Voting For Cover Of Madden 25 Has Begun

EA Sports and ESPN have teamed up to allow gamers to vote for which NFL star will grace the cover of Madden NFL 25. This year's poll looks to the past, pitting all-time greats against the best players of today.

The poll, which is up and running right now, is divided up into two divisions: "New School" and "Old School." The Old School poll features some of the greatest players to ever touch a pigskin, including Joe Montana (who should just squeak out a victory over Jake Delhomme in his first round matchup), Barry Sanders, Deion Sanders, Marcus Allen, and Dan Marino.

The New School division will pit current starts like Ray Rice, Andrew Luck, Arian Fosters, and Adrian Peterson (who better beat Carson f-ing Palmer in the first round or I quit life).

You can head over to the Madden 25 voting page on ESPN.com right now and cast your votes for the first round winners. There will also be live Twitter voting from 4-5 p.m. Eastern Standard Time during the show SportsNation on ESPN 2. SportsNation will release the results of the polling each week at 4 p.m. EST on Wednesdays.

How about we put the 25-26 players from every other cover of Madden on it then? :p
by Tim Gruver Monday, March 11, 2013 at 05:28 PM

I vote for every player on a Madden cover to show up in some kind of cool ensemble mash-up.

How is Carson Palmer even on the ballot?

I first read this as the cover for Madden 2025 or the equivalent.

Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin, Tom Landry, Deon Sanders, Emmitt Smith. Those are my picks.

I was a Dan Marino fan as a kid so I'd probably vote for him.

Sorry but if no wii u version I will be skipping madden. It doesn't matter who is on the cover.
by brettph3lps Monday, March 11, 2013 at 06:23 PM

How about they put John Madden's fathead on the cover and call it a day.
by Narok24 Monday, March 11, 2013 at 06:26 PM

Nobody cares, it's EA, it's dumb.
