Looks like 3 fumbles while Rushing and 3 fumbles while receiving.....based on the fact that he has roughly 3 times as many receptions as carries, you are correct - he has fumbled on a higher percentage of rushes than catches. Kind of logical really when you think about it though, given how there are more hands in on tackles and such while rushing. Interesting nevertheless

And Exile no, he did NOT sit out last game with a hammy, it was his first game on the active roster and he played the entire game. 1 reception and 1 kick returned. He was however a bigger factor than appears though because of what I mentioned in my previous post....he pulled coverage towards him allowing other Seahawks receivers to get open.

ScottF – That’s EXACTLY why I gave you guys a ratio of fumbles to touches – Statistically he probably would NOT have that different of a ratio if he had missed less time.

This guy could be a problem. He seems to always fall forward for a positive gain even with defenders on his back.

Beast mode is right.

Re: Percy Harvin

Actually, Seahawks fans should be hoping that the Saints defense doesn't take the "top off" of Percy Harvin, not the other way 'round. Harvin has not played against a stout physical defense in a playoff-level game for quite some time. Are Seattle fans confident, given his history, that he be able to take the punishment that is in store for him, let alone make a run into the playoffs...the Saints are not the same thing defensively as the 2-8 Vikings....if Harvin (or any receiver) exposes himself, or Wilson makes an errant throw, the Saints WILL take the (legal) shot at him:


Who knows....A few friendly introductions to Malcolm Jenkins, Rafael Bush, or Kenny Vaccaro, may make Percy Harvin decide that being able to walk after his football career, is worth more to him than the Seahawks precious Monday night win streak at the C-Link. When I think of Percy Harvin's lengthy history of ankle, hip, shoulder, leg and migraine issues, it does not inspire much confidence in me, that he is a tough guy, or able to play through pain. And his reliability in the Seahawks offense is... completely untested, and that's putting it politely.

Thinking also of kick returns, because that is part of Harvin's specialty....I am remembering how Cowboys special teams star and receiver Dwayne Harris left the game against the Saints with neck and shoulder injuries, sustained on a kick return, and he was not a real factor in the rest of the game, beyond the first quarter. At the time Dallas was #2 in the NFL in kick returns.
