NOpe the curse was every cover guy got hurt and missed significant playing time. 2010 they had 2 guys and Troy was the bearer of the curse. The only guy's in recent memory who cleared the curse were Favre and Brees. I even thik Vince Young got hurt (knee) after his cover year....and yeah lost the starting gig!
Maybe I am wrong.

I have to go on a rant about how many people think this is such a bad thing and all the other things people are say about this. Also, before I start I must say that yes I did vote for Hillis and yes I too probably agree that Vick is more deserving and Vick is a better player and I am even a Vick fan.
However, cover athletes mean absolutely nothing and have no bearing on the actual game. It means nothing at all on who is on the cover. It will be the actual game that is selling not the guy that is on cover.
Secondly, to those that say this is going to hurt EA and all that stuff, you are probably EA haters anyway so why aren't you happy Hillis is on the cover?
Thirdly, we all should be happy Hillis is on the cover, because it is showing us (the fans of the game) that we have some control on the game and that we can affect the game. What, I mean it's showing that EA can and will listen to us on what they should do.
Lastly, I must say that from what I've read there seems to be some racial things being said about how Hillis is on the cover because he is white. I for one am appalled at the level of what seams to me to be racism over the outcome of the cover vote.
I also sense someone is going to say something like, "you are just an annoyed Cleveland Browns fan" or something like that. If anyone thinks that they are clearly really unobservant as my screen name is pittsburgher86 and I am clearly a Pittsburgher and very much a fan of the Steelers.

The article backed my opinion, that's all.
This years was a different voting process. Not who was most deserving, but who was most popular.

Well when your the only NFL game being sold you can get away with anybody on the cover. I never knew about this guy peyton hills untill today. I never payed any attention to browns games. I hope he is able to survive the curse.

Honestly, didn't ever know who the hell Hillis was before this.

Food is about the only advertising that might affect me that I can think of.
Bottom line, it's up to each individual if they allow cover art to influence their purchasing power. Not me deal, though.

Guy wasn't even a top ten rusher last year. Was 11th, 6th in TD's.
Just dumb. Least deserving player ever, it's not even close.
The OTHER Peyton, who plays in Indianapolis, hasn't even been on a cover.
It's just silly. It doesn't make me mad, I'm not "hatin'", it's just dumb and silly. It's a joke. Being on that cover was something you earned. Being a pretty-good player for one season wasn't enough.

This years wasn't about most deserving, it more about who is most popular.

I dont think Peyton Manning wants to be on the cover of Madden. He was on Gameday 03.
I dont have a problem with Hillis on the cover. I never bought a game for a cover. I wasnt going to buy the game anyway. If Franchise and Superstar mode is tremendously improved, I will consider buying it

Blame all the voters, then.

You would think it EA would be better off to use a player from a popular team (Steelers, Cowboys, Giants, Jets) instead of a pretty good player from on of the worst franchises in the League over the last decade or so.
