Join the club. You guys cried like babies about the NFC Championship game against my Eagles only to lose to the same team as us the next season. You got your just rewards.
I could say the same for you Bill. Keep trying to say you would've beaten us, it wouldn't have mattered after all you keep losing Super Bowls to the Chiefs.
Holy shit, this is a joke sub, brosephus McNoHumorPants
Football is just dumbass entertainment. Try not to take it seriously like you're defending your tribe from foreign invaders or something, JFC
Mission on Impossible difficulty: Take a joke but you're an Eagles fan.
Side note: This is why they are easy to troll. Look at how bent they get out shape at anime gifs.
No because the Bills are cursed and they proved it just makes the pain double by reminding you of an awful past moment. The Bills lost to the Chiefs again, and did it in a way that called back to the way they lost a Super Bowl.
It was terrible. Reading the wiki, he was fan voted and rightfully deserved the cover. The cover was an artistic shift into incorporating the stadium more into the cover. Speculated this was because Lumen field was the loudest and they wanted to pay homage to it. That said, the stance, placement and coloring are pretty bad.
Which is crazy considering how the 49ers before CMC would have their RBs drop like flies (and proceed to have backups play like top 10 guys)
I guess it’s one of those “negative times a negative equals a positive” things
Niners were weirdly injury resistant last year. Were changes made to their training staff? It was fun to watch em lose without an excuse. Here’s hoping they can do it again this year.
They always seem to save their injuries for the playoffs. I remember when they cried like babies when their QBs got a injured in the NFC Champ game only for them to lose to the Chiefs like we did. Niners fans and the team as a whole deserved losing to the Chiefs.
He's reported every person who has responded to him....kinda sad really...like...if you come in here to troll...then get bent out of shape and call the mods/janitors when people spank you.
"Y'all cry louder than any other fanbase in the NFL." Really now? I see your flair. Are you a Seahawks fan? Tell me why would a Seahawks fan be defending their biggest rival? I would think a Seahawks fan would remember the whining the Niners and their fans did about the 2023 NFC Championship game. Tell me did it matter in the end? We both lost to the Chiefs did we not?
That is true. Pete Carroll had our number. 2023 was an illusion. We had our own internal issues. We lost both of our coordinators after the Super Bowl and one of them lied to us (Gannon) which caused our preferred choice to go to Miami instead. So we had to settle for less-than-ideal replacements. You try replacing 2 coordinators after all the quality candidates have been picked by other teams.
Besides, I seem to remember you needed Drew Lock of all QBs to lead a Montana-esque final drive to beat us. Besides, that is tough talk "Nobody beats up my brother except me". Really now? You got royally swept by them last season did you not and 2022? You haven't beaten the Niners since 2021. 3 years ago.
You didn't have a penalty called against you at the worst possible time and didn't have to deal with the worst field in Super Bowl history. We simply got royally fucked.
Also, to your past point, it is irrelevant. We had a godly defense in 2022 which we didn't have in 2023. Plus, our defensive coaching staff last season was one of the worst in the league. You guys only destroyed us because of poor coaching on our part. Sean Desai and Matt Patricia both suck and both have been fired. If we had Fangio last season it would've gone differently.
He’s actually the first Niner on a madden cover. Seahawks had Sherm (2015) and Shaun Alexander (2007), Rams had Marshall Faulk (2003), and Cards had a split cover with Larry Fitz sharing the spotlight with Troy Polamalu (2010).
Edit: in North America. Garrison Hearst appeared on the 1999 cover of the PAL version.
Technically, since the Raiders are in the background getting smoked, maybe the curse will have a reverse effect? I mean, that's gotta be worth a few games in the regular season.
It started with Garrison Hearst in 99. (First year a player was on the cover.) So it all started with the 49ers.
EDIT: forgot to add that Garrison Hearst broke his fibula the year after the cover was debuted and thus, starting the "Madden Curse"
So it's time that the 49ers break the curse indefinitely. the only way I see this happening is for CMC to have another record breaking year and finally win it all.
I believe.
the Seahawks made the SB and if they just gave the ball to Lynch probably back to back champs the year Sherman was on the cover
you mean like the time Mahomes was on the Madden '20 cover and made it to a SB?
Jackson was Madden '21 cover and rushed for over 1k yards
or the time Mahomes was on the Madden '22 cover and WON the SB?
Allen is on the Madden '24 cover and they made the AFCCG
is the Madden curse even real anymore?
Seriously bruh. Seahawks fans have actually proven over the last couple years that they can lose to us with a LITTLE bit of class, while the Lambs simply can’t.
Some Seahawks fans are even more creative with their insults/comebacks towards us than Lambs fans.
"Really cooked" not sure I believe in curses, especially when they are being posted by Rams fans who just found their first hair on their pecker.
See y'all at Levi's South 22 Sept.

Blame EA for the blursedness.
What happens when you put the madden curse on a team that’s clearly already cursed? Double negative makes a positive? **cope**
First team to get Maddened AND win the SB
That was Mahomes actually
HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS!

Yall literally looked worse than us tits fans last year and we didn’t even do anything of note outside of look like an entire lake of sewage.

don’t be happy yet what if it’s actually the raiders defense that gets cursed
Can we get both out of the deal?
![gif](giphy|3o7aCRloybJlXpNjSU|downsized)
Here I thought EA couldnt possibly make Madden any worse. Then they go and put a 49er on the cover.
Well we got college football 25 this year soooo
I mean the Sherman one was terrible, and it ain’t just on the fact it was a Seahawks player it was just so damn bland.
It was terrible. Reading the wiki, he was fan voted and rightfully deserved the cover. The cover was an artistic shift into incorporating the stadium more into the cover. Speculated this was because Lumen field was the loudest and they wanted to pay homage to it. That said, the stance, placement and coloring are pretty bad.
Totally agree, hated that cover
The LOB cover was one of the worst ever as well
I can't even deny that, it's pretty fucking terrible. Like, why didn't they put a photo of the tip or something?
They don't allow dick pics on the Madden cover.
Then why did they have Richard Sherman on the cover?
Nice
Welp… there goes any hope I had for this year.
I *love* that
![gif](giphy|ZfiYf29HOVWT0ZnQLl)
CMC fantasy football stock just took a dip
Having the 1st pick is a fucking curse anyways. My super competitive league of 5 years has never had the 1st overall pick make the playoffs.
Could be worse… your 1st round pick could’ve been Chubb 🥲 and the year before that Johnathan Taylor
That's on you if you picked Jonathan Taylor
I've been first pick 3 years in a row. Serpentine draft really makes you regret getting #1
#4 is where it’s at
Defs going ‘22 again. Does that satisfy the curse (pleaaaaase)?
Didn't Mahomes break the curse?
So did Brady, Calvin Johnson, and Antonio Brown. Although the curse hit Brown off the field lol
Brady you could argue hit him off field as well eventually, and Calvin’s team still went 4-12 the year he was on the cover
Yeah but the Lions were always ass. He himself had a solid year, something like 1900+ yards.
So you guys will go 4-13 but McAffrey will have 1500+ yards. Ok I’ll allow it
Well I don't like that either
you brought this on yourself
I was just telling my fellow 49ers homer, we have to deal with both a Super Bowl hang over and the madden curse….mother fucker
![gif](giphy|4BGE0hSex6gzC)
My immediate thought was the (already somewhat fragile) CMC has been struck with the Madden curse... yikes
He was fragile in Carolina. Ever since the Niners got him he’s been healthy wealthy McGee
Which is crazy considering how the 49ers before CMC would have their RBs drop like flies (and proceed to have backups play like top 10 guys) I guess it’s one of those “negative times a negative equals a positive” things
Niners were weirdly injury resistant last year. Were changes made to their training staff? It was fun to watch em lose without an excuse. Here’s hoping they can do it again this year.
Their biggest injury happened during the Superbowl
They always seem to save their injuries for the playoffs. I remember when they cried like babies when their QBs got a injured in the NFC Champ game only for them to lose to the Chiefs like we did. Niners fans and the team as a whole deserved losing to the Chiefs.
Y'all cry louder than any other fanbase in the NFL. Why come here and try to start shit when our division owns your feathered ass.
He's reported every person who has responded to him....kinda sad really...like...if you come in here to troll...then get bent out of shape and call the mods/janitors when people spank you.
I think you have me mistaken. I haven't reported anyone.

Nobody beats up my brother except me, especially not a loser who cheers for a team that hasn't beat the hawks in 16 years.

You got royally swept by them last season did you not and 2022? You haven't beaten the Niners since 2021. 3 years ago.
At least we took them to over time… Also, how did it go between us when the QB was on the field the full game?
You didn't have a penalty called against you at the worst possible time and didn't have to deal with the worst field in Super Bowl history. We simply got royally fucked. Also, to your past point, it is irrelevant. We had a godly defense in 2022 which we didn't have in 2023. Plus, our defensive coaching staff last season was one of the worst in the league.

Pointing out other’s coping while coping doubly hard is kinda hilarious.
So 6 years (CAR) fragile, 1.5 years (SF) healthy McGee. Must be overthinking it

If the Madden cover curse was real the Niners would have won the SB in 2020
My Raiders are on the Cover lets Goooooo
Is this the actual cover?
Mr. Superbowl fumble brought the L and the curse to his team. Am I beginning to like him?
This may cancel out our Super Bowl curse (I’m coping)
Fr though
Easiest way to reverse the curse!
The other good thing about this is the new college football games coming out so we don't have to have this garbage on our shelves.
*breath deeply* Well.....Cya all next year....
Bro I hate your flair lol
Matches well with my PTSD post-SB
Same ;_;
2018 all over again
Yall realize that means that we gonna see all of our teams get dunked on in the loading screen
Technically, since the Raiders are in the background getting smoked, maybe the curse will have a reverse effect? I mean, that's gotta be worth a few games in the regular season.
🙏🙏😩
a lot of people don't even acknowledge God but want to act all superstitious, shit is hilarious
So that means we make the NFC Championship Game, have an MVP, or win Superb owl.
How did the Bills do last year?
Lol still better than our 2020 season
Shhhhhhh
It started with Garrison Hearst in 99. (First year a player was on the cover.) So it all started with the 49ers. EDIT: forgot to add that Garrison Hearst broke his fibula the year after the cover was debuted and thus, starting the "Madden Curse" So it's time that the 49ers break the curse indefinitely. the only way I see this happening is for CMC to have another record breaking year and finally win it all. I believe.
There's no way this is the actual cover is there?? One of the worst covers ever imo
As a fan of the next team most likely to get to the SB from the NFC, I whole heartedly endorse this decision.
As long as it's not the Cowboys...or Eagles...or Rams...or Toots...or the Packers....yeah...I think that's it.
Didn’t Madden 25 come out in 2013?
Well I guess we can expect a 4 game CMC season now. Bros going back to his constant injury days, it has been foretold by the EA elders
Can't believe they didn't use the pic of CMC fumbling in LVIII... /shambles
Isn’t mcaffery injury prone? And now cursed. Yikes
lol cursed we already have Jed tho imo I don’t believe in curses
Get ready 49ers fans for 8-9 and drafting a Te in the first round next draft
Well deserved
![gif](giphy|mcH0upG1TeEak) 😂😂
I don’t believe it. Mccaffrey will never get hurt.
the Seahawks made the SB and if they just gave the ball to Lynch probably back to back champs the year Sherman was on the cover you mean like the time Mahomes was on the Madden '20 cover and made it to a SB? Jackson was Madden '21 cover and rushed for over 1k yards or the time Mahomes was on the Madden '22 cover and WON the SB?

Go back to the regular subs, incel.
I'm sorry I brought logic here, lemme fix that. Rams? More like Dams that team sucks
Week 1 ACL tear incoming
Weirdo
Of course a Lambs fan would say this. I never thought I’d say this but Seahawks fans are leagues classier and funnier than them.
Seriously bruh. Seahawks fans have actually proven over the last couple years that they can lose to us with a LITTLE bit of class, while the Lambs simply can’t. Some Seahawks fans are even more creative with their insults/comebacks towards us than Lambs fans.
Those are some ugly classic jerseys I think it’s time for a change 🤣 mahomes cooked the 9ners to the case of madden and lost what a low blow
Not really sure what you just said, but those jerseys are some of the best in the league. You’re tripping.
time for a change old school y’all keep losing in them classic jersey making history look bad to my eyes
Ah I get you, yeah they didn’t win very much wearing the 1996-2008 maroon set either. Lol
Probably another injury
R.I.P. CMC. You will be missed 🙏 🕊️
"Really cooked" not sure I believe in curses, especially when they are being posted by Rams fans who just found their first hair on their pecker. See y'all at Levi's South 22 Sept.

Curse + curse= no curse. I'm really digging the cover. Bang bang motherfuckers.
| Bang bang motherfuckers. Okay but why did you have to take out both of Mcaffreys knees. One would have satisfied the curse
I love this sub because it’s a nice reminder that the LA Rams are an NFL team.
