Just a guess, I'm no pro. But think about it... how much light are those lower leaves getting? In all of your pictures they appear to be in heavy shade. As long as the top/side leaves are heavy and thick then you're good to go, those lower leaves aren't going to do much. Don't peel them off though, the plant can still draw nutrients from them till they're completely dead.

Yeah they just look like they arent getting alot of sun and the plants using what it can from the leaves before it drops them. When I have leaves like that I usually lift slightly or give them a slight tug, and if it comes of, its ready, if not let them go a little longer.

ditto. good advice. fan leaves in heavily shaded area will fall off naturally after all nutrients and chlorophyll has been moved elsewhere.
