I have an idea. So AP is going to be on the cover right?


Lets pick a bunch of high profile players from other teams. Like 12 of them and closely follow their year too. See if its really the curse or just people watching the normal up and downs of an nfl career as I said earlier.

I think Drew Brees survived the Madden Curse unless there was a injury that Im not aware of. But everyone is not lucky. Calvin Johnson was injured last year though. It wasn't bad enough to keep him away for the season but he only managed to get 5 TDs despite all of those yards and receptions he had.

That being said, I think Peterson can survive the Madden curse. I can see him on a Madden cover too so brace yourselves!!!!! :shock:

I don't believe in curses to be honest

Am I the only one nervous about AD being in the finals?
Heck no A.p deserves all the recognition he gets, complete silliness to think of curses.

If you're some new flavor of the month, the chances of it going to your head and destroying you are pretty clear. See: Daunte Culpepper.

If you're an established player that knows what you need to do to win every year, you're probably going to be fine. See: Adrian Peterson.

If anyone can overcome this "supposed curse" it would be AP, right?

If he makes the cover and something bad happens--I think they just need to put all retired players on the cover from then on. If they refuse, let's vote/push for all Packers players like mad people! :thumbsup:
In regards to AD on Madden, you have no clue.

As an avid Madden enthusiast, I cant tell you that AP is WAY TOO #### GOOD ON MADDEN, seriously, its actually quite retarded.

Good thing I play with the Packers, who have a 99 overall Aaron Rodgers :).

What people should more concerned about is how 2K5 made in 2004 puts every Madden made to shame. Madden is a terrible football game and EA hypes it up every year. Madden has been a joke every since they got to be exclusive with the NFL.

Not at all.

Madden 13 was the best Football game ever made, dont know how anyone can see otherwise.

2k5 was dope dude, I wasted many an hour back in the day on that game, and while it is true that it took a long time for Madden to catch up, it as definently surpassed that of 2k5. (Obviously, Its 2013.)

You can't tell me that? What exactly are you trying to say? And why do you keep throwing the "r" word around? Are you a teenager? That is one of the ugliest words in the English language, and quite frankly the use of it is disgusting. If I were you, I wouldn't throw it around so much. I actually work with the intellectually disabled, and some are way smarter than you. Just sayin'. If put in a similar situation, they could at least recognize where/when they are not wanted. :thumbsup:

Haha I like this one. I 100% agree with you I have no clue why a GB fan posts so regularly on a Viking fan forum. He defiantly deserves the title of keyboard warrior.

Lol, really? I dont know why Id be called that, considering I post here signifigantly less then alot of people on this board. I dont frequent the Packers Boards too much anymore but, I assure you, there were plenty of rival fans good and bad.

Lots post more but your the only GB fan, other than two others who I only see post in the smack shake sections where GB fans posting belong because it always turns to smack talk in the end. Point being its a thread about A.p being on the madden cover but somehow has Aaron rogers or something else about the pack that you bring up.
