Injuries

First season, but looks like these injuries to offensive linemen are a lil ridiculous! 4th different one to get injured in 5th game is very unrealistic. Offensive linemen don't get injured that often.

One thought is to check your fatigue ratings in game planning under misc. set it lower and the probability for injuries drop.

They actually do, if they are probable than they can play through it which real life players are almost always playing through some kind of injury during the season.

Rarely in the NFL is a teams offensive linemen all banged up after the first reg season game. By the end of the yr? Yeah I can see more probables, but this is unrealistic at the moment. Many teams only dress 1 or 2 extra off linemen a game because it's one of the more rare positions to get injured at, but so far it looks like one of the more injury prone positions in this game.

How many guys are lost for the season in real life before a regular season game is even played? If anything injuries here are far more forgiving.

Keep it on the subject tho of offensive linemen... rarely ever is a teams starting o line dismantled at the beginning of the season.

how much experience do they hav?if they're newer players they put themselves in bad positioning,hence more likely to b injured.

2 at 100. 2 under 50. I get what you are saying and maybe that applies to this sim game. I'm sure it applies some in real life, but not quite to this extent. Maybe I'm unlucky at the moment and I won't face this for a while again.
