  The Madden Curse is an urban legend which believes the athlete selected for the cover of Madden NFL will be jinxed, having a poor season or suffer an injury. Shaun Alexander in 2007, Donovan McNabb in 2006, Michael Vick in 2004 and Marshall Faulk in 2003 are among the athletes to appear on the Madden NFL cover and miss time the following season with injuries.USA Today: Can Vince Young avoid the 'Madden curse?'
