Leonard Fournette has fumbled twice in the last six years. Chase Brown fumbled twice in the last five games. Khalil Herbert and Burrow bungled the exchange on his first snap Thursday (granted, had zero full speed practices together).

That's not the greatest reasoning to bring in an age 29 RB who has only had >4.0ypc in 2 of his 7 years.

BJGE didn't fumble a single time in 4 years with the Patriots. He fumbled 5 times in 2 years with the Bengals. It doesn't always transfer.

Also Fournette has a lot of catches, but also more than his share of drops, and there's a reason why the Bucs brought Gio in to pass block (even though that ended up not working out health-wise).

All these little cost savings add up to LOSSES on SUNDAY. And what were we saving for????? We did not even extend Chase. His price is going up and up and up with each game played. Very smart move by the FO once again.

Mixon had amazing ball security, but the hurt part is pure revisionist history.

Mixon missed multiple games in 4 of his 7 years here plus games where he played but got hurt and couldn't finish.

With us he had two concussions, a knee, a shin, and 4 ankle/foot injuries (and then got a 5th this year).
