It's inevitable and I for one will be glad to finally see a Panther on the cover. I wasn't sure if the day would ever come and being on the cover means the Panthers will get a little extra-special treatment in the game.

Good news: curses only exist if you believe in them and I doubt Cam is the kind of guy that believes in such foolishness.

If you say. Seems that every person that has been on the cover of it has had something to happen in one way or another.:frown2:

Can Cam Newton decline?
I think the one good thing about it is that he can decline if he wins. But I doubt he would do it. Hoping he doesn't win it. If he does and get on it. Then our season could be down the drain before it begins. Believe in the curse or not. It happens.

That's actually not true... one example would be Larry Fitzgerald, he made the pro-bowl the year he graced the cover.

Drew Brees and Ray Lewis also had good seasons after gracing the cover.

I don't understand how adults can but into this superstitious crap? It's fun to talk about, but does anyone over the age of 12 actually believe this is real?

Ray Lewis and Drew Brees say hi.

Ray Lewis was on the cover of Madden 05. In 2005, Ray Lewis got hurt and only played 6 games

Drew Brees was on the cover of Madden 11. In 2011, the Saints got knocked out of the first round of the 2010 playoffs after being heavily favored.

What happened to Troy who was also on the cover with Larry?

      Lol. The Texans are literally one of Bryce's six career NFL wins. WTF are you talking about?

      Yeah, I mean it is a statistical fact and also part of literally a player evaluation. Winston has literally lost dozens of games in his NFL career due to crippling TO's. It's just who he is. Look, it's fun when those insane throws work and he is leading you back from some crazy deficit. But those success are rare. It's why his career GWD count is so low. He's fun but he is fundamentally built to lose games.  If you are talking about a backup QB, you are literally already losing in the first place. That's how you see a backup QB and that's overwhelmingly what they tend to do. Rookie QB's almost always benefit from veteran QB's. Same as literally any other position in the NFL. Why do you think that you so often hear that from the playera themselves? As for Bryce NEEDING one, no he sure as poo shouldn't this late in the game. But he also shouldn't have needed this fuging long to get his fuging footwork straightened out either. Yet here we are.

      Comfortability is the primary reason. They don't want to hurt Bryce's confidence. But I say if his confidence is that fragile that healthy competition which makes everyone better is enough for them to keep making Andy Dalton rich then Bryce was never going to be the guy anyway. Give me the QB who sees the competition amongst his peers and uses it to take it to the next level. Instead we get the guy who comes out looking like a deer in the headlights against the Texans after we've done everything possible to appease him. Definition of complacency.
