The numbers dont "show it" because McCoy had 3 outlier seasons in which he was so far beyond elite in ball security that it takes his overall fumble % from one end of the spectrum to the other by dropping it by nearly .3%. He was not immune to putting the ball on the ground to where he "never" had a problem with fumbles. Charles was terrible and fumbled 1.7% of the time. In 2012 McCoy fumbled 1.5% of the time.

There isn't a workhorse RB on the planet who is "immune to putting the ball on the ground". Just stop. |

Of course not. But there's also plenty of workhorses that fumbled/fumble far less than McCoy, they just dont typically have the long career of McCoy to show up on the sheet.

This is an interesting conversation and sent me down a rabbit hole.
Derrick Henry puts the ball on the ground once every 135 touches. Mark Ingram puts the ball on the ground once every 119 touches. Jonathan Taylor puts the ball on the ground once every 109 touches. Antonio Gibson puts the ball on the ground once every 65 touches. Nick Chubb puts the ball on the ground once every 156 touches. Kareem Hunt puts the ball on the ground once every 237 touches. CEH puts the ball on the ground once every 172 touches (Very nice - so far proving to not be an issue for him). Priest Holmes put the ball on the ground once every 132 touches. Larry Johnson put the ball on the ground once every 105 touches. Jamaal Charles put the ball on the ground once every 59 touches. Tiki Barber put the ball on the ground once every 52 touches. Fantasy Index actually did an article on this topic and concluded with this. Quote:

It's actually a difference of 7 fumbles. That's a 22% increase. So yes, a pretty big difference.

Priest Holmes Jamaal Charles Christian Okoye Larry Johnson Marcus Allen Kareem Hunt Ed Pokolak Joe Delaney Barry Word Kimble Anders Tony Richardson Greg Hill Jesse Haynes

I want a RB who can make a yard when up against a goal line type defense. Someone big who can take a direct snap, hit a small crease with much power and make it bigger. I don't think CEH is that guy. DO we have one on the team ?

For better or worse, Burton and DWill are the short yardage guys this year... unless you wanna count those shovel passes to Bell and Kelce

It isn’t just this year. We were running gimmicks all last year too because we can’t execute a simple 1 yard play |

I thought Reid mixed them up masterfully in Vegas, we'll get by for now... and look forward to the offseason, no way Veach is happy with what he's seeing |

I dunno, would you consider a guy who spent the majority of his time fumbling around a 1-1.1% rate to normally fumble around a .23% rate? Kareem Hunt, who fumbles at a 100% less rate than McCoy is currently at a .42%
So... outlier or no? Last edited by jd1020; 12-18-2021 at 07:14 PM.. |

He has years ranging from 1 fumble to 4. No, none of them are outliers. The 1 isn't anymore of an outlier than the 4 fumble years.
