Patience for Ryan Mathews’ Fumbling Is Not Infinite, and Other AFC West News

San Diego Chargers running back Ryan Mathews had a key fumble in the red zone last weekend, and the organization may be growing frustrated with his struggles holding onto the ball.

Fumbling has been a problem for Mathews even more so than injuries. In 27 career games, he has fumbled 11 times, which is a fumble in approximately 41 percent of his games played. To put that in perspective, Mathews has played in 77 percent of the Chargers' games since 2010.

Injuries are part of the game, but the vast majority of fumbles are avoidable.
