[QUOTE="King Wayne, post: 19105, member: 250"] in case you cant find anything this is from 12/03 Packers.com NO ROGER MARIS ASTERISK FOR GREEN: Ahman Green figures to break Taylor's single-season record in 14 games, the same number of contests Taylor needed in 1962. In a conference call with Wisconsin media last Thursday, Taylor questioned Green's fumble ratio, saying that Vince Lombardi did not permit players to fumble. So, the Packers looked up the numbers: * Over their careers in a Packers uniform (where they played the vast majority of their NFL games), Taylor actually fumbled (one fumble every 61.0 touches) more often than Green (one fumble every 63.2 touches). * Even Green's idol, the late Walter Payton, fumbled more often. Payton over his Bears career fumbled 34 times in 2,173 touches (50.5). [url="http://www.packers.com/news/releases/2003/12/10/1/"]http://www.packers.com/news/releases/2003/12/10/1/[/url] according to the packer site he has the lowest fumble/touch ratio in packers history as well. What to do about that one fellows? [/QUOTE]
