Re: Only RBs getting injured

I am having the same issue. Only when playing the games myself and they are always serious like broken collar bone.

Yeah. It seems like fatigue adds 20-30 to the injury slider on its own. Maybe we all just notice it more with running backs than receivers because they get the ball so often and they're frequently fatigued and getting hit by 250-plus pound LBs and DLs each time they touch the ball.

Perhaps we should be emulating Shaun Alexander.

This isn't new....injury risk has increased as players get more fatigued for years now (at least through the XBox1/PS4 generation, longer if I'm recalling correctly).

Increasing sub frequency settings on the Coach menu is another way to tweak it without globally changing fatigue settings....more subs = fresher backs = fewer injuries.

Re: Only RBs getting injured

It's certainly disproportionate to runningbacks, and then ball carriers in general.

In almost two full CFM seasons, playing as Dallas, I've seen:
Zeke miss 5 games in season one and 1 in season 2.
Dak miss half a game in season 1, six games in season 2.

Two players who IIRC have never missed a game IRL.
My two backup HBs have gone for 8 games each at points.
Amari Cooper got a four game spell (and complained about not being featured enough whilst still injured!)

No off the ball injuries have occurred at all.



Also seen Saquon Barkley hit with a ruptured disc.

To be fair, I can picture Amari Cooper doing that in real life....

Re: Only RBs getting injured

RBS get hit the worst. I had to draft one late 1st, just because foutnette got hit every year for 4+ games. Its something they have to tune but injuries have been a problem for a while so idk if they even care frfr.

Mine's on 43, and in 7 games played (10 min Quarters), I only have one man (Golden Tate) missing 5 weeks.
