After he coughed up the ball four times in four games, Buffalo Bills running back Travis Henry will make a few minor adjustments in an effort to stop fumbling. For starters, he might want to stop trying so darned hard.

Henry figures two fumbles happened because he was trying to squeeze out extra yardage after being stopped near the line of scrimmage. Both times, against the Denver Broncos and Chicago Bears, his fumbles were returned for touchdowns.

he needs to hold onto it with both hands tightly when he's about to make contact with another player, and until he gets past the line of scrimmage. You can run with both hands covering up the ball.

I sure hope he dosen't, getting those extra yards when he gets stuffed is what sets him apart from our other backs like bryson, and morris.

This will definatley be a good thing for opposing teams...what this actually means is there will be no such thing as a running game in buffalo this season....He will defenitly concentrated more on holding on to the ball than picking up yards.....the running game is offically non-exsitent anymore.:D
