Fumble Bug!!!

[playball335]

3 times in 1 game I rushed the opposing quaterback and hit him before he threw the ball. "Fumble" is displayed and the ball drops to the ground. Ok so far, until the next down. In all 3 cases it was third down, however the fumbling team was given the ball first and ten at the spot where they fumbled it.

I was really upset the final time it happened as it was 3rd and 16 on my opponents 5yl, with time running out and me being down by 6!!!

Looks like this is being worked on per the thread below:

It's been happening with my latest build as well.  Can't wait for this fix!

Also seen it a few times playing cpu vs cpu with latest build .Even stranger thing i`ve seen qb takes snap and next thing i see the ball is on ground 10 to 15 yards away from QB GOING TOWARDS SIDELINE .At time he was`nt pitching it or passing . Screen says fumble then it goes next play and first down .

Not sure if in my case its a result of a fumble bug, but i notice in a couple of teams in my league a defense lineman has a passing stats.
