Lol, not trying to argue.  Just wanting to now make sure that you clearly understand that a fumble is when the ball comes loose, prior to the ball carrier being "down".  There really is no "fumble that isn't a fumble", as when the ground causes the ball to come loose, the player is already "down", therefore a person that is "down" cannot possibly cause a fumble. 

In football speaking, nomenclature means everything.
