At 96 overall, Marshawn Lynch is the highest-rated running back in the EA Sports’ upcoming “Madden 16” video game. Adrian Peterson, Jamaal Charles, DeMarco Murray, and Le’Veon Bell fill out the rest of the top five.
Clearly, Lynch is in some great company. But the Seahawks got picky and decided to tweet at EA Sports asking why his trucking rating was 98 instead of 99. In hindsight, that really didn’t work out in their favor.

EA Sports soon responded with an absolutely brutal diss regarding the infamous decision not to give Lynch the ball at the end of Super Bowl XLIX.
