Odell Beckham Jr. On madden 2016 cover

I can't believe I'm having to post OBJs highlights to explain to any NFL fan why analysts think he could be a future HOFer after his rookie year.

Yes the catch helped make him a household name so casual fans know who he is. But anyone with an NFL brain should be able to see how talented this guy is.

I would go as far as to say if I could choose any NFL player on the Panthers it would be Rodgers, Watt or OBJ.

I'll ignore the fact that you just put HoF and rookie player into the same sentence, and lol at how stuck you guys are on trying to defend him,

Not a single person here is questioning his ability. What is being called into questions is his stardom. Guess what? The "casual" fans were the one who voted on this.

Will this make Madden fun to play finally?

 

It's fun now. I just finished a 30 yr career as an owner of the Panthers and won 27 Superb Owls. It was quite a run but somehow didn't earn me even close to the legacy rating as other owners. Go figure.

Lol "I can't believe I've actually gotta remind people that this guy is the GOAT. He's legendary. Didn't you see that catch?"

Forgive the rest of us for not being hype train sheep.

"Haha look at all these suckers getting excited about the most exciting receiving talent since GOAT Randy Moss'

Man I hate hipsters.

OBJ deserves more than just the madden cover if he could get 1305 yards and 12 tds on just one catch. Smh

Wait at what point did I insinuate he amassed those yards in one catch?

I encourage spending some time to develop your cognitive skills.

It's amazing how far one play can take you.

It was hardly one play. The dude lit up defenses against double coverage every play being the only weapon on offense, as a rookie, after missing the offseason program... 3/4 of the season and 1300 yards and 12 TDs as a rookie... That is absolutely unheard of.

I wonder why guys like Julio jones didn't get the cover. Or Antonio brown . Or jordy nelson. Or emmanuel sanders. Or demaryious Thomas. Or the other 3 or 4 WRs who out produced him, last year, if that is indeed the argument as the reason why he was voted for the cover.

Gee I wonder what it was in the mind of these casual fans voting for this cover that swayed the vote in Odell's favor.

"His aptitude for the game!" "The finer points and nuances that he passionately works to develop!" "His understanding of coverages and the time he puts in in the film room, Growl I mean duh!!!"

lol sometimes this board looks like the official team facebook comments section

He absolutely, without any rebuttal being feasible whatsoever, would not be on the cover if it wasn't for that one play.

Great talent. Deserving of recognition. Is absolutely riding a media wave from that play.

You'd have to be a sheep to believe otherwise.

    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
