The Cleveland Browns have fielded just two winning teams in the last 10 years, but their passionate fan base deserves credit for toppling a Super Bowl champion.
Behind the strength of online fan voting, Browns running back Peyton Hillis knocked off Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, the Super Bowl XLV MVP, on Monday to vault into the finals of the “Madden NFL 12” cover-model contest against Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick.
The winner of the Hillis-Vick showdown will be announced April 27 at 4 p.m. ET on ESPN2.
Fan voting propelled 10th-seeded Hillis over top-seeded Rodgers by a decisive 61 percent-to-39 percent margin. More than 548,000 people voted.
“It’s no surprise to me that he ended up pulling ahead, and I’d attribute that a lot to our Browns Backers across the country,” said Kelly Carroll, manager of the team’s official fan club, Browns Backers.
