Let's have Bo Jackson for Madden '13 Cover

[TomBrady]

No. A cornerback or safety needs to be on the cover. That would hopefully make those positions play much more realistic. Currently there is no difference in the play of for example Ed Reed and Gerald Sensabaugh, as both are close to useless. Same with non-playmaker cornerbacks like Nnamdi Asomugha.

Put someone like Marino, or Dick Lane, or Reggie White on the cover. The production just isn't there for Bo.

Idk, Peyton Hillis hasn't exactly set the world on fire.

I call for Gene Upshaw for the cover...

If he were still alive and in charge of the NFLPA we would be talking free agency and trades in REAL LIFE right now.

I don't know about Bo Jackson but here would be a good list to choose from

49ers -- Joe Montana
NYG --- Lawrence Taylor
Jets --- Joe Namath
Bengals --- Icky Woods
Cowboys --- Tony Dorset/ or the entire Doomsday Defense
Steelers --- Terry Bradshaw/ or the entire Steel Curtain Defense
or they can do a collection of the Super Bowl MVP's starting with Super Bowl I

Naw, remember the Curse....

Bo may mess up his hip and have to retire.

Oh, wait.......



How bout Brian Bosworth?

How could you forget the Ultimate Weapon, Randall Cunningham?

I disagree, the entire process of selecting Peyton Hillis generated more press and buzz than any cover announcement prior.

I think this was due to the voting process than the actual performance of Hillis. I'm not hating on the guy but I'm sure having Bo on the cover would create just as much interest. I would bet that outside of Cleveland not many people have seen him play.
