As best I can tell the problem is that they swing the ball away from the body all the time as they try to cut.


That's what I've observed all too often this year especially with Drake. The aggravating thing is that it can be fixed. I doubt Ingram and Trent just naturally carried the ball so tight to their bodies. It was a practice that was learned and reinforced through repetition. Not sure why it's not happening with TJ and Drake.

I wonder if it has to do with their body types compared to Trent/Mark. Yeldon and Drake both have an almost WR "All purpose back" type body. Both are kinda lanky for a RB with longer arms.
