Isn't a "normalization" process run before the start of every season? So 100 contact rating isn't just 100 contact rating, and if every player had 100 contract rating on every team that would essentially be "average" not good. If it is average it is designed to (with a high enough sample size) equal out to what a typical league average number would be in the corresponding counting/average stat. This leads directly to wild variations when you are near the league average.

So I think what you're describing is the fact that contact/eye/avoid K is once again the preferred stats so everyone runs cards high in them, effectively making them worse, which in turn requires higher amounts to make it good again.

At this point to be have a good contact rating in diamond+ we're talking 105-110.
