After a huge win last week, Bad Company was looking to build on that and move to 2-1 this weekend. Imagine our surprise when our QB comes in this evening with a huge gash on his throwing hand. He tells us he was playing with his model railroad and the engine accidentally ran over his hand.

Of all the luck...



That's so weird, my starting QB went down last year doing the exact same thing. We've banned model railroads from all our players now

I'm feeling your pain right now... Great start to the season, was looking forward to the chance at starting 3-0 atop the division. Now, our QB is currently out for the next 13 days. Luckily, I have a serviceable back-up ready to go. Definitely a lot sooner than I wanted the team's QB of the future thrust into the fire, but I guess this weekend will be a good chance to see what the young man is made of early into his career.

I've told him he should switch to drones. That's much safer, there's no way he could get hurt playing with a drone!

Docs say my starting CB can play if I give him a shot for the pain. Well, then, shoot him up and roll him out there!

luckily for me, my wide receiver doubles as a very acceptable quarterback. And in fact he was going to be my quarterback until I found Benson on the market, and spent almost 2 full seasons being trained as my starting QB

he performed amazingly well today, and led us to a victory

I'm pretty surprised to see my QB threw 6 interceptions this week yet I managed to squeak out a win. That usually signals doom.

What's even more interesting is the line up your opponent used. The 6 INT's reflect the fact that zones just get adjusted to compensate for missing positions and just as expected, the INT percentages for the safety and CB positions went way up as they were shifting to make up for two missing LBs. Real data and interesting as always, thanks

A lot of good teams in NA TD right now, I think a good mix of high con and low/mid con players is needed. I assume your high skilled players are evenly trained with good fitness levels. Perhaps you are just not getting good rolls the last few games
