The lights are on
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.
My vote is for Sim City!
*ducks incoming rotten lettuce and tomatoes*
i vote for everyone who bought sim city. its the least EA could do
Tebow for sure. In fact, let's just rename the whole series after him.
Lets get Randall Cunningham on there, he doesnt get enough credit imo
I voted for who I wanted to have the Madden Curse.
For the love of all that is holy, vote against Andrew Luck! I beg you, fair GI community, don't let my promising young QB catch the curse!!!
Aaron Rodgers not even on the ballot? Well, this is officially a joke.
Vote for who you don't like and they will be cursed! It's fun for the whole family.
Sigh...I would hate to be the "new school" player who wins the cover spot knowing about the dreaded Madden Curse that comes with being the cover athlete for recent Madden games.
jake delhomme ftw!
How about a cover "down with ea". In bold letters. Followed by stop making madden across the bottom
DEAR GOD IF ADRIAN PETERSON IS A CHOICE, DON'T VOTE FOR HIM!!!! HE'S THE ONLY THING GOING FOR THE VIKINGS AND I DON'T WANT HIM TO CATCH THE MADDEN CURSE!!!!!!!
Julio Jones!!! I'm mad though because somehow Jimmy Graham is beating him in their match-up. Do people even vote based on skill?
DAN MARINO FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
