you are probably right on that.
They do have it isolate to the last 6" before he hits the ground as the time when he fumbles and he has worked specifically on that. They think its a technique issue.
I think the bigger reason they didnt want to give him the ball down the stretch is because they are trying to limit his workload to 10-12 touches per game and recognize his size as a reason that has to be closely monitored.
Who knows though

then the same can be said about Charles last year, too.
Through 3 games, him averaging such a high number is impressive.
You not wanting to post his ranking on PFF as a running back tells me that he is probably ranked in the top 5...
