Too many injuries to key players. All three rbs are injured and at least one gets injured every week and yes my fatigue levels are low other than qb and kicker no position is higher than 42 with my backfield at 38. Sorry it hurts when you have a decent caliber of team with only 16 games a season.

I feel you. Every season grinds a little because it feels like I'm never playing my best 22. I keep 4 RBS and last season I had to play two of the least hurt during a brutal stretch of the season.

It sucks sometimes but other times the depth challenge is fun for me

Injuries ****, especially when they're clustered in a single position group. Having all 3 RBs dinged up already sucks, but that's why I try and have 4 RB. You might have to have them play hurt, it's not unheard of for players to play hurt.

In MFN context, I once had a LC game against Seth who had a star RB with a 36% healthy foot. I thought no way he plays, but not only did he play, he played well.

It's not like you have to look these guys in the eyes, sending them on the field gimpy. No repercussions, other than maybe hurting him more, so what.

Good luck with however you navigate your backfield.

Yea i have to play them hurt. Qb gutierrez does surprisingly well when he runs the ball but my guess is he would falter as the featured back. Gonna play jensen and lettuce

I actually enjoy the injury factor...It creates problem solving during the course of a season and will test the depth and versatility of your roster.

I have another league (Death & Destruction) with no injuries and no rules and I never touch the depth chart all season and only 30 of the 53 man roster get significant snaps which can get boring.

This is a roster management sim and the injuries are nowhere near the level that occurs in the NFL. I can't even remember the last time I put a player on injured reserve and I've NEVER had 2 in a season..

Take the Baltimore Ravens last season! in the NFL......RB1, RB2, RB3 and CB2 all injured in training camp and out for the season!!! Imagine dealing with that here!!!!
