Mango Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 A bunch of us saw this coming. We seem to forget EA sports is the one doing this to us. Allen didn’t have to be on the cover, but he did it, and now everything is ruined. We just have to hunker down and get through.

Do you mean "we will still exist as a franchise in the NFL after this season?" I agree with that. If you think we are making the playoffs, this year, you're out of your mind.

Nephilim17 Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 I was just thinking about the Madden curse before seeing this. There could be a couple rational reasons why cover players have bad years... 1. Hubris. It makes a player feel like the biggest superstar in the game. Remember, these are people in their 20s, not adults with a long period of maturity as a frame of reference. When Josh is saying crap like "I'm the best athlete in the world!" on video, you know his head has gotten bigger (and not because it's filled with more football study). 2. Other teams are more motivated to take you down. I think psychology is huge in sports and I don't think being on the Madden cover is a good thing. Maybe it's just dumb luck but Josh's psyche is not in the right place this year and being on Madden surely didn't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TampaBillsJunkie Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 I almost started this thread last week. The Madden Curse is real. It went to Josh's head and he thinks he can just physically overcome his mental issues. Josh went Hollywood and the first year he gets all the endorsements and Hollywood GF, his play turns to sh!t.

Did I miss something or are the Bills still in contention? Going through the list of cover athletes. Which ones had career ending injuries? I’m only at the first 6 but none had a career ender. edit- found maybe 1 but the player was old at the time and could have just been age catching up.

Big Turk Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) This isn't helping on top of the injuries and bad play. Basically the Bills have had the 2nd worst "luck" on random occurrences to Minnesota this year. Edited November 14, 2023 by Big Turk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
