Please disregard, lol.

This should be awesome! I am literally looking forward to the hassles this will cause me in franchise mode (i.e. Do I let the player keep playing? Is his back-up good enough to step-in? Should I sign or trade a better back-up if the injury is long-term?, etc.)

The key is that there is a slider, because everyone will have an opinion on how many injuries there should be.

Hopefully the default slider setting has been made thoughtfully though. I appreciate the ability to adjust sliders, but I still want them to be set at the developer's best efforts by default.

Great, great info. Iv been waiting so long for an injury system like this. No more dumb animations when your player goes down. Trainers and carts, HELL YES.

Ian, its time to revisit some blogs to show progress in areas you said need work. I would love to see a then and now.

I really like the new injury system. I hate when games immediately tell you the severity of an injury.

I'm an NCAA guy at heart but from what I have seen so far I believe Madden 10 has improved more since 09 than NCAA has in the same time frame. Maybe more Madden this year for me.
