What do you think of Peyton Hillis currently ahead of Aaron Rodgers in the Madden 12 cover vote?

I think he's earned it. While I do believe that Aaron Rodgers career has been miraculous, it's just that, miraculous. He won the Super Bowl, and all these Packers bandwagoners (and don't even think about saying anything about those, because if anyone should get marked down for that, it's Rodgers) are voting for him, allowing him to dominate his division. Peyton Hillis has, as you said mauled (which I think is a very good way to describe Hillis) his way into the public eye by redeeming an almost lost team. The Browns are tied with the Buccaneers for must punishing and dangerous run game, and are right behind the Vikings for the best. So before you get angry about this, think about it.
