So their performance in home fumbles lost is beyond great. It is historic. They fumble so much less at home than any other outdoor team in the league it isn't funny. It is statistically a near impossibility that this is just some sort of "numbers glitch". Guess what a more deflated ball leads to?

Fewer fumbles.

What if their use of these type of balls leads to two extra home wins this year than they would have otherwise had? What if that gives the Steelers home field and a one week bye......giving Leveon Bell an extra week to rest and maybe get healthy? I don't understand anyone who says this is meaningless.
