Sure, Joe Flacco is leading the league in fumbles, with 10. Sure Colt McCoy and Sam Bradford are in hot pursuit with 9, with Michael Vick and Blaine Gabbert bringing up the rear with 8. But these guys handle the ball on every play. What about the guy who is averaging a fumble every 4.8 times he touches the ball?
Tampa Bay WR Preston Parker is your man. Arrested in 2007 after falling asleep at the drive-thru window at a McDonald's at 4 am while totally having the munchies but passing out before the bag arrived (arrest officially for a DUI and 'under the influence' of pot), Parker is keeping up the fuzzy senses all the way to 2011. 29 catches on the season, and 6 fumbles. Wow! I wonder how many of QB Josh Freeman's 15 interceptions are tipped balls by Parker? I'm guessing four, at least. No wonder the Bucs have faded to 4-6.
Doormat ALL-STAR!
Does he carry the ball like a it was an angry cat? Or like it has dog poop on it? Good grief, that's over 20 percent of the time.
ReplyDeleteMan, speaking of fumbles, the Niners didn't even get CLOSE to Flacco yesterday to test the fumble-itis. NINE sacks of Smith. NINE.
