The NFL coaching sim will see a standalone release for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 this fall, landing at $49.99 USD.

NFL Head Coach 09 *Only* Available In Madden Collector's Edition. Are you one of the dozens who want the full NFL head coaching experience, the way only EA Sports can deliver it? Then you're going to love the new price of $89.99! The only way you'll be getting your hands on it is to pick up the 20th anniversary collector's edition of Madden NFL 09. Madden marketing director Chris Erb tells 1UP it's "a bonus to our fans", but that may not sit that well with wannabe coaches. Shut-in nerds like us? We're surprisingly cool with it.

Tony Dungy The Face Of NFL Head Coach 09

EA Sports has confirmed that Indianapolis Colts' head coach Tony Dungy will be gracing the cover of NFL Head Coach 09. The game was officially announced today, scheduled for release this fall, for both the PS3 and Xbox 360. This second edition of Head Coach will feature all the micro-managing fun that comes along with being a high-powered, highly-stressed NFL coach. According to IGN's first look at the game, Head Coach 09 has removed all of the tedium of the previous incarnation, although as someone who has never seen the appeal of fantasy sports, I can't imagine that all of the tedium is gone, otherwise, there'd be no trading and haggling over salaries!

Dungy was the first African-American coach to ever win a Super Bowl when the Colts saw victory in 2007. He's been with the Colts since 2001, and has won 70 regular season games since his arrival. In a Game Daily interview, Dungy said that he hopes the game will help prepare young people who are looking for a career in coaching football.

Hey, it makes more sense than training to become a football player by playing Madden!

EA's NFL Head Coach Media

I don't know if the screenshot makes me want to play EA's NFL Head Coach or not. It looks like someone getting lectured in the principal's office. Of course, this assumes your school had the Ravens for a mascot. More »
