Singletary was close to fumbling with seconds remaining

For whatever reason he doesn’t have two hands on the ball. His left hand is clutching his right hand. Weird and he, and the Bills, are lucky it didn’t pop out.

Seriously?

 

Visualize they are going to punch/strip the ball, that is EXACTLY how you would cradle the boy.

 

Absurd thread about a non-event.

Never saw this angle before. Watch how close Singletary to blowing the game here. Time for a RB upgrade!

I suspect that Kyle Orton is somehow behind this.

Honestly in my opinion it is a story. The guy is small 5’7 or so right? He has short arms. He is more vulnerable to fumbling than a guy 5’10 or taller. He is also considerably shorter than your average NFL RB don’t you think? He fumbled and lost it once last week and almost did again. I love the guy but I’m just stating facts here

Then why doesn’t he have a higher fumbling rate.  
 

Oh those pesky facts

This is just so us!

It was a great punch and he held on to win the game.  

 

Exactly.  How many "almost" plays are there in EVERY game?  Dozens.

 

Dumb thread.  Sorry @Einstein

 

[Big Turk]

Yeah I saw this the other day somewhere else...I wondered why Singletary went down like that initially when watching but then it became obvious...it was almost like a half dive on the ball fall by him.  Also love 93 with his hands to his head like "WTF are you doing bro, they said let him score!!"

And you wonder why you get so much s**t around here…another stellar garbage thread for the purpose of being negative.  
 

It was f-ing raining and wet.  Shocker a ball almost came out.  DIGGS also had a TD go right through his wet hands, do we need to upgrade him too?
 

Im ashamed at myself for even wasting my time posting in this absolutely pointless thread.  I’m gonna go hold my hand over a candle flame until it burns as punishment.

Aaaaand he didn’t fumble. Aaaaand we won. 

 

I'm not picking on you but this take is wrong. It does matter. McD will not play our 2nd round pick because of fumbles but Singletary has the 2nd highest fumble rate in the league. He has lost very few of them but that is largely luck. I need to see Cook on the field or someone else. Singletary is a liability. 

 

My problem with McD here is his process is BS. He is more concerned with the outcome than the process. 

[Back2Buff]

Ball never even hit the ground.  What a dumb thread.

He does.

 

Singletary fumbles approximately 1.5% of his carries over his career

 

The average fumble rate in the NFL from 2013-2018 (closest date I could find) is 0.87%

So about half of Singletary's fumble rate. The league, on average, fumbles about half as often as Singletary does.

This is McD’s fault somehow. Or should I be more worried about Elam?

 

It's because he signed too many defensive tackles

It's not "for the purpose of being negative". Do you think I scout the internet to find negatives? I do not.

 

The purpose of this thread is a discussion about how we need a better RB. And one piece of evidence is Singletary's difficulties with hanging onto the ball. It is certainly not his only issue, but it is one of them.

[Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD]

This is more of a compliment to Singletary that he held on to it despite a great strip attempt by the defender.

[JakeFrommStateFarm]

Send him packing with Edmunds.

 

And START COOK !!!

Starting to wonder if the OP's screen name and threads are meant to be ironic.

He's lost the ball (an actual turnover) 3 times in 4 years.  Over 650 touches (rushing and receiving) and he's only lost the ball 3 times.  This is almost as good as your shortened vid of the Ingram strip sack where you fail to show DE blowing by the tackle and blame Singletary for the sack.

Has edmunds ever forced a fumble before?

He’s credited for 2 his rookie year. None since.
