The Top 10 Individual Turnover-Forcing Seasons in NFL History

If you've watched a lot of professional football in the last 15 years, you know that Charles Tillman is known for punching footballs out of the unsuspecting arms of opponents. In fact, his 44 forced fumbles in 13 seasons is nearly double the next-closest defensive back (Charles Woodson, 23) over that span.

So this should come as no surprise. In 2012 -- his lone All-Pro season -- "Peanut" Tillman forced 10 fumbles, recovered 2 and tallied 3 picks in 16 games with the Bears. "Just three picks? Some corner." you might say. Well, all three of those interceptions resulted in six points. Talk about an inefficient use of turnovers.

On the back of Tillman's turnovers production, the Chicago defense finished the year ranked second in fumbles recoevered and first in interceptions.
