Just curious if this has anything to do with the ball security issues

Seems ball security is worse this year, and interestingly, they just stayed using this. Wonder...any correlation?

Correct me if I am wrong

But hasn't our main problem been with receivers fumbling? Deshaun has had a little problem too.

TD had the ball high and tight. In that situation. He needed both hands on the ball. He was running like the band major too...straight up without that goal line lean. Gallman got knocked into lala land by a target. Coaching can't help that.

Maybe the receivers need a beeping ball, especially MW. Like my coach used to tell me...swings it like a loaf of bread.

I'm old school! I would think practicing with a different type ball would not be a good thing! IMO! I would like to see some research of other teams who use these type balls!

Gallman's was understandable, but Dye too? I'd assume this ball is likely being used some with WR's. Just seems odd they start using this, then we have more fumbles. Last year, our TO's all the way to playing SCar were mainly DW's interceptions. ..this year seems to have much more fumbling.

No it's just receivers trying to do to much with when they should just get down... Gallman gets a pass on the fumble it was a dirty hit. All others no excuses
