I mean, I always wake up with a boner, but that would have been doubly exciting.

I know, right?

Well, Alexander came off a season where he broke the all-time TD record and was just shy of 1900 yards, and carried his team to the SB....

But yeah, in an earlier thread I made a list of guys on the cover...a lot of them were sketchy.

Does he deserve to be on the cover? No.

Is it awesome that he's a Brown...hell no!

Is it awesome that he's on the cover? YES!

While Hillis might have performed better than Vick relative to expectations, when you just look at their performances in and of themselves, and compared to others at their position, I don't see how you can say Hillis was a better player than Vick this season.

I think the fans should all be arrested and publically flogged for this travesty.

So I have heard, time and again, that Hillis was stupid dumb like Lenny in Of Mice and Men.

I was actually surprised to not only hear him speak but READ his draft card.

Congrats to Peyton. I guess more than just Bronco and Brown fans felt he deserved the nod. Kudos to him. He's a beast of a player. \m/

I think he was out at the podium when the Browns drafted Phil Taylor? Peyton is 250lbs and he was dwarfed by Taylor.

Vick has already been on the cover of Madden. Right off hand I can't think of anyone that has been on it more than once.

Good for him.

I will set the over/under on when he will get hit by the Madden Curse at week 5.
