Hindsight is 20/20. Last April, a re-retired Brett Favre seemed like a good cover athlete choice for Madden 2009. The curse would be broken, or so EA thought. After a month of speculation, Brett Favre returned to play for the New York Jets. To describe it as a lackluster return would be an understatement.

Favre had 22 touchdowns and 22 interceptions, but his play down the stretch cost the Jets a few winnable games and the Jets were toast. All the while, the Dolphins and former Jets QB Chad Pennington were busy winning the AFC East. The Jets were ruined, Brett Favre’s career had a lame punctuation, and the Madden Curse had struck again.

Another one bites the dust.

The Team Photo of the 0-16 Detroit Lions should be the new cover

Out of the choices that they've given us, if they really follow the Fight For Every Yard slogan, I still say it should be Brandon Jacobs or AD.

I have money on Peterson getting injured and never being the same after appearing on the cover.

I think it's Adrian Peterson. Two screenshots in the tech blog were taken at the Metrodome (one with a camera man, and one with A.P.). All other screens thus far have been with the Steelers and Cardinals, with the exception of one of Matt Hasselbeck.
