It's none other than Brett Favre.

Maybe he was chosen because he is retired now and don't have to worry about the curse - unless of course Brett comes out of retirement. 

If Brett Favre suffers any sort of misfortune this next year, I will be thoroughy creeped out.

I have to admit: I was pulling for Randy Moss.

Haha he's doomed, he'll be cursed so bad since it's Madden's anniversary I bet he doesn't even play this year!

He won't be coming out of retirement so there's no worry of him getting hurt, unless the curse really is that powerful.

Some explanation to past players.

Eddie George fell off because the Titans worked him like a rented mule the year before. Daunte Culpepper fell off because his success was an illusion in the first place. Michael Vick got hurt because he was always injury-prone, thanks in part to his run-first approach to quarterbacking. Marshall Faulk had to get old sometime. Donovan McNabb didn't suffer from the Madden Curse as much as he suffered from the Having Terrell Owens As A Teammate Curse. And Shaun Alexander, like Marshall Faulk, also had to get old sometime.

What if he dies?

OT:

Who cover 2008, and what happened to them?

Shaun Alexander's success was also a mirage. A superlative offensive line and fullback + a shitload og goal-line carries will net anyone a lot of TDs.

He said the only way he will come back is if they need a back up quarterback incase Rodgers gets injured and I bet he will. Seriously though Brett Favre plays his whole career without injury then Rodgers gets a shot. His first game he gets injured and is out for the season. That was pathetic.

awww
wish Randy Moss would make it....
