The curse has to play out in one of two ways:

Either the curse gets transferred to Aaron Rogers, who goes down with a serious injury early in the first game of the season

or

The curse gets executed in their opener during Favre's jersey retirement. He trips and falls and hurts himself, or something happens to the jersey, or something.

Great tribute to Brett, but I'll still be playing NFL 2K5 and Tecmo Super Bowl.

As for curses, none. I think his father dying, home destroyed by Katrina, and his wife getting breast cancer was too much already.

His curse would be to try and make a comeback and be either awful or get hurt. But neither one's going to happen, so I guess the jinx's string of misfortune is over with.

To make up for it, they should put both Brady and Peyton on the cover next year. tongue

Damn, I was hoping it was going to be Eli Manning, insuring the return of "Bad Eli".

...and Favre comes back to replace him and thus suffers the effects of the curse?

I'll pass on that bet, though tongue

I thought the curse was broken last year with Young on the cover since before Young no team with a Player on the cover had ever made it into the playoffs the year the player was featured?

And not for nothing but the Titans did win a Playoff game last year.

It's more of a personal jinx, and it still applied: Young wasn't very good last year and got Norm Chow fired.

Regardless of whether you like Favre or not, thats uncalled for.

Thats not what the curse is about, anyways.
