No because of the lack of options for substitutions. If my #1 QB leaves the game I want my #2 to play as many plays as possible but if my #2 gets an in-game injury I need to have a #3. We can have 3 players in the DC but they can't be ranked #1, #2 and #3 and asked to sub only in case of injury.

Sorry if it's already been mentioned, I've not read the entire thread.

I voted yes, because I do like that it forces teams to develop depth, but this is a valid point. an 'Emergency only' classification (similar as 'starter') in the depth chart would be nice.

Would also help at WR i.e.:
I want 3 guys to rotate at the Top 2 WR positions, a 4th guy to join in 4 WR formations and 2 other guys to fill in for injuries.

You can't do that right now

No because sometimes injured players come back in real College and NFL games. If going make this a rule at least make it were some of injured players come back in games.

Please make this "Season" ending injuries, not "Game", we spend ALOT of time getting these players trained up and for them to just GO all of a sudden would be hard to put up with, this is messing with peoples real life time spent....

Uh...I am misunderstanding something?

Game ending is that single match you play at a given saturday as example. It does not refer to "finished with RedZoneAction"...

That's a valid point. I guess pretty rare scenario but indeed we should consider it it the decision.

My HS football coach had a promising career as a possible NFL offensive lineman; then had his right eye-ball ripped out, of which ended his football career.

Yes, is my vote. And season ending or career ending?

Why can't something that is realistic be fun at the same time?

He was the best football coach I ever had.
