What does the future hold for Mr. Ridley? Clearly a very talented running back but Belichick is not going to accept fumbling, he never has and never will. I expect Ridley to work out his ball security issues and get back out there and be the 1,200-1,300 yards back he is capable of being.
I do have a second question for you all; are these fumbling issues connected to Ridley being knocked out cold last year in the AFC championship game? The fumbles all appear to be occurring when he is changing direction, making a move or hitting a hole which makes me wonder if he is focusing too much on what could be coming and losing his focus on ball security.
