I have a question about changes to injuries in the new engine. In my last exhibition game the following happened:

"The refs have stopped play. Donald Gilman is in a lot of pain and is being checked by the trainers. He's grabbing the back of his leg. It doesn't look like he is going to be able to return to the game."

He wasn't able to return to the game but he was 100% health after the game. I have never seen that before. Is that a change in the new engine? Players recover that quickly?

Good question. His durability is only 18. If an 18 durability recovers faster in this engine than a 90 DU did in the old engine, something is wrong. Does anyone have experience with the change in value of durability in the new engine? I have never considered DU worth anything.

Most likely a minor injury in which a player with a higher DUR rating may not have even come out of the game.

Excellent thought oldwarrior. Does anyone know if, in fact, the new engine creates more small injuries in game for low DU players? That would be an interesting twist.

It would fit with what Seeble seemed to be saying abotu more small injuries than big ones.  ANyone had a big injury yet under thenew engine?

I have heard of some serious injuries, but Wooden just started so I will wait and see. If a player with DU of 18 is removed from a game but is able to play at 100% the next game, I would expect that if any player stays in the game after the injury, he should be 100% next game also. Does that make sense?

Lost my SR PG (20 DU) to injury with 2 games left in the regular season.  Went down to 50% and was "out" for 3 days.  Had a bye in the CT and tonight he's back to 60% so I don't dare use him.  Sucks because we go no where without him.
