The Steelers just got one step closer to being re-crowned division champs when EA Sports put the Ravens Ray Lewis on the cover of Madden 2005.
The problem if you're a Ravens fan is that the last three players to grace the cover of Madden were injured the following season. USA Today reports:
*Madden 2002 star Daunte Culpepper, quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings, suffered a knee injury, and his team ended up with a losing season.Ray Lewis is unfazed, and promises to break the curse. As a Steelers fan I will take any edge I can get.
*Madden 2003 cover figure Marshall Faulk, the star running back of the St. Louis Rams, went on to a sub-par season.
*Madden 2004, featured Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick, who broke his leg in the preseason and missed most of the regular season.
