Is anyone else having issues with more fumbles this season than last season? My RB had only 2 fumbles last year on 212 carries. This year he's fumbled 4 times in the first 4 games.
A HB on my other team has about 6 fumbles through the first 4 games and had only 4 all of last year.

Any ideas? I'll post my attributes if that will help. The only thing I really haven't focused on much is confidence.

Thanks

I had zero fumbles all last season, and have already recorded two this season. The funny part is that the other HB hasn't fumbled yet, and my carrying is about 10 points higher than his. They must have tweaked the algos.

Don't train carrying. Just throw 2 or more points into the Cover Up ability.

Strength helps hold on to the ball as well. My power HB has not fumbled yet.

HBs have been really dominant so they may have edited it to help out defenses with a higher fumble chance

They nerfed carrying so boost it up for turnover the ball.

I don't think this is the case anymore. I have over 60 Strength and it doesn't seem to matter.

Strength does play a part, but you still need some points into carrying itself & the cover up ability..

I got all that too. I think we all need to stop guessing and just be OK with the fact a lot of it is luck, and we'll never know the true secrets. Sort of like Sasquatch.

Two more fumbles today. Now I have the same number of fumbles this season as I had in the two previous seasons combined...and my carrying is better now than it ever was in those seasons. I'm sure some of it has to do with the fact that the defenders are getting better too, and are therefore more likely to cause fumbles. I'll be putting points into the "cover up" SA when I level up.

I'll be loading up on cover up too. We'll see if it helps.
