Let's be honest with ourselves... Cam should run away with this thing. He is by far the most exciting player in the NFL right now.

Putting the man who set rookie QB records and gives a franchise a new to reason hope on the cover?

Makes sense to me

# 3 MrBallaBoy21 @ 03/16/12 01:57 AM

Please don't let my QB win this

I really hope Blaine Gabbert wins the whole thing! EA gives us someone who wouldn't bring popularity to Madden, so this is our chance to take advantage of this opportunity!

I LOVE Cam Newton. Although we ALL realize that the curse works, hopefully he wont have too bad of a sophomore campaign. 8-8 and I'd be happy

Madden curse works, just hopefully not as bad this year.

Noooooo!!! He had a great rookie season so madden needs to stay far away from Cam..

Im banking on us to get back to the playoffs this up coming season..

This madden voting BS needs to go..just throw a Pats player on the cover lol

TBH I always thought it should be Newton or Daulton.

Tebow will still suck. With or without John Elway helping him.

I'm boycotting the vote over Andy Lee.

Well that won't fuel Cam's massive ego or anything... Good for him, though. Curse-wise, I'd be happy with Cam winning or Tebow taking the cover.

# 12 mALiZ @ 03/16/12 11:35 PM

NOOOOOOOOO NOT CAM PLEASE NOT CAM....Can Cam refuse to appear on the cover???????

# 13 Aggies7 @ 03/17/12 03:01 AM

I'll probably look like an idiot but when's the last time we saw a Defensive player on cover? And I am talking solo cover not the split with Larry and Troy.

Would be a nice change of pace for a defensive player to be on cover.

Same here its hard to vote against Newton, being a Browns fan I traded for him in Madden 12 and he has been my starting QB since

Ray Lewis in Madden 2005.

Coincidentally, that was also the last great Madden game.

I love defense, but I can't see putting T-Sizzle on the cover over Superman. What Newton did was just so far beyond belief that it deserves commemoration. I hated that his work got overshadowed by Tebow coverage all season long. I'm not a Carolina fan, but I'm a Cam fan now, that's for sure. That kid is amazing.

Calvin Johnson, Patrick Willis or Jared Allen should be 3 of the top names for the cover. Madden cover used to pay homage to the great players of the game....now EA moronically takes votes from what consists primarily of little kids and casual fans who truly dont know much about the NFL or real football in general. Thats also part of the reason the game continues to be a watered down product of the actual thing.

So, what's wrong with everyone voting for Gabbert then?? Now, he's fun to watch!!

# 18 balljonesjr @ 03/18/12 04:51 PM

Way to much of a Cam fan to want to see this

# 19 xxedgexx @ 03/18/12 06:02 PM

I voted for Tebow. The Madden Curse + Tebow's QB ability = ?

# 20 J.R. @ 03/18/12 08:13 PM

Off topic a bit, but it's not about "WHOS EXCITING TO WATCH". It's about who plays the best. And Cam and Daulton were arguably extremely good this year.

If it was about who's exciting to watch, Tebow should be on the cover. At least that way he'd finally get knocked out with the curse, which he deserves.
