I know injuries are all "part of the game" etc etc But I've just had two straight games with 9 players getting injured in each so I have 18 injured players with 10 of them being over 4 weeks or more.

I was 11-1 before injuries hit, 12-2 now so I reckon 8 of them are done for the season but I can't IR any of them and they're too good to outright cut.

It happens that way sometimes. I've had as many as 21 injuries before. Bottom line is some of those probables will have to play, so look for the least injured and play them.

QBs never get injured. Time to change everyone's position to QB... *snicker* :P
Seriously though, on the team home page, if one clicks the injury column to get the injured at the top of roster list, the players are listed from most to least.
I'll play anyone with an injury rating of 65 and over, and have had to dip a bit lower from time to time to keep the 46 active required for each game.

Yeah with this many injured the 46 player minimum means a few players who definitely shouldn't be active will have to be.

The ones who are playing hurt, maybe you can bury them in the depth chart so they only play if they have to.

BTW QBs do get injured but it's rare.

Yeah they'll definitely be buried at the bottom

The entire backfield on my team was injured in the last pre-season game this season in the Just For Fun league. My starter was put out for 10+ weeks, #2 for 6+ and #3 for a couple of weeks. So I was scrambling to fill those spots.

It usually happens to my teams by groups. Like, the D-line will all have injuries. Or O-line, secondary, etc. It happens and it's frustrating. *shrug

I always play probable players unless it's the last week of the season, and I'm resting for the playoffs.

Make sure that you are adjusting your fatigue ratings. The default fatigue rating is what causes most of the injuries.

44 active players is the minimum not 46.. at 44 the AI shouldn't make any auto adjustments.

Isn't it 45? But it has been more than a year since I toyed with getting away with having that # in red on the depth chart.
