Some interesting turn over stats.

The Saints finished in a 4 way tie for 3rd inforced fumbles at 20. Only 7 of which were recovered by us. By contrast Cincinnati recovered 12, Mn and SF recovered 15. NE forced 10 and recovered 11. (That's what it says. Don't ask me.)

Another record we set that nobody is talking about is least fumbles in a season. We only fumbled 6 times all year!! But we lost 5.

We intercepted a whopping 9 passes this year. In the believe it or not dept there were two teams with less. Mn and In only had 8. Pat Rbinson had 4 and no other player had more than 1. But get this, not one safety had an int. That's appalling! Has this ever happened before. Talk about needing to step it up! Malcom Jenkins should hide his face in shame. Harper you expect, we've known for years that he has zero ball skills but Jenkins is supposed be a future star FS. And it's not just the starters I'm talking about either. None of the back ups came up with the ball this year. Scott freaking Shanle had more ints than that whole unit!

Only one other team made the play offs with a negative turn over ratio. (Pitt with -13)
