Here is the list of IR guys from ESPN.com who have gone down since the season started. This is through 7 weeks of real life football. Chad Henne*, Mia QB IR Tim Hightower*, Wsh RB IR Kenny Britt*, Ten WR IR Earnest Graham*, TB RB IR Josh Morgan*, SF WR IR Kerry Collins*, Ind QB IR Ovie Mughelli*, Atl RB IR Jamaal Charles*, KC RB IR Zach Miller*, Jac TE IR Chris Cooley*, Wsh TE IR Danny Amendola*, StL WR IR Jeff Cumberland*, NYJ TE IR Roscoe Parrish*, Buf WR IR Jordan Shipley*, Cin WR IR That's 14 guys in 7 weeks. So you could say on average 2 guys go out for the season each week. You saw 20 in 3 weeks, That's almost 7 a week!! (the same rate I am seeing.) Thats insane! In Madden simmed games injuries are literally 3 times as severe as in real life!

Definitely wrong, the poster below this post was correct about injury frequency (14 on IR vs 157). No doubt you have to turn injuries off at least some of the games to get any kind of realism though.
