Simple solution.

Injured player who stops play must stay out for remainder of series.

it's very hard for refs to determine if a player is faking injury. But they should institute a rule that any injured player must sit out 7 plays or the rest of the series, whichever is longer.

I dont think its that hard, when a guy is just standing around then grabs his calf, and one team has it happen several times a game. However your idea is excellent, regardless if fake or not, injured players have to sit out several plays.

Dude was a lousy actor, somebody needs to tell him to grab his knee immediately after he's hit the ground, not after he's walked on it.

This could be dealt with really easy. 1st injury timeout per half no problem. The second or more costs you a timeout.

So if a team has 3 legit injuries in a half they should be penalized?

There will always be a grey area to every rule. While we dont like it, this is one of them.

Offenses take advantage of the rules and defense take advantage of the rules. I don't have a problem with it.
