    Again, I agree 100%...Would add, I can see the desire to not have QB's injured, as even the NFL is trying its best to protect QB's, but once the QB goes past the LOS, he should be treated as any other rusher, and thus open to the same injury risks...

      This is one of my top big desires to see in CFM. I want to worry about whether my roster is going to be ravaged by injuries, I want to think twice about offering my top receiver a mega contract if he's coming off an ACL injury.

      Injuries are just timeouts at present - I want more of them, and I want them to matter!

        Nice podcast. I am actually into 2022 in an online QB Only CFM that has been a blast. I could not agree more with the Kat and Brian's comments about the information given in game and out of game. A ticker would be great, NCAA did it best but in reality I just want a weekend wrap up show or newspaper-esq thing we can check out in one place. Lose the twitter feeds and put important information on that main page.

        Keep penalties! But tweak the variety...Holding was about 95% of the calls in my league, then Pass interference and then Unsportsmanlike conduct. I used sliders but even then the consistency of the calls remained.

          I like this idea. Make it so that the player might not be the same after the injury. Like Gale Sayers.

            Yeah, but it shouldn't just be another reason for regression - AP didn't suddenly become a substandard player.

            I envisage a true progressive injury system where you have a guy come back from injury and therefore he may be more likely to injure himself in the same place again, even while performing at the top of his game.

              I just wish from a penalty perspective that the C would snap as soon as the D jumped so you can get a free play. Rodgers gets like 2-3 free plays a game. Hoping they implement this.

                I like PastaPadre's site. He lets people speak their minds fully on a topic and state the truth even it's an inconvenient one. The atmosphere at his site lacks unnecessary and prohibitive pressure to conform, and arguments resolve of themselves (as they usually will anyway) without him having to issue electronic threats. Whenever he does step in, he does it professionally and without sounding like some kind of anal retentive e-warden with a chip on his shoulder who gets off on wielding his e-powers. He's a real pro.

                People should really check him out. He runs a great place.

                      Does PP have a forum or just comment sections? Also when you have a smaller community its easier to rely on the maturity of the posters to resolve disputes. Much harder with a forum the size of OS.

                        I thought they brought up some good points about the XP system near the end and I was happy to hear that they didn't like it. I always figured that was something that the more casual side would have been in favor of. Kat also brought up a point of progressing players simply not being fun and I think that is true as well even with auto progression. One of my favorite things from the older Maddens was finishing preseason and going through the progression of my new rookies and my team from the past year. Heck, even in my current MVP 2005 season I can't wait to get through the season and then spring training to see the progression on my players. And you don't really get that gratification or stage of each season where you see a player become something like you used to.

                          Nah, what's weird is that you think my praise of Pasta's operation has anything to do with OS somehow. It doesn't.

                          I just wanted to point out how I feel about his way of doing things because over the years a number of people have accused him of the opposite and I think it's unfair and not based in reality at all. I also thought it was unfair how so many people were accusing him of only backing certain companies when in reality he's been pretty fair with everybody and wound up at odds with some companies over being honest, but nobody ever wanted to bring that up when they talked badly about him. Pasta was getting so many nonsense attacks at one time that he had to start modding comments which I hate now but I understand why he has to do it.

                          But, I guess, it's bad if I praise someone who I think is doing a good job on a topic about that person's work.

                            In terms of penalities and Madden, they should just have an option to turn them off. I wouldn't but options are always welcome for those who do.

In Franchise I carry 2 QB's and in MUT I carry 1; I also only carry 1 RB, generally, in MUT, so they won't get injured..This is unrealistic, and EA needs to change the logic that can be used by users to manipulate the game.

                                Of course I am a proponent of seeing linemen get injured; maybe not for weeks or a season, but we could start slow with a player being out for a quarter or half, of a game, which would make depth charts worth more, other than being places to keep players we are trying to build into starters, and also force users in other modes, like MUT, to build a full roster.
                                I can assure you having only 2 does not prevent injury....I've lost my stud QB for 6-8 games in some seasons.
