Not sure either but I do know Maurice Mann was mannnnnn in preseason a few years back.oldhawkfan":2u8u6ofv said:
Late fumble officially credited to Wilson for a reason.
- Thread starter vin.couve12
- Start date
Imo the fault is entirely on Carson.
He didn't secure the football the defender did not contact him during the exchange..
Doesn't mean we should bench him but he is directly responsible for 14 of the 26 points that Pitts scored.

Carson has to be on thin ice. You can't turn the ball over. He go a short benching. If he can't hang on to the ball over the next few weeks he will see his carries diminish substantially. Penny and Prosis have plenty of talent. I can image is this was BB and the Patriots he'd be on the bench. I love CC and hope this is a fluke.

Strange play in general. Defender blew it up. But the handoff looked a little high AND Carson needs to look that ball in and make sure to secure it first. Kind of a spread of blame on the play. Unfortunate because they really could have just ran it 3 times and made Pitts use their timeouts. Would have had very little time to get two scores. Oh well, made for a fun final drive and not letting them so much as touch the ball at the end. Loved that Pete went for it on 4th down.

Backs don't look handoffs in they grab the ball where is it suppose to be in their belly, they are looking at the hole they are suppose to hit to make a cut a half second after the hand off or which side of the lead blocker they will cut on.

In the end, I am strangely pleased that the fumble occurred. The way we closed it out felt like a confidence booster.

A chance to display our resilience? Yeah, I feel a little of that.
But that could have been achieved after the first fumble, too.

Oooh ya don't get to move the goalposts, mate. You asked for one person, and one person was provided.hawksfansinceday1":yheprj9z said:Perhaps I should've said "people with a clue".Seymour":yheprj9z said:
Don't get me wrong, I don't want Penny starting at this point, and I love the way Carson runs. I'm just saying that moving the goalposts is an informal logical fallacy, and false logic is the enemy of reasoned discussion.

And the defender blowing up that play had just as much to do with the fumble. But yeah, the delivery looked a little high. But hey, that would give those who like to find the negative, in a VERY good game by Wilson something to complain about :stirthepot:

OK, I get what you’re saying but wouldn’t be nice to have had them score twice more and made it a certainty early.?
Carson has historically had a fumbling problem, he needs to work with the coaches to eliminate it so that problem doesn’t cost the team dearly at a later point in the season. Whether it was RW or Carson’s blame is nothing to concern oneself about, understanding how to prevent it certainly is something that needs to be worked upon. Carson certainly ran hard in that last 4 minute series and certainly made up for the fumble even if it may not have been all on him.
