SI Cover Curse Strike Again?
 

Chiefs on it, let's see.

the rest of their schedule is accomplishable (?). if all their key players remain healthy, they should be able to pull it off.

I can only pray the curse is real.

Not this week. Chad Johnson predicted a guarrenteed victory. The Football Gods are chortling right now.

I do too. Hopefully Denver can take care of them at Mile High.

There have only been about 4,932 covers in the history of SI. Lets count the number of times the dreaded SI curse has occured, 50? 100 at most? That works out to about 1-2%.

The curse is a hoax, it's called an upset, they would happen without SI. The fact that SI puts the biggest news story, normally a team or person that is doing well on the cover normally means everyone expects that team to do very well every single time out. When they do, no one cares, when they don't, "IT'S THE SI COVER CURSE!"

Heh.

Say the Chiefs make it to the Superbowl, perfect record, and they lose... I'm sure there will be at least 1 or 2 more issues of SI with the Chiefs on the cover, and inevitably people will blame it on the curse... it's silly. Law of averages people... they're bound to lose one sooner or later.

What's really freaky is the EA Sports curse... as in players featured on the cover of their video games have become injured soon after... take Vick on Madden 2004 and Dany Heatley on NHL 2004... both on my beloved ATL teams :-(

say what you want but the chucky soup curse is real

I really like peter king for football info.

curse schmurse.

It is real!!

Well, maybe not, but at least they lost.

Wooty

Despite having the flu, I yelled and shouted throughout the game. My day is made.

Jason White was on the cover earlier this year, and nothing happened to him. It's just a superstition.

Quiet! Don't draw attention to that. Maybe The Curse won't notice that White's reconstructed ACLs are still intact. :D
