Forced fumbles - 14th (1)


This doesn't really bother me a whole lot. It's nice to get fumbles but if players focus too much on punching the ball it sometimes leads to more yards for a ball carrier. It can also mean that ball carriers are wrapping the ball up better against us. Turnovers can be a hit and miss thing. I like to see the rankings overall.

I get your frustration to a certain degree. But, he is first in passing attempts in the conference and second in passing yards.

People were screaming they wanted us to open up the passing game more. Well. It's opened up. The more you throw the ball, the more INTs you are going to get. Overall, Beck has done a great job and is doing better every week.

I don't know (remember) where on the field his INTs have come, but it seems like we are fumbling the ball more than normal. I like having Meeks as our returner as he is electric with the ball in his hands, but he seems to drop the ball a bit too often for my taste.

Ftr, Beck only has 4 INTs, so it's not like he is being extremely careless with the ball. (Although 1 or two of his INTs were bad ones)

Crap. I was thinking Mews and typed Meeks. Thanks for the correction.
