Everyone gives him hell, yes he fumbles at the worst possible times but I don't think anyone can label him a fumbling machine... This shows Ingram, Lacy, Richardson, Drake, Nick Marshall, and Tre Mason. Some will be suprised! If anyone is a fumbling machine it's nick marshall... Yes nick is a qb which will usually have a few more. But he has 9 more in 1 year than Yeldon... No troll, just simply discuss seeing the numbers...

Eddie Lacy used to be the very definition of a fumbling machine and he turned out pretty well

Well if Coker does not work out maybe y'all can try Yeldon at QB since he fumbles less than Marshall. Compare RB to RB and you might have a point. Yeldon fumbles a lot for a RB.


Here are reputable stats showing team fumbles lost. LINK

Tre Mason fumbled more than Yeldon as well.

8 times in two seasons. So maybe just as much as Yeldon

Meh, Mason had a ton more carries...over 100 more the last two years.

Most of Marshall's fumbles were handoff issues that he recovered.

it's unreal how Yeldon's fumbles have come at the worst possible times.

Can't get on reddit at work, but Marshall touches the ball every play. Do they break it down fumbles per touch?


Tre Mason also had more carries, no?

And it did seem like Yeldon fumbled at worst possible times. Still a very good RB.

What about getting your sh*t stuffed on 4th and 1 by a true freshman? What are the stats on that?

So you are telling me that a big DE stopped a RB one on one with nowhere to run? I'm sure he feels real awful and at fault about that. Great post per usual.

Don't say Yeldon is a fumble machine when Marshall fumbled 9 times more and had 40 less carries. I didn't say anything about mason, but he fumbled the same amount the last 2 years. Yes he had more carries but I didn't say anything about him.

Marshall recovered 6 of 14 fumbles.

Don't remember him losing 8 fumbles though.

Point is, the reason people think he is a fumble machine, is he fumbles at the worst times. In big games when everyone is watching! He has fumbled more than our past backs but he isn't a fumble machine and he's still the best running back in the sec, the only other that is close is Gurley and if you can't stay healthy your not the best!

He might have had 40 less carries, but not all those fumbles were on carries. He touches the ball every single play which equates to A LOT more touches than Yeldon. Not sure how you don't comprehend this.







Also, this is directed at everyone, but Mason needs to be eliminated from this conversation. He had over 100 more carries.
