SS- Not saying it's gospel, but confirming a customers request is(plus other evidence), shall we say, fairly positive from one of the lead Developers that CFM will be improved. I really don't think that is a stretch, wouldn't you agree?

Absolutely agree, even though you were the one who originally posted it in wasn't specifically referring to you you're one of the posters i really like to have level headed discussions with on here.

I don't think there's any coach that retired or has made such a huge footprint that they'll be on the cover.

I could see it being Peyton Manning - but why would they build it up?

Maybe it's the Panther's team doing the dab.

Maybe it's Jared Goff - to hype the LA fan base and NFL pushes it HARD.

The big concern though, is direction. All of the effort and focus wont matter (to me at least) if they continue down the RPG path of XP and goals. My hope is that they bifurcate the mode as 2K did.

Seeing that people are saying it will be a short clip I'm calling for Cam Newton on the cover and a clip of him scoring and Dabbing in the end zone.

Also, I think this

confirms its not him.

[Armor and Sword]

Antonio Brown would be my pick. Best player in the game today.

The poster child for hard work and heart.

Love that guy.

I think i would puke if they put him on the cover ,especially "dabbing".Dude is a poor sport. I got no love for that. Talk all that smack all year about " if you dont like me dancing then stop me" then when someone does he goes and crys in the corner .Id like to think the NFL doesn't want a posterchild like that, but then again, maybe they do.

Maybe the real reason there's no cover vote is because EA does want Cam on the cover. With so many people who don't like him for said reasons, including myself, they didn't want to leave it in the hands of the people.

If he ends up on the cover, theory confirmed!
