Endurance question

Kodos · 09-01-2009, 10:06 PM

I have a free safety who has a whopping 0 endurance. I currently have him slotted only as our FS in nickel situations. It just occurred to me that I may not lose anything by also slotting him in the dime, which I had previously avoided in hopes of keeping him "fresh".

Endurance doesn't matter to anyone except slotted starters, right?

As far as I know, it won't affect substitution (he'll be on the field whenever you're in nickel and dime), but we have no real insight into how it might affect performance if you're in those packages a lot.

We know Endurance affects playing time of starters; I think it's reasonable to assume it also affects the "Tired" possibility you see post-game. Not sure how that affects performance, or if it does at all during the game when he gets Tired.

I play a LOT of nickle, in the FOWL I play 100% nickle except for Agg Run or Pass, so about 95% of my plays are in nickle package, I have tested and run gameplans like this in tons of SP and MP and it is my firm opinion that the endurance will not hurt their performance.

Cool. Thanks for the info guys! It appears that I wasn't thinking properly about it in FOF terms, instead of in real world terms.
