Has a qb ever fumbled this much before over 3 games?

Incorrect.  This team is talented enough to win it all with an average QB that knows how to manage the game and not turn the ball over.  If he can get over his fumblitis, there is nothing stopping this team from competing in January.  Case in point:  Nick Foles

Allen is going to need to make more plays if we are going to make a run at the postseason.

Your case in point is my point. Kyle Allen is no Nick Foles. He's doing a good job but he's starting to get figured out. Like most backups, the more he plays the worse he looks. That's not a knock on the guy. He's a UDFA backup. He's playing his ass off as best he can.

To put this rate of fumbling in perspective, Kerry Collins and Dante Culpepper are tied for the single record with 23. Kyle Allen is on pace to match that in about 8 games.

Culpepper, my word...

I mean, at least Allen's fumbles are mostly the result of hits. Culpeper could have nobody within three yards of him and just plain drop it.

I also remember how we all used to love watching Aaron Brooks "empty hand" several passes a year. Those weren't as frequent as Culpeper's fumbles, but damn they were funny to see.

The year Nick Foles won the Superbowl he put up similar passing numbers to what Allen is putting up now.  The Eagles team was so stacked, his only job was not to make a mistake and it worked.  This team, when healthy, is stacked.
