2023 Franchise Mode - Reason To Wait?

[BigNasty35]

Hey everyone - I've looked through everything, so REALLY hope this hasn't been asked. Can anyone think of any good reason to wait on starting franchise mode? I know that graphical upgrades are going to be patched in (helmets, uniforms, etc) but any reason that anyone else might be waiting?

Haven't heard of any major early patches that would make sense to have to wait, but some of ya'll seem pretty dialed in on this stuff so wanted to make sure.

The week 1 roster update is the only main reason I think people wait . Good players will be released and change teams so typically that’s the main reason I believe

It's not a huge thing to most perhaps, but I read and confirmed that all defensive players show 0 sacks in 2021 on their player cards. I imagine that gets patched rather soon and likely requires a franchise restart.

The issue that has me on the fence on even buying is that I'm not even seeing QB injuries in simulated games with the injury slider at 100, let alone in played games.

That's less likely to get patched based on it being a legacy issues for a few years now. Unfortunately for me it's an immersion killer and dealbreaker unless it gets fixed.
