    Unusual amount of season ending injuries

    I think the NFL in my franchise has suffered an unbelievable amount of season ending injuries. I counted 70 season ending injuries and 30 of those were from complete achilles tear. Oh by the way, I've played 2 games in the regular season. I don't think this is similar to the NFL in the number of season ending injuries. Anyone else experience this?

    Turn the injury slider down some if you see this being consistent. I can't say I've seen it yet though.

      Where is the injury slider? I don't see it anywhere in franchise.

      Btw, I simmed the season to see how many would wind up out for the season and it ended up being a total of 102 players. Every FS injured was out for the season which was about 15 of them. The most players with season ending injuries were CBs.

      Anyways, this is just strange.

        Did you start with "use preexisting injuries" because that could explain it, they have players getting hurt at the same rate but they start with a few injuries in place already from players on IR.

          This too, I turn this off before EVERY franchise. Also, the slider for injuries is not in Franchise mode. If you go out and go to your "Settings", near the bottom there is "Fatigue" and below it is "Injuries".

            Lower your injuries to 30 the biggest injury I ever had with the slider at 30 was OSI out for 6 weeks everything else was a game or else so I love it

              I have the injury slider at 15 and had 6 injuries from anywhere between t and 12 weeks in the first 3 games. I started.my 4th game and then had another player out for 10 weeks. I honestly think it needs looking at

                  And let me guess, after getting the hit he was sitting up holding his elbow? I love how you can see a guy favoring his foot and it turns out he has a separated shoulder.

                    There are probably already more than 102 players in the real life NFL on injured reserve. You may think it is unrealistic to have that many injuries but even that number is very very low.

                      Does the injury slider affect simmed games or just the ones you play? I was under the impression it was just the later. If so, injuries definately need to be fixed in the patch. It's out of control.

                        Good question.

                        I suppose one way to find out for sure is to turn the injury slider to zero and sim a few games and find out.

                          I would love to know exactly what front end injury simming on or off does in the franchise mode settings menu. I have it on. Because i am assuming it controls injuries on or off for simmed games. And I don't want all those games I do not play to not have injuries. That would be stupid.

                          I have mine set to 15 and it seems just right at that number.

                            Yeah basically, it dictates whether there are injuries in simmed CPU vs CPU games. I have a problem with the number QB's getting very long lay-offs. I've had Rodgers out for the season in by week 2, Ryan out for 10 weeks and Eli out for 8 weeks by about week 4 all in one franchise.

                              Does this mean I have to start my franchise over if any changes I make will have any effect?
