Injuries - too frequent to starting HB and QB?

[Hunsy34]

My buddy on our OD went through 3 QB's and his WR was playing QB he managed to make a come back burnt a redshirt and played with his last QB. I see my top WR always hurt and his injury rating is high. I hate your QB runs onces and he's red then he cant throw worth a crap. Wish there was a fatigue slider.

It seems like every game I play my starting qb and rb getting hurt at least 4 or 5 times a game...Anytime I run with my qb and have to slide everytime...I cant even attempt to break tackles or he will get hurt...Seems like every sack I get hurt..

I think I might just give in and turn injuries off

I dont understand why Im not having QB injuries. I've played roughly 30 games now and have yet to see my QB injured. Granted I dont run much with the QB but I do get sacked quite a bit.

Consider yourself lucky...because every time my qb gets sacked he stays on the ground..

The worst is it seems like my qb always gets hurt on a crucial late drive... I'll have the ball in the redzone needing a td and my qb will get hit after a throw and get injured for 2 or 3 plays... My backup will come in and throw either a crazy pick or miss any open wr by 10+ yds lol..

I'm running with a 2 star school I created so I don't have the luxury of having good backups..

I think the OP is on to something.

I'm in Online Dynasty and I decided to take the Gators for a spin and it's uncanny how often I see my QB and HB go down, sometimes together in the same game with "mild concussions" that take them out for the entire game.

I had a streak here where it happened to me 3 games in a row and I wasn't doing anything super reckless with either of them.

If you're RB or QB is in yellow/orange on the play selection screen then do not let them get it. For the RB I just use the "Spell HB" package for a play, then after that he's at 100% Fatigue. For QBs, once they're tired just don't run with them, and even then always try to slide or go out of bounds. I can guarantee fatigue is the cause of most of your injuries. It happens frequently to your HB and QB because they get the ball the most and are generally the most tired.

i had to restart a dynasty after week 2 because i had 2 QB's out for over 8 weeks and the other for the season with a broken collarbone, and then had 2 RB out for 5-8 weeks two lol it sucked. but ive noticed playing with any teams with scrambling QB's that if i get sacked they get hurt no matter how hard the hit and a running back gets hurt easily as well. never had a lineman hurt, nor a defensive player hurt unless i simmed the game, then like 4 of them lol

I agree with this thread. Playing a dynasty as Oregon, my new QB gets injured every game (but no one else). I even run out of bounds or slide every time I scramble, but the second I get sacked or tackled, it's an automatic out for the game. It's so unrealistic, I had to turn off injuries.
