And it's got Vince Young.

I love Kotaku intrepretation of it...Madden 2008 cover boy Vince Young of the Tennessee Titans had to retire as quarterback ........for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a quadriceps strain .....lol

They should put TO on the cover next year :lol:

Yea it sucks, I was watching the game and the Titans probably would have won if he had played the whole game. But good news for them is he'll probably play next week.

That is correct. It could be the first in a long line of small injuries, but it's not the curse quite yet.

???? Sophmore slump, how do you figure? His completion percentage is a lot higher, his QB rating is alot higher, and if it wasn't for that last dropped pass against the Colts, and a bad call by the ref even after the instant replay at the end of the first half and that stupid play by Nick Harper that gave up the TD against the Bucs, the Titans would be 5-0.

LoL he is probably the most likely to get injured. Not due to the Madden curse, but for the fact that he scrambles unprotected alot.

Wow, a quad sprain that leaves him day to day is a jinx? Oh no. Not a broken leg in the preaseason. Not horrible numbers for Alexander last year. A quad sprain; which is the only real blemish on his season considering how he's led the team. Yup. A true 'jinx'

So missing 2 quarters of 1 game is the madden curse? Some teams are on there third string QBs and Young will start next week when he atleast misses a couple of games then you can call it the curse.

I don't really think that counts. But I have to make fun of this kid in my class, he literally worships Vince Young. Like he has a shrine in his closet and everything. Used to do it to Michael Vick, but after the dogfighting thing he refuses to ackowlege that he ever liked Vick.

i don't believe in the curse. if they had put LT on the cover, they would say that the curse would have affected his slow start, but look at him now!

Yeah i would say this is people looking for the curse. It's actually uncommon for a QB to go a whole season without any injuries or anything that bothers them at all. With all the snaps they take it's basically good odds to have to sit a few plays after takinga beating.
