Randy Fichtner On Drops, Fumbles: ‘I Wouldn’t Be As Gray If We Just Protect The Ball In All These Games’

If there is one single thing, outside of bringing Ben Roethlisberger back from his injury, that is capable of dramatically changing the quality of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense right now, it would be in improving the ball security of the position players. Whether through fumbles or drops, some of which have led to interceptions, there are plays that are being left on the field because people are just not securing the football well enough.

While this has been an ongoing issue, Sunday night’s game really put it under the magnifying glass, as they had about six or so dropped passes and put the ball on the ground four other times due to fumbles.
