What exactly is the Madden curse?
The player on the cover of Madden every single year follows it up with one of the worst years of his career.

EDIT: Or he gets injured.

JARED ALLEN WAS A CONTENDER!?

Thank god he didn't get it... The last thing the Vikings need is to have the D-line lacking... I panic enough about whether the Williams Wall is going to be intact every game.

hey, they can just put a redskin on the cover every year and not have an effect! ZING!
Oh snap! I must admit as a formal DC resident (and fan) that stung a little.(even though thats true)
i live near DC, but i am not a redskins fan, even though my relatives have ribbed me about the redskins
Ha same story with me. I always prefer the Ravens more than the Redskins, but I'm not that much into football to begin with.

Whoever is on the cover has their carrer go down the tubes for some reason. Has been happening for at least... 10 years?....

Anyhoo... NOOOOOOOO! I barely pay attention to the NFL, and this was one of the players I like!

Why Madden! Why!
Actually Ray Lewis is still going pretty strong (GO RAVENS F****AS!!)

While I thank you for taking the time to break down what 'foot ball' is for us shut in gamers. I know what a Dorito is. Don't eat the things, but I know the snack aisle of a grocery store well. I'm sure lots of us do.

The Vikings don't need the Madden Curse to choke. They have been doing it faithfully on their own since the 70s.

They ALMOST had it last season too...

If Favre comes back they still have a good chance this year... we're so damn close it hurts...

With the exception of Brett Favre, he was the 09 cover guy and still had an ok year.
The thing with Favre is that he's been injured but it doesnt stop him and thats why i like him.

I wish I could share the sentiment about Favre, but I doubt he'll be back. He looked pretty banged up after the game against the Saints. As long as Taravis doesn't play, I'll be happy.

Wow. Really? Why Drew Brees? Why ruin one of the best quarterbacks of the past five years? Why? I guess he couldn't pay his way off the ballot like Peyton Manning (why hasn't he been on the cover?). Aye. I wonder what will happen to Brees. Hopefully nothing too serious.
