The real issue that is highlighted by this is how short most NFL careers really are. And living up to expectations after having a personal best season is an incredibly hard thing to do both mentally and physically. Especially as teams learn to plan around and stop you and your body starts to take more hits as a hits since you are a much higher usage player.

I know, right? Like, to get the cover of Madden, you've got to be at the top of your game. It's not surprising to me that injuries happen to people who are playing professional sports, and the best players play the most games. How many other players with similar game time/career records had career ending injuries around the same time but weren't on a video game cover? Top level athletes suffer serious, sometimes career ending injuries. That's sports, not a curse.

[@stephenmcmahon4878]

Honestly the Antonio Brown situation as a Steelers fan I think the curse only coated what was already wrong. The real curse started when Vontez Burfict slammed AB with his shoulder pad in the wildcard matchup om January 2016. After that he just wasn't the same. Didn't really smile, laugh, talk to ben about routes and touchdowns plus throwing Gatorade jugs and throwing tempers over nothing. He was already cursed before he was on the cover of madden XD

[@invest-i-gator8896]

I think the reason this coincidence happens is when an NFL player gets on the madden game they get confident, they feel on top of the world, since they are on the madden cover it means they were picked for being one of the best. That is why I conclude that the NFL curse is not real and it affects people on the cover of madden because they make dangerous decisions in games because of their supposed greatness. Also 74 percent is not good considering most of the athletes all the way from madden 17 are still fine today.

[@angelpassion7259]

I really don’t know much about football but my theory is that the players who make it on the cover are the ones who have already put a lot of stress on their body to get to where they are and probably continue the habit of over working themselves in both practices and in games to maintain their stats leading to a greater injury risk. Also the opposing team might come after them harder than anyone else knowing that they pose the biggest risk of scoring. The nfl already has a high injury percentage even compared to other sports so I just think it’s possible that the ones on the covers the players striving to be the best are seeing the worst of these injuries.

@@nadanican Tom Brady is one hell of a player I’ll give him that but um that nearly scored touchdown was on Darrol Williams not on Mahomes, Lemme take you back to when he had a oline down 24-0 to the Texans his team isn’t trying then 28-24 in 10:24, ok look the Defense contributed to but Um it took nearly the whole 2nd half to come back from 28-3 my point is he’s Dan Marino and his arm and Joe Montana’s/Tom Bradys clutch gene

@@AVSFAITHFUL25 I can see Dan Marino's power, but I still don't think he can get near the power people like Montana and Brady have/had, in the way of clutch or arm.

Ok brown had cte during the 2015 afc playoffs when they were playing against the bengals so there’s no way that the curse can happen before. This cte thing happened during a shot to the head of brown. Also cte makes a persons mood change and he even stated that he wasn’t the man he was before. For example he would get in fights with players and he wouldn’t play his best. But the other problems I do understand.

[@Sbournazian1]

Patrick was still madden cursed he hurt his knee and overcame that madden curse but still got it. But every single madden player was cursed either there career just started to suck, put on crappy teams or crappy management retirement going and etc not 1 person has never been madden cursed u might say brsdy wasn't nah Brady's biggest loss isn't getting injured it's making it all the way up there just to fall to a backup qb to be humiliated by a backup qb?

You can't skip cover athletes, 2001 Eddie George went down as his team lost to the Ravens and he was never the same afterwards, 2013 Calvin Johnson just literally quit when everyone thought he survived, 2015 Richard Sherman got hurt at least 3 times after he was on the cover, 2018 Tom Brady's team lost to the Eagles who they should have beaten that year, 2020 Patrick Mahommes got hurt that season and the curse is always active, Madden cover affects your whole career & life afterwards, not just you getting injured or etc.

[@ethan_lol24]

As an OSU fan (we’re Barry Sanders went to college) I think the reason Barry left is because the lions only made the playoffs only once with him. He was also a franchise tag so he couldn’t leave. He probably wanted to be traded and when the lions said no he just said I quit.

[@iamhungey12345]

More than once, they got there a few times but the team were never good enough to go far however.

Just no, it’s Barry he just didn’t want to play anymore. Watch Barry sanders football life then you will get it

[@beatndagutta]

First of all Barry Sanders just didn’t disappear. He wanted to leave the Lions, but the organization wouldn’t let him go and he had six years left on his contract. He was told that you either play for the Lions or you can retire so he just retired. He was only 1500 yards away from breaking the NFL rushing record with more years to go left in his career. I blame the Lions and Wayne fonts for Barry Sanders, retiring, which is the biggest travesty in NFL history because he would’ve destroyed the rushing record in Emmett Smith wouldn’t be on the top like he thinks he should be.

[@djwooshuu8859]

Growing up watching Barry Sanders in the 90's I was surprised he left the game when he did. Reports from ESPN back then was Detroit refused to trade him. His desire was to win. He didn't care about records or celebrating touchdowns. The Lions were not in position to compete for the super bowl so he retired. He was done losing. The Dolphins tried to get him in a trade and Detroit refused.
