What I always found amazing what that he not only would cause a fumble but he somehow found a way to come up with the ball and score a touchdown. He did it so many times it wasn’t a fluke.

It was like he was playing a bunch of guys in slow motion. He literally took what he wanted.

He reminded me of a smaller Ed Reed, same playmaking ability and leader.

Exactly. It wasn’t just the forced fumbles. It was the picking them up and taking them to the house. I’ve never seen anything like it. And he did it in his 1st game, on prime time tv, 18-years-old, forcing his way onto the field that had Morris Claiborne and PP7 playing his position. Unreal.

Here are his stats. I am always surprised when I look at them. They are awesome but I swear he had more TDs every time.

In 26 games
Fumbles

FF-11
FR-8
TDs-2

Interceptions
Ints - 4
Int Tds-0

Tackles
Solo - 93
asst - 40
Total - 133
Sacks - 6
TFL - 16

Punt Returns (in 13 games)
Ret - 27
yards - 421
avg - 15.6
TDs - 2


To the OP, objectively the answer is probably no. But the guy was so electric it clouds my thinking.
