I beileve the info on this has been updated to reflect the following (and there were some errors in the original) PLAYER CONDITIONS: First, player conditions have nothing to do with how often you use a player or how often he is tackled or how many yards he gains. Conditions change after the end of each quarter. So conditions change at the beginning of the 2nd,3rd and 4th quarter. There is no condition change in overtime or to start the game. Here is how the conditions change: CURRENT CONDITION: Bad: 75% stay in bad, 25% move to average 0% move to good, 0% move to excellent Average: 12.5% move to bad, 75% stay in average, 12.5% move to good, 0% move to excellent Good: 0% move to bad, 12.5% move to average, 75% stay in good, 12.5% move to excellent Excellent: 0% move to bad, 0% move to average, 25% move to good, 75% stay in excellent As you can see a player can stay in a condition for a very long time. Conditions only move up one level at a time per change. So they can't go from BAD to EXCELLENT in a condition change. As you get towards the end of the season the best estimate of the distribution of conditions will something like this. Of course it likely won't be the same as this but this is the best guess based on the probabilities. Bad: 16.7% (1/6) Average: 33.3% (1/3) Good: 33.3% (1/3) Excellent: 16.7% (1/6)
