I'll admit, I was the biggest advocate of calling for "Protect the Ball", but now that i'm actually 10 games deep in my dynasty, i've come to realize that i'm AVERAGING 4 turnovers a game.

I'm losing the ball during sacks, running the option and having it knocked loose, running with my FB, running with my HB. It's starting to be the never ending story line in my storybuilder.

It's really starting to get ridiculous, that coupled with the INT's i bring on myself.

I can hardly pull out wins anymore.

Are you guys still seeing quite a bit of this?

not really and i run the ball quite a bit.Im 4yrs into my dynasty.Are you game planning big runs?I turn the ball over 2-3 times a game and fumble maybe once sometimes twice.Then again i dont run the option either

I have played roughly 25 games and run the ball a ton (30+ times a game). Usually I have 0-2 fumbles unless I just screw up on option plays, which is all on me. I've never had a game with the crazy amount of fumbles people on here complain about. And I never cover up, either. Basically I just try not to truck too much, I run out of bounds when possible, and try not to get sacked.

I'm 4 games into a USF dynasty on Heisman and I'm struggling to remember if I've fumbled at all. The CPU, on the other hand, fumbles 2-3 times a game. Even Florida coughed the ball up a couple of times and they spanked me. So the only issue I'm seeing is a disparity between CPU and human fumbles.

I'm 9 games in my Buckeyes dynasty and like Ramminyou I honestly don't recall any fumbles. I'm sure I've had some but they are so rare I don't recall them, let alone them being an issue.

I've only fumbled 8-10 times all season(12 games in so far). there were a couple of games that I fumble 3 times in the game, but other games where I had no turnovers at all.

Thanks for the input everyone.

Wow, my Husker team is really starting to fall apart!

I don't remember these fumbles early on, but once i've started having issues at the QB position everything is starting to fall apart...

I had a game on online where My opponent and I fumble about 10 times all together. But then I started to hold down the R1 button. And I've been only fumbling once a game now.
