I remember he muffed one at the end of the comeback at the eagles game I believe? (the game with the Roy INT) but thankfully he recovered.

:D

In all fairness, he hasn't carried the load of a starter but still an amazing stat.

He fumbled three times in '05 but recovered them all.

Still, it's very impressive that he hasn't lost a fumble in 320+ touches.

According to NFL.com, he's fumbled 3 times.

That's what my memory tells me too...but I'm getting old.;)

They both are Parcells players. Neither are fumblers. We have one of the best offenses in the league now. Hopefully we'll avoid any injuries thruout the year.

If we didn't recover that fumble in the second Eagles game, that would've been a killer.

But he's a lot better from what he was last year.

Okay Sporto, you are on the hook now.

If he fumbles on Christmas, IT IS ON YOU!

Actually, one of the biggest knocks on MBIII last season, especially in the early goings, was his propensity to kind of juggle the ball around in his grasp when he took the handoff.

In fact, Parcells made him carry a football around with him in Oxnard this year because he had so many issues. So if you jinxed him, it's all your fault.

For the violent running style he has, it's amazing he doesn't put the ball on the floor.

That's what I remember, Marion fumbling early on and Parcells having issue with it. It is amazing that none of our backs have been putting the ball on the carpet much or at all this season. I just hope we finally take advantage of a team that is bad against the run. The Eagles run D is porous right? How many times have we gone against a lousy run defense only to struggle on the ground? Too many.

Barber recovered two of his own fumbles, and Lousaka Polite recovered it the other time Barber fumbled.

Barber fumbled twice against Seattle and once at Philadelphia.

Knock on wood AND you better light some candles, sacrifice a chicken, and drink it's blood just to be sure.
