The ground can't cause a fumble is a major misnomer. Just think of when Eli slid head first and fumbled...the ground obviously caused the fumble but he was never down.

The statement simply means that if the ball comes out after a person's body touches down, then it isn't a fumble.

Eli's play was like Griffin' of a few years ago. When a QB gives himself up the ground can in fact cause a fumble. Last night was like the Ernest Byner fumble against the Eagles in that playoff game. In both cases I believe the ground can't cause a fumble on a player who is being tackled.

Need a smarter plan to change up what the players are NOT executing then.

It can. All that is being said is if a person is down before the ball comes out, then it isn't a fumble because the ground can't cause it.

In actual words...the ground can cause a fumble if you are not down by contact.

Passer rating can be an overrated stat because KC failed the eye test last night.

Absolutely. Have to look at context.

I'm not buying...

Of course they did...because they are stubborn and idiots when it comes to DY IMO.
