... now that's just silly, but if you want to get even more techincaller:

First, Reggie is not a QB. He was asked by his coach to throw a pass into the red zone and he did it. His coach admitted he made a bad call.

Second, Deuce had the fortune to have teammates recover his fumbles in 2 occasions. Probably it has to do with the plays called for each: while Deuce runs in traffic and there are usually teammates around him, they try to give Reggie the ball in space, so if he fumbles, chances are there are not going to be many teammates around him to make a play on the ball.

But the fact remains, Deuce has fumbled the ball 3 times and Reggie only 2, and if espn.com is correct, both have touched the ball 144 times each from scrimmage.
