Look at his left foot. He's clearly teleporting away from a nuclear explosion (explains the yellow light on him).

Rocketz · Jun 23, 2014

Not really feeling it. I hope atleast the NHL cover is decent

HarryDemeanor · Jun 23, 2014

"You shall not pass!"

NoRéN · Jun 23, 2014

It looks like he had his dick out and EA censored it.

Sword Of Doom · Jun 23, 2014

Looks like Iron Man

StoOgE · Jun 23, 2014

Did they do something with his proportions digitally?

Looks like they made his head and helmet gap slightly larger than normal.

Something is just off about the whole thing.

edit: it looks like the distance from the top of the helmet to the bottom of the chin strap is almost the same size as his torso.

I still get a lump in my throat.

Oh man don't feel bad

Kevin Costner is getting tons of roles!

Mihael Mello Keehl · Jun 23, 2014

EA have him doing the nae nae on the cover now I think about it. Huah!

In all seriousness, isn't that the Heisman pose?

Kinda . . . but the Heisman pose is an offensive player with the ball pushing away defenders. Richard Sherman is a defender.

Is Richard Sherman using The Force against the other players?

Is he dancing?

That pose looks like a Mortal Kombat stance

Translation?
Is it Hold up, hold up, we are boys?

WooHooAlex · Jun 23, 2014

Wow, that looks terrible.

Big_J · Jun 23, 2014

Looks like he's in press coverage against a receiver and jamming him at the line. I'm a big Seahawks/Sherm fan but that is an awful cover.

alr1ght · Jun 23, 2014

Yes EA, please stop. Just stop.

Lazulic · Jun 23, 2014

His right arm is bothering me so much.

lndrld cold · Jun 23, 2014

OnPoint said:

That works.

MattDoza · Jun 23, 2014

Someone went through all of the photos from a photo shoot for this cover and picked this one. Or they just used the first and only picture taken in the shoot. Both are laughable.

The fact that his back foot is kicking up dirt, but not planted, is bothering me. I'm not sure how that pose would lead to that...

the_don_patch · Jun 23, 2014

He kinda looks like waka flocka flame here

Lee Chaolan · Jun 23, 2014

Pretty uninspired cover. Then again they've never exactly been great anyway.

Bumblebeetuna · Jun 23, 2014

Just looks like he might be slowing down a WR coming off the line to me, Idk.

I wonder if DB's will be ridiculous good since Sherman is on the cover.

Where's the football?

When he's on his game, the ball is never thrown to the guy he's covering.

Hilarious......

SJRB · Jun 23, 2014

Someone got paid for this cover. Someone got paid after someone else approved it.

Think about that for a moment.

Thread is already of to a great start. Subscribed.

OK, now I think this is the best Madden cover ever.

He hit the truck stick.

Lmao, best post I've seen today.

Seriously though, I loved NFL 2k5 and I don't even like football games. And it looks like he is angrily directing traffic

Spottiettiedop · Jun 23, 2014

Looks ok to me.

That Ironman tho is hilarious

Netherscourge · Jun 23, 2014

Maybe Sherman is trying to mote, "Please, keep me off this cover!!!!"

damn bro, I've seen better fanmade covers from like 4 years ago.

cr_blah_blah · Jun 23, 2014

STOP

In the name of love.

nateeasy · Jun 23, 2014

Well at least they didn't put Peyton Hillis on the cover again.

Peyton Hillis got voted in by the fans LOL!!!

Why are EA Sports threads always the most unintentionally funny threads of the day? This one already has me nearly in tears and it's not even at post 100 yet LOL
