It would seem that the Bye Week's purpose should be a little rest, but a bunch of guys plummeted from 100% to the 70s heading into our next game.
This all seems pretty counter-intuitive to me.

Is there a reason that my team goes into the Bye Week with great conditioning, then everyone falls off the table right after not playing?It would seem that the Bye Week's purpose should be a little rest, but a bunch of guys plummeted from 100% to the 70s heading into our next game.

They shouldn't, unless it's their regular weekly attitude issues. Are they low-Attitude guys?--Chris

But the bigger point is that for the Bye Week, pretty much everyone had 100% conditioning, and not playing shouldn't drop everyone down again. It seems that there should be some boost from a Bye Week besides the hope of getting a player back from injury if it times out that way.

Yes, those two guys are low attitude.

What makes it look like the bye week caused it is that the new Conditioning is shown immediately after the prior game, but this is done because in real life you'd see the lack of work ethic during the week or Sunday morning and have time to bench the player or give him Conditioning drills, but in reality we don't have that much time, so the Conditioning you see is a bit of time-travel. looking ahead to what's in store for that player so you have time to do something about it.

"Not playing" isn't what's doing it. Every week, players practice and train, and Conditioning reflects how hard that player practiced and how ready he is to play. If a low-Attitude player spends Saturday night partying at the club and isn't at his best Sunday morning, the fact that he had a bye the prior Sunday isn't going to change that.What makes it look like the bye week caused it is that the new Conditioning is shown immediately after the prior game, but this is done because in real life you'd see the lack of work ethic during the week or Sunday morning and have time to bench the player or give him Conditioning drills, but in reality we don't have that much time, so the Conditioning you see is a bit of time-travel. looking ahead to what's in store for that player so you have time to do something about it.
