The Madden curse shouldn't affect you right now is it not?

One thing that's not talked about except Denver Broncos fans is when we traveled to Denver and I ran through their defense like an ice-cold knife through butter. It's not a boast, it's an actual fact due to the size I was then and how low I learned in college in running with my pad. So, you'd never be able to Mut 22 coins see me upright running when I didn't have someone 5 or 6 yards ahead of me trying to catch me. When I was on the move, in the middle of it all I had to wait one moment to realize that not running behind your pads can be harmful for your health. I'm not able of naming the name of the man but he was a linebacker in the Cardinals while they were in Phoenix. He blew me up. He smacked me on the 6- or 7-yard line and hit me in the 2. He helped me up and said, "Hey, Bo, look, you must help me pay my bill. It's time to get faster. I'm looking at him as if he's done lost your damn mind. I'm not going down the same hole any more. After that play I bounced it out and used my speed.

Editor's note: in the fourth quarter of a game against the Raiders in the playoffs against the Broncos during the week of Dec. 2 1990, Jackson scored a 62-yard scoring rushing touchdown. He broke five tackles en route to the end zone. He ended the afternoon by rushing 13 times for an average of 117 yards, and two scores.

The Denver game that I was playing after I cleared my linemen ran over an opponent's linebacker and then someone else. If I'm not mistaking it I slammed into their All-Pro linebacker [Karl] Mecklenburg and pushed the defensive back to his goal line. That's one play that stands out to me , because I must do everything from the sidelines to make someone miss, jump, get low and go for 60 yards for an elusive touchdown.

What thoughts were going through your head when you first saw yourself featured on Madden cover?

I just sat back and saidto myself, 'Man you still got it. I did something right. And that's what I preach to players that are similar to Derrick Henry and Saquon Barkley Make sure you do it right. If you're doing it right in the beginning, you'll be remembered forever.

Why is there a Madden curse? [Laughs.] I'm not affected by it.

You weren't playing with your friends at Tecmo Bowl. Are you gonna play with yourself in Madden?

I'm not sure. The thing I'm currently doing is spending a lot times with my new grandson. That's why I'll likely buy the game and save it for him. I'm really eager to cheap Madden nfl 22 coins see it come out. Yes, I'll be carrying my stash of Madden games to give out for Christmas gifts.
