1. Turnovers aren’t a sexy topic, but it is as meaningful a topic as there is in football. Consider this: Since 2006, the New Orleans Saints are 34-1 when they don’t commit a turnover. In very next game, the Saints have committed an average of 1.6 turnovers and have a 15-19 record to show for it. Of course, they aren’t trying to turn it over in the following game and protecting the football isn’t as simple as wishing it so (opposing defenses get paid to make stops and force turnovers, as much as offensive players get paid to hold on to the ball and to score).
