The REAL reason Cam didn't get the Madden cover...


Cookie Lyon

Recommended Posts

After the amazing season Cam had and being the MVP, you would think that he would be the automatic choice for the Madden cover. If he couldn't get the cover after all he accomplished this past season, he NEVER will. I remember seeing the disappointment in Cam's face when he was a finalist and they would reveal that someone else got the cover. He REALLY wanted to be on that cover because he loved playing Madden so much.

I still think EA Sports snubbed Cam because of the Super Bowl post game press conference which is stupid, but they decided to put that drunk meat head on the cover though.

Welp, it's your loss EA Sports. You petty bitches!!!

Who cares who is on the cover? Is anybody going to NOT buy the game because of the cover? If so, they weren't going to buy the game anyway

My problem with EA Sports is that they know how much Cam loves Madden and for them to snub him ONCE AGAIN after being the MVP is ridiculous.

Being the MVP doesnt get you the Madden cover.  Its not about who the MVP was or who the better player was.  I also dont think it has anything to do with EA having it out for Cam.  

My best guess is that EA figured that Gronk is more well liked than Cam and/or will be more appealing to the people who might buy the game.  They are in the business of selling video games..not deciding who "deserves" to be on the cover.

Also, to all the Madden haters out there... Madden is still a great game.  If you don't like it, you probably havent given it enough time to get good at it.  Its really hard and takes time, so I understand why people dont like it.  But i think it is a great game.

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
