I'm trying to better understand how substitutions and playing time work when using Follow Depth Chart and No Garbage time.

What determines how many minutes a starter gets compared with his backup?
How much does Stamina influence this and are there other factors involved apart from injuries and foul trouble?

In particular, can a player with good Stamina still end up playing significantly fewer than 40 minutes even when he is the clear starter and there is no obvious reason to keep him on the bench?
