OOOH Well look at you with your fancy statistics and spreadsheets, I'm just so envious of your advanced saber metric prowess. Sorry I don't have a super computer keeping track of these things professor Einstein, not all of us are NASA rocket scientists.

Fixed for accuracy. Why do people continue to claim that Ridley has these terrible fumbling issues? He lost ONE fumble last season. The one in the postseason. That's it.
With all due respect to both of you, I think there is an argument that could be made that you are both correct in some fashion.
In regards to Ryno--I too have stuck up for Ridley and his "fumbling issues." You are correct in stating that he only lost ONE fumble, and that the perceived issue may be way overblown. Kudos for pointing that out, as many tend to already worry about what may amount to nothing out of the ordinary.
On the other hand though, I can also see where TyronePoole is coming from too, since Ridley actually did fumble twice in consecutive games, although one went out of bounds; and at that point in the season, those games are important.
It should be noted in fairness that on one of those fumbles (not sure if it was the one that went OOB, or the one that he lost) he did get lit up like a Xmas tree, and it isn't out of the realm of possibility to think that just about anyone would have probably lost the ball there.
No disrespect intended for chiming in, I just thought maybe you'd both like to hear that you were probably correct on some level, and that it may make you feel better that no one was really 'wrong' is this case.
