Injuries Slider

[Keyser Soze]

Is there a way to allow injuries to be part of my dynasty but LIMIT their recovery time? I enjoy the concept of having injuries on mainly because it makes recruiting DEPTH much more important and thus the game harder on the human players. However, I HATE seeing my key guys that bring the most fun to playing the game get injured for the season or too many games. While I understand that is part of real football, I would like to be able to limit this somehow so that I can still lose key guys and need depth, but don't lose key guys for extended time and lower fun factor.

Anyone have any work around for this? I typically play online with a buddy in an online dynasty so the work around would have to be able to work for that.

This would be nice, but honestly they need a complete rework of the injury system with sliders by position group. As it is now, there are way too many injuries to anyone with a ball in there hand and way too few to everyone else - particularly those on both lines. This is particularly bad when playing with 1-2 star teams when you are using lower rated players - they just can't seem to stay upright. Typically when I have a new franchise with lower rated players I end up with 2-3 QBs or HBs out for 5+ games pretty much every season...but very few other players out.

Its seems like that has been a problem for years. Skill players get injured waaay too much.

Completely agree. It blows when your 5th year senior HB is all set for a huge, possible Heisman run type season, only to go down in the 2nd game. Has happened more times than I can count. Yet I've never had a OLineman miss more than a series.

I have never had a OL go down, I have lost a WR for 10+ games. In another OD, I lost my starting QB for 5 games, then a quarter later I lost the 2nd string qb for 3 games.. Luckily the 3rd string qb played well and didn't get hurt and this was with a 2* North Texas Team.

This definitely needs to be a thing. I've had injuries turned off for as long as I can remember. Not because I don't want the challenge of my second-string guy coming in and making an impact, I would love that, but because I was sick to death of 15 injuries in the first quarter.

Agree with all of you and hence why we play with no injuries most of the time otherwise we have had times where we literally run out of QBs in a game and with the house rule that you can't switch and play people out of their position, we run into problems.

Does anyone have a homemade way of including injuries in the game but controlling the effect they can have on the dynasty?

only time I ever saw an offensive lineman get injured was when he scooped up a fumble and got hit sticked
