Clippers of Nfl Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Last year the pats* fumbled 13 times, but only lost 4. An entire season This year the pats* have fumbled 3 times, and lost 2. In 2 weeks! On pace for an average season of 24 fumbles with 16 lost. What excuse will the pats* have?

Hasn't the same guy fumbled twice? Is the third fumble the brady strip sack? If so, besides having less than 2 PSI in the ball and a hand full of stick'um (ala Orlando Jones in The Replacements), i don't think there was any stopping that fumble!

The guy doesnt fumble twice last year when they were running a nerf ball.
Pneumonic Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Then dont. The guy doesnt fumble twice last year when they were running a nerf ball. Kinda hard for the guy who fumbled twice this year to have fumbled last year .... given the guy didn't even play in the NFL last year.
Garranimal Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Then dont. The guy doesnt fumble twice last year when they were running a nerf ball. Ok, now you made me look him up. So smart guy, this is his first year with the Patriots and he has never fumbled before. Soooo, does that mean that the eagles have been using flabby balls as well? Good lord, the Bills Fan on Bills Fan crime around here is off the hook!
NoSaint Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Then dont. The guy doesnt fumble twice last year when they were running a nerf ball. why would anyone stand in the way of this roll you are trying to get on....

Man you know what I meant. That same guy Lewis or whatever would not have fumbled last year holding a nerf ball. Im not the bad guy here.
Clippers of Nfl Posted September 22, 2015 Author Posted September 22, 2015 why would anyone stand in the way of this roll you are trying to get on.... Exactly.
Garranimal Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 why would anyone stand in the way of this roll you are trying to get on.... true, my bad. The floor is yours! (nothing is over until we say it is <<<<heard in the background)
Clippers of Nfl Posted September 22, 2015 Author Posted September 22, 2015 The gas isn't ideal just yet. GO BILLS!!! Yeah maybe too soon. But still. Half of all the fumbles from last year, already in only 2 weeks...
ko12010 Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 What's kind of funny is that last year I believe Jerry Hughes had an almost exact same play where he came around the edge and hit Brady while Tomahawking at his right arm where the ball is. Last year, Brady miraculously held on. Like it seemed impossible that he could. This year, ball comes right out when Jerry chops down. Obviously Jerry may have slightly missed on the chop last year, but they were very similar plays with different results.
NoSaint Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Yeah maybe too soon. But still. Half of all the fumbles from last year, already in only 2 weeks... well, 3 isnt half of 13..... but still.
BUFFALOKIE Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 well, 3 isnt half of 13..... but still. The first half of 13 is 1. The second half is 3. Is that so hard to figure out?
Maddog69 Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 well, 3 isnt half of 13..... but still.I assume he was referring to fumbles lost. Last year's total was 4. They've lost 2 in 2 games. Fumbles were supposedly the main reason the *Pats wanted the balls deflated. If this trend continues, it does certainly provide anectodatal data supporting this theory.
