Also, if we're pinning the 2020 loss vs. Balt. on JT's 1st quarter fumble then we should pin these Tits losses in 2022 on Henry:

- 36-22 loss to the Jagoffs where he lost 2 fumbles (game that Commish linked)
- 19-14 loss to the Texans where Henry lost a fumble while in FG range, which HOU then converted the TO into a FG




This is highly debatable.




It doesn't get any more obvious and objective than Chaos' earlier post showing that JT has a lower fumble rate than 8 of the 10 greatest RBs of all time.

I acknowledged that he improved his overall fumble rate from college. His fumbles hurt the team, though, as does his piss poor pass pro, as does his inability to improve at the elements of being a RB that aren't running the ball.

By getting caught up on the fumble piece, you're missing the point, which is that JT is a good player who could be great if he was willing to put in the effort. The improved fumble rate even plays into that argument. He got better at a skill when he tried to improve it. So why can't he get better at pass pro or receiving? I feel like the answer is lack of effort, especially with the pass pro, because RB pass pro is pretty much all about effort. It's a learned skill, not an ability which a player can cover a lack of technique up with athletic gifts.
