    Hillis goes from relative nobody to cover to Madden and a fat ass endorsement deal...gotta love America!

    I would have liked to see Vick on the cover too, but EA would have dealt with a bunch of shit from anti-Vick people

    whites voted for him, it was a lock, vick already been on the cover.

    I heard he might not even start this season anyway and only started last year because cleveland had no choice.

    everyone is aware they've been having a single-elimination voting tournament to determine this year's cover, right?

    and that the largest messageboard in the world decided they wanted to put Hillis on as a joke?

    good for EA for sticking with their word and actually following through, they're probably lucky it wasn't Jake Long that 4chan chose to elect. lol

    Hillis is best in NFL... So are Browns. Smart move by Madden makers.

    Hillis? Is this the most surprising cover ever? Has to be doesn't it. Why not somebody like Aaron Rodgers?

    Well being a Browns fan, this might be the only thing we win this upcoming season if there is one.

    Hillis is a beast of a Player and guaranteed if he played for the over rated Cowboys, would have received more media attention and they would have made the Playoffs lol.

    If you dont know who Hillis is then you dont know football. Everybody knows this guy has talent. Has some fumbling problems he has to correct, but a great Player nonetheless.

    I wouldnt have had a problem with Rodgers being on the cover if fans voted him in.

    I am not even worried about a Madden curse for Hollis or the Browns.

    They cant get any cursed than they are now or what their franchise history has been.

    I hate you John Elway ...HHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAATE YOU!

    Hillis was a beast this year.
    Deserves it. If you dont know who he is youre either
    A-Retarded or
    B- You don't follow the NFL too well.

    Hillis is a human bowling ball.

    Since Aaron Rodgers isn't on the cover and that Madden curse doesn't apply to him, The Packers has a shot of repeating another Super Bowl win.

    Sam's right,

    It was a no brainer to have Rodgers on the cover. It sort of goes to Madden's credibility. Somebody in marketing goofed.

    Good for Hillis glad he won. Course i wouldn't of mind if Vick won especially if the madden curse is for real. Nothing better seeing that guy layed out at midfield suffering a injury that left him paralyzed god i would love to see that.
