Electronic Arts has announced that the new cover athlete of Madden NFL 12 will be none other than Cleveland Browns running back Peyton Hillis. For the first time ever, fans were able to vote for the cover athlete and it all came down to Hillis against notorious Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick.
In the end, Hillis took 66% of the fan votes and in a statement to ESPN, said he wasn't worried about the famed "Madden Curse" saying, "For people to believe in this so-called curse, I can't wait to prove people wrong. From what I believe and where I am in my spiritual life, it would be good to prove them wrong in that sense."
In the 2010 NFL season, Hillis was the first running back on the Browns to run over 1,000 yards in a season since 2008, finishing up with 1,177 yds and 11 touchdowns. Hillis beat out a number of other athletes including Dallas Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Ware, Houston Texans receiver Andre Johnson, San Francisco 49ers linebacker Patrick Willis, and Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson.
Madden NFL 12 is coming out for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, and Playstation 2 on August 30.

I'm sorry, but I have a problem with Michael Vick. Anyone who does horrible things to dogs does NOT deserve to be in the position he is in. He tortured and killed innocent animals.
Don't try and tell me he served his time... I think that's a load of crap. Michael Vick does not deserve the status he is currently enjoying.

Peyton Hillis is pretty good. He had a pretty good season until the Browns ran him into the ground at the end of the season. He was pretty much the offense and he scored a lot of points for me for my fantasy football team which I won

it could be a nice change to see somebody other than superstars be on the cover.

It is weird because I have never heard of this dude.
Anyway I wouldn't be garbage talking the curse when we aren't even sure if there is going to be a season. Maybe that's the curse!

Even though Vick is a more compelling cover athlete, Peyton does have one thing going for him: very cool nicknames. Two I have seen is Mastadon and Avalanche (as in powerful, unstoppable, and white) both of which makes me chuckle.

For people who are going to say Hillis Sucks... Just watch him.. He is not the best and he won because of the novelty of a white running back, but he is a good player.. GO BROWNS
bubers
hey give ya a heads up, Hillis beat Ray Rice, Matt Ryan, Jamal Charles, and Aaron Rogers, vick beat the guys you guys say... but i guess he won so he did beat them to... GO BROWNS

Wow... really? Really? Wow... Nobody wants to see a guy from the browns on Madden 12. Micheal Vick was a better pick. Besides the browns suck. I'd rather see Tony Romo on the cover. Even though I hate the Cowboys

Who is this?

Hillis was the first BROWNS running back since 2008. He seems like a nice guy but he is an ok player on a terrible team.
