be rectified in Madden 21. Since EA does not know how to properly correct mistakes, expect an over-correction.

By adding nearly 10 points to his overall score, Frank Clark can be made faster, and stronger—basically as scary as his real life counterpart. This will be especially important because I believe that Chris Jones is due for a slight decrease and to be stripped of his X-Factor, meaning the Chiefs’ defense will need significant bumps to make up for that loss.
