No disrespect HuskerRed, as opinion is opinion, but you totally contradicted yourself in that statement. If he was brought in for short yardage situations, where the defense is 'more hungry for the ball', then he too would understand that the defense was more hungry for the bal.. therefore the reason for him being a short yard back, to hold onto the football, and get the short yards?Hey now :cop:Lester Ward....the guy who will benefit if Q can't stop fumbling.
I'm sure Q will have a much better year in 2009. I have some thoughts in mind as to why he fumbled a lot in '08. For example, he was brought into a lot of short yardage situations where the defense is more hungry for the ball than ever, and I'm sure that played a factor.
But, there is absolutely no excuse for a fumble, so there really is no excuse.
