____________________________________________________________________________________________
The “Madden NFL 25” cover vote is down to the final four, and I’ve had the chance to talk to each of them about video games.
So before you cast your vote and curse one of these poor players, check out what they had to say about the "Madden" series.
Adrian Peterson on the Madden Curse: "I don't think it's real. The only thing I think is real about it is that the world makes it out to be a curse. You get so many people talking about it and thinking about it and throwing it out there that I feel like whoever is on the cover already has it on their mind that they're going to get cursed. I feel like if you think about it too much, that opens up the window for something bad to happen. Me, personally, I don't believe in the curse. If I was on the cover of 'Madden,' the curse would be broken, I'll tell you that."
Arian Foster on what he wants fixed in “Madden 25”: “My character’s not good-looking enough. He doesn’t look like me at all. But they just took a digital scan of my face, so hopefully in the next game, it looks more like me. My speed and all my ratings, I’m good with those, it’s my face they need to fix.
Jerry Rice Discusses Madden 25, the Pistol Offense,
Anquan Bolding and Much More

Jerry Rice has been selected to the Pro Bowl 13 times, he has been named an NFL All-Pro 12 times and has won three Super Bowls with the 49ers. Yet he has never donned the cover of Madden, the best-selling American sports video game in history.
However, Rice is hoping his time is now as fans will have the opportunity to vote him on the cover by going to ESPN.com/MaddenVote. A total of 64 players will be involved initially, but each week that number will dwindle. One side of the voting bracket is filled with 32 legends, while the other is filled with 32 of today's superstars.
