Offensive: Rushing · Fumbles
What Fumbles is
Fumbles by ball carriers on running plays, recovered or not. Forcing a fumble is a skill; recovering one is mostly luck, so the gross count is the part a team actually controls.
Lower is better. It is shown per game, so a team's number does not depend on games played. Source: P.
