EA lets you be a Head Coach without Madden

Previously, it was announced that the Madden NFL 09 Collector's Edition would, among other goodies, exclusively include NFL Head Coach 09 as part of the bundle. And even though that hasn't changed, EA has changed their minds on how to approach Head Coach 09, now deciding to release it as a stand alone game as well. According to EA, "after listening to fans and the Madden NFL community" they decided to make Head Coach 09 its own retail game which is now set to release on September 2nd for $49.99. We never knew Head Coach fans were so passionate about seeing Tony Dungy on his own retail box.[Via Game Stooge]

Really EA, include inbox or charge for it. Who would have thought they'ed decide to charge for it? Who needs to manage a NLF team this bad?

What's a head couch?

It's an Arkansas way of saying "Headrest".

mmmm, i've grown tired of being a regular couch... being a "head couch" seems much more inviting...

I will never look at the title of that game the same way again.

Well, there's a lot of us who are into sports management sims - and if the Brits get to have Football Manager 2008...
Seriously, Front Office Football on the PC is excellent, and while NFL Head Coach was not very good, there's a tremendous hope that NHC09 will be a graphic version of FOF.
Since NHC09 comes out 3 weeks after the collector's ed. of Madden comes out, it'll give ample time for reviewers to report how the game is.
