Mike Goodson's fumbling problem

[Davidson Deac II]

Both Tiki Barber and Adrian Peterson were known for their fumbling problems and they both corrected them. it can be done

This. Adrian Peterson had 1 fumble for every 44 carries two years ago, last year he cut down to one fumble for the season.

and get used to overpaying for stars, we aren't a big market team, 2-14 at that, we aren't a desirable city for most people with cash, especially young. Overpaying, is what we have to give. Goodson was an argument for why we shouldn't have given so much. I don't know how anyone knows if a player is overpaid until he completes what he is being paid for. I'd hate to go to work with that mindset.

Outside of us being 2-14 none of that other stuff matters. If this team starts winning consistently it wont matter if we are a small market team. Players want to win games. Hurney has always overpaid for his own players its nothing new. I'm not complaining just saying.

thanks, I couldn't think of the exact numbers but I remember that he decreased them drastically.

Another notable fumbler...

It's too early to give up on Goody.

I want Sutton to get more carries.

I think Sutton is underrated as a RB. They should give him more opportunities. If I remember right he did pretty well last year in the regular season against defenses.

I thought he fumbled more than that. Maybe that is one lost fumble?

did sutton get beat out by vaughn?

Nfl.com says one total. Of course, they could be wrong. :)

Not that we would have noticed last year, since Peterson's fumble total was not about Brett Farve.

YP, that's a great question. Vaughn jumped Sutton in the depth chart apparently didn't he?

[fam4life09]

3 more Preseason games to go, he can do it!

[setzer2030]

Yes, Eddie Winslow needs to learn how to hold on to the ball.

At least he says he wants to fix it...

Not going to lie, if he wants to see the field he should be telling Coach Rivera that; not the fans. Sure, we are upset that he can't hang on to the damn ball but no need to apologize to us.

Anyway in response to the original question,

Goodson will definitley be on the team because of what he brings to the team, but if he does not solve his problem by the end of the season; I could see him being traded for a 5th round pick to someone in need of a runningback.

Also of note in 125 total carries in the regular season (since Goodson has been in the league), he has fumbled five times.

Leaving him with a horrific, one fumbler per every 25 carries. That has to be one of the worst in the league. He also has two fumbles on kick returns.

wonder if we could package him in a trade to get a #2 CB
