I played one in mine, had a 66 yard run with Tyrod on an option, and he was still green.

I have mine set to 85, and I've never had my HB subbed out to never return, they sub out usually after 3 plays and come back in after 1 or 2 plays later. I've even had a back run the ball 50 times in one game. as for defense, I've never seen one of my defensive players subbed out or even get tired at that. the only positions that seem to "work" are HBs and WRs.

Solidice, buddy... I almost fell over today. I decided to do a test. I turned the sub out/in to 99/100 for my DE's. Then I played every single down as my left DE. I used speed burst every play and at the beginning of the third quarter he subbed out. I couldn't believe it. I was so excited... then after three plays I realised my DE wasn't returning. He never even turned yellow to show fatigue... he was just gone. This is the ONLY player I have ever seen sub on D in now four seasons.

perhaps it has something to do with the ratings for guys being too high for stamina. I lowered the stamina rating on my teambuilder guys so no one is really higher than an 85. I havent had the time to test it out if having the stamina for a LB or DE at 70-75 makes him get tired quicker and therefore sub out but perhaps that helps. If thats the case then the only solution for that problem would be to lower the stamina rating for each player when you edit the rosters.

Just glancing at Florida's roster, for example, on the teambuilder site, some of their LBs, DEs and DBs have stamina from 85-91.

If this is the solution, then im all for it.. because at least we can get around the bug and make it work...

Also someone said that their players started changing colors..?? was this after the patch?? ive seen only one time a player changes from green to yellow so this may be something they included??

While I've always wanted to create a roster with low fatigue ratings, the issue doesn't stay 2-3 years into your dynasty.

You are correct. I have tried this and rerated the players 10 - 20 - 30, but the freshman coming in are all rated high....so it only helps 2 years or so.

So you cant re rate all the freshmen coming in .. well that sucks

But I haven't seen the question actually answered. Does significantly lowering the fatigue ratings actually cause players, even defensive players, to sub out of the game?even if only for the first year or two
