Madden NFL 15 Cover Vote Comes Down to Cam Newton vs. Richard Sherman
 

The coverman for Madden NFL 15 is now down to Cam Newton vs. Richard Sherman after both won their semifinal contests over Andrew Luck and Colin Kaepernick respectively.

Both Cam Newton and Richard Sherman were #1 overall seeds in the Madden bracket. It's interesting to note that Sherman is a defensive player who could land on the cover in the year the game has what is believed to be a heavy focus on the defensive side of the ball.

Must be alot of teenagers and Seahawks fans voting to get Sherman that high of a pct.,unless people really still believe in the curse and want to inflict it upon him.Nobody I know that are adults think much of the guy other than giving him credit for being a very good player.I don't know anyone that doesn't think Can Newton's a decent guy.

I hope Cam wins then the curse convo reignites

I think the voting was a sham! I would like the build up to the game to be more interactive but it just seems dull and a big secret? Maybe we get another pre-rendered video at E3 and then maybe some gameplay the night b4 the game drops? Sad.
