I don't understand the whole thing.

Why not just put both QBs in the DC and not the 3rd? And then when both starters get injured the 3rd plays.

I have 3 WRs in my DC atm and a 4th is chosen (I have 5 all up), depending on their energy I imagine, when the 4WR formation is called.

You have only 50 players. So all players are avaiable during the game, even though you have only 45 on your DC.

If you have more than 55 players and only 45 on your DC, than the engine fill the DC with 10 more players before the game. THis is absolutly random and it would be luck, if you have your 3rd QB on the DC or not.

So why is this - because it's unreasonable to have 70 available for a game?

Even so, why not just have the extra randomly put on the "matchday squad" instead of on the DC?

Thanks for the info - I would not have liked to have been caught off guard by that somewhere down the track!

Because we had this before that both QB get injured in a game i carry always 3 QB in depth chart

But either i play "dont substitute QB" so i play all the time only one QB

Or i would play open and then all 3 would play

I would prefer to have on QB an "emergency spot"


So this could make it to play

#1 and #2 in rotation
and #3 would only come in when #1 AND #2 injured in game

Personall i do not see exploit risk since QB is only position with only 1 starter need and i can use the "emergency spot" only when field 3 QB


Keep as it is. Play dont subsitute but if he gets injured there are backups.

Pete will clarify this but if your starting QB got hurt then the 2nd man would come in and would play the remainder of the game unless he gets hurt then 3rd man comes in. The check box is against a position not a player

So has the idea of selecting the 55 players for the game been suggested b4?

In other words, you have, say, 45 players on the DC and then you simply s e l e c t another 10 players from the roster for the game. The rest of the roster simply do not play under any circumstances - not suited up on the day.

But that dosnĀ“t solve the problem if you want to rotate 2 Players... and the 3rd shoul only jump in if one of the others is hurt.

The next one will rotate 3 or 4 players on a spot, another one likes to go with 5.

This is a never ending story. And, it makes the setup so much more complicating, without any real benefit.

I have very bugging players and every dick wants to play QB for a while.
I'm totally lost here. I need a "shot the most bugging player" option. ....

Seriously .... It's a management simulation. If such things happen in real life, the team is fucked. Can't see, why it shouldn't be the same here.
