BaltimoreFan Posted January 8, 2005 Posted January 8, 2005 Just curious, Did Ray Lewis beat the Madden Curse? I dont think he had an off season. He did break his wrist at the end of the season, but still was able to play all but the last game (which they won). The only think I can think of is we didn't make the playoffs.
Saintsfan Posted January 8, 2005 Posted January 8, 2005 Well in a couple of years I datre say people will use the broken wrist to say he didn't beat the curse. 2011/12 WFL Champions

jkrdevil Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 what kind of season did eddie george have after getting on the cover? he had a great season, but apparently he blew some huge play in the playoffs that cost teh titans the game. basically, after the other got injured and someone came up with the madden curse had to have someway it effected George as he didn't get hurt and he had a good season.
Stampman Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 The "curse" is not real, just evidence some people have too much time on their hands...With the number of players who get injured or have off years--the odds are against the coverboy anyway... Comic Sans walks into a bar, and the bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve your type here."
Saintsfan Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 I think we had something about the curse up here just after Vick got injured last year, and some of the supposed 'victims' of the curse just had slightly below par years. you are gonna have some below par years just as you will have some stand out years. By definition almost you must have a stand out year to get on the cover, so odds are short that when you are on the cover your performance will drop a little. 2011/12 WFL Champions

rockchalk Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 What happens with his contract with Microsoft though? Will he be able to be a coverboy for EA even with their exclusive contract? I've decided to give up hope for all sports teams I follow

clyon81 Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 Well, I dont think im going out on a limb by saying that it will probably be someone from a playoff team. So the next logical thing would be to make a list of players from there. Let me know if Im missing any:Philadelphia - McNabb/OwensAtlanta - Vick/?Green Bay - Favre/WalkerSeattle - Hasslebeck/AlexanderSt. Louis - Bulger/HoltMinnesota - Culpepper/Moss Pittsburgh - Rothlisburger/WardNew England - Brady/DillonIndianapolis - Manning/HarrisonSan Diego - Tomlinson/BreesNew York - Pennington/MartinDenver - Plummer/BellI guess its possible not to be a playoff team, but I would think maybe Eli or something, just because hes in NY. I also didnt include defenders, nor did i exclude anyone based on outside contracts/previous covers Play RBI Baseball 2K9 @ http://league.rbicentral.com
wheateater Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 How about T.O. or McNabb? They were one of the biggest stories this year...EDIT: Didn't know clyon81 posted that.....good list, BTW.

clyon81 Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 what about ol' FatBoy Madden his-own-bad-self? They might have to use an older picture then, because otherwise they would probably need to tape his eyes open.

Saintsfan Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 Has Favre ever been on a Madden cover? Anything stopping him? 2011/12 WFL Champions
CaolinaJoe Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 Has Favre ever been on a Madden cover? Anything stopping him? I don't think so. And that's kinda surprising, see ing how much Madden loves Favre. "It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of thepress.
