Leading contenders for next week's cover to secure that the Patriots don't get jinxed:

  • Lebron-gate: The anatomy of an ankle injury
  • Pete Rose: I take it back--I never bet on baseball
  • The Super Bowl that Should Have Been: Bengals vs Vikings
  • Pre-Swimsuit Issue 2004: Co-MVPs Manning and McNair!

You can only put stock into this sort of thing for FUN -- it is not a real curse, more a way to blame SI when your team does not win.

-----------

The only time the Pats were on the cover of SI this season was after Buffalo embarrased them 31-0 in September. How's Buffalo playing right now?

SI Covers this season:

1/19/04 McNabb (lost to Carolina)

12/22/03 Peyton Manning

12/08/03 [unknown] Rams Offensive Lineman

11/17/03 "The Perfect Chiefs"

10/06/03 Jake Plummer *Got hurt after this cover I believe

09/15/03 Bills' Sam Adams running back a fumble for a TD vs. Patriots

09/01/03 Kurt Warner (!) and the Rams - SI Football Preview

<< OT but noteworthy: 10/13/03 "Do You Believe?" East Edition: Red Sox, West Edition: Cubs >>

Also there is the Madden NFL curse, just ask Michael Vick....
