I do
Check it out:
Shaun Alexander-Shaun Alexander missed 6 regular season games with a broken foot. He finished the season with 896 yards and a 3.6 yard per carry average (well down from his 4.4 career yard per carry average). His 896 yards and 7 touchdowns were the lowest since his rookie season.
Donovan Mcnabb-After week 9, Mcnabb suffered a hernia and was lost for the season. Mcnabb threw for more interceptions and his yards per attempt and completion percentage were down from 2004. The Eagles finished 6-10, in last place, and missed the playoffs for the first time since 1999.
Ray Lewis-Ray Lewis for the most part avoided the curse. His numbers were slightly down from the year before, but he missed one game. He did not record an interception in 2004, the first time in his career.
Michael Vick-Vick missed the first 11 games with a broken leg. Vick's QB rating, comp pct, and yards per attempt were all down from 2002.
Marshall Faulk-Despite playing the same amount of games, Faulk rushed for 430 less yards and had 4 less TDs compared to 2001. Faulk's worst season since 1996. Rams scored only 16 more points then their 1996 team who had Tony Banks at QB and Lawrence Phillips at RB.
Daunte Culpepper-Culpepper missed 4 games with injury, threw for 1300 less yards and 19 less TD's then in 2000. Minnesota's worst record since 1984.
Eddie George-George's curse came in 2001 where he failed to break 1000 yards and Tennessee missed the playoffs going 7-9.

Well I "believe" in it until somebody gets by unscathed for 16 games. Tons of players do it every year, it is a really odd coincidence that the Madden players all seem to get hurt....I wonder if Brett "Iron Man" Favre could get hurt if he were on it...hasn't had a serious injury for what 260 straight games....
I think Vince Young is a solid enough player and young enough to where he might just beat this "curse" once and for all...but I wont say 100% he will...that'd be rather dumb considering he's a QB that likes to run and is vulnerable to hits...we'll see...I wish the best for Vince though, he's a great athlete and will be a great QB in this league if he works on his arm and mind rather than legs.

The facts stand for themselves. I believe in the Madden curse and Vince Young was foolish to accept being on the cover. He will be sorry.

Nah No curse is real like the bambino when red sox eventually beat the yanks it is just a coincidence and unlucky but Vince will break the curse this year if he does not then I'll believe it.

Yeah...Hope the Patriots never get on the cover...When they win the Super Bowl again, they probably will...*sigh*...Hopefully, next year Peyton Manning will be on the cover...
