    Can we please discuss this without making stuff up? The Patriots DO NOT have "absurdly (and statistically different)" number of fumbles. They didn't even lead the league this year. And the avg number of fumbles per game was 1.4, the Patriots had 0.9 and the Redskins had 1.9, so not statistically different at all. And if you look at the 2013 season they had 1.5 fumbles on avg and where ranked in the bottom quarter.

    0.9 to 1.4 is statistically significant. That is over a 50% increase.

    not disagreeing with you here but if the Evil Empire thought it was a good idea why would they hide it?

    1 team had 0.6, 3 teams had 0.9, another 3 teams had 1.0. So yeah no, that's not "statistically different", that's just being in the top quarter. And you elegantly failed to address last year where they ranked in the bottom.

    Indeed

    Good for you for not eating what the media is feeding everyone, was hoping someone would notice these stats were found after the answer was already determined.

    But it is sorta strange Legarret Blount fumbles half as much as when he was a Buc, so there is some merit to what these guys are getting at.

    I was just responding to what you had in your post. And being in the top quarter is statistically different from the mean, if that is what you're referencing.
