Turnovers have been exceptionally bad this season. Usually we are good enough to play through some of the aggressive turnovers. But when ball carriers start fumbling or receivers tip balls in the air then it exacerbates the entire thing.
For example the Raiders game, Mahomes threw 2 balls that were picks and were dropped. One would have taken away a TD. That's fine overall except Hughes fumbled on a punt return.
Had those passes not been dropped and Hughes fumbles now we are talking about another 3 turnover game.
So I think we all know with Patrick we are going to live with some turnovers and generally can power through them. It's the other turnovers like fumbles piled on top of aggression turnovers that bite our ass.
