It's nice that he's running so hard, and gaining yards, but that fumbling crap has got to stop. It's stupid that he's had one for 4 straight games now. I keep hearing every week how that will stop cause they'll coach him up but good grief. How many games in a row does he have to fumble before he's coached up and gets it? Good lord.

With Murray's ability to break a couple 15-20 yders each game along with the tough 3-5 yders with the solid OL blocking, 1500 is a realistic goal assuming he stays healthy. The fumbles must be eliminated however. There's no way around that. If the team can avoid the early game meltdowns, the running game can be a huge factor in the outcome of games - ex. Tennessee.

He fumbled against Tennessee as well

This is my thing, Murray is fumbling within the first series or two. Let me ask you a question, would you rather have Murray fumble in the first few minutes of a game get mad and run over 100 yards and a TD or not fumble and run 40-60 yards and no touchdown?

He needs to stop fumbling but right now it hasn't cost us the game

Murray is beasting. STL bottled him up and he still got 100 yards. The fumbles will cease because he knows they have to.

The only issue is he should have put the issue to bed after game 1 if not game 2. Part of me thinks he is making less "business" decisions this year and that he is trying to get every inch on a given play.
