Madden Curse?

[Big A]

Just remembering the discussions about Madden Curse when I saw this on this weeks power rankings:

23) Detroit Lions(2-4)~

The Madden Curse is in full effect with Calvin Johnson’s grand total of one touchdown. This team need a lot more help before the return to the playoffs again.

Is it possible because they made a mock up of Cam's cover, he got hit with the curse too?

Most us sane people don't actually believe in this curse stuff, but when it keeps happening every year it kinda makes you think, WTF? Did anyone think almost halfway into season CJ would have 1TD and Lions one of the worst teams at the moment? Heck did anyone see our season this bad at week 7 either?

Smitty has zero! It's the curse of someone on your team almost kind of getting a chance to win it Madden Curse! Oh noez the humanity!

Is there a mockup of our entire team/logo on a Madden cover every year then?

Wow. Forgot about that...

Yup, that'll do it. Jags got it too.

Hmmmm, the Madden Curse was brought about because multiple winners of the Madden Cover fell to injuries that same year. It didn't have anything to do with a teams record or how well a team is playing as a whole after a player on the team won the cover.

I think Cam cursed himself by making that God-awful video challenge to Calvin. I try to forget about that and pretend it never existed because it was as embarrassing as our season has been.

Peyton Hillis believes in Madden curse

BEREA, Ohio -- For the longest time, Peyton Hillis refused to consider he might have been cursed by a video game. Not possible, he insisted.

Well, Hillis' strange season seems to have changed his mind.

After all the drama triggered by his quarrel with Browns management over a new contract, his controversial decision to sit out a game with strep throat on the advice of his agent, the nagging hamstring injury that caused him to miss five straight games, his awkward rapport with teammates and his perhaps too-little-too-late flourish to end the season, Hillis nowhttp://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/7405565/after-tough-season-cleveland-browns-peyton-hillis-believer-madden-video-game-curse

Almost as embarrassing as taking out a full-page ad guaranteeing we'll win the Superbowl... and then starting 1-5.
