Please no BS sympathy for him, he sux. Sick of his tenure hear- not a speed back/not a power back (insert 4th and 1 failures here)/not a feature back... There's a reason we don't screen to him like we did with PThomas/Bush/Sproles.

Sorry, this is the first year we haven't had a stable and I'm tired of him as a feature back.

Is that how we've used him this year?

What makes this year different from last year?

And there is a reason they weren't used every down. BTW:
quote:

In 12 games, Ingram saw 57 targets, catching 50 for 405 yards. That was good enough for eighth among running backs in catches and 10th in yards, despite only playing three quarters of the season.


/not a power back (insert 4th and 1 failures here)/

quote:

his 59.4 elusive rating was seventh in the NFL among qualifying backs, and his 2.9 yards after contact per attempt was the fifth-highest mark in the league.

Found the problem, sorry he played at Bama

Im really tired. Tired of ill thought out MI bashing threads.
He's not a dynamic RB. He's solid(which you can't say for many RB's) in all phases of a RB's role. Has a good YPC avg.
He's trust worthy. Again a needed trait.
I too would like a burner with some wiggle that can block, pass catch and never screw up the game plan. Once again they don't grow on trees.
I tell you what. You go on record and pick one for the draft and see how you do. No first round picks.

If you want to be tired of something be tired of the lack of emphasis in the rushing game. Out of 32 teams
we are 31st in rushing attempts. The only team close to
this is Jacksonville. Our longest rush from scrimmage is 17yds. BTW That was by Ingram. No team is even close to that. Let that sink in. That is pathetic. With a poor defense no hint of trying to establish a run game you will only get so far. Sorry this is coaching and game prep and planning. It's not on Ingram. He hasn't carried the ball enough to be criticized.

The easiest way to tell if a Saints fan knows absolutely nothing about the team or the sport is to ask them what they think of Mark Ingram. If it is negative I don't bother listening to anything they have to say.

The dude just isn't that good.

When was the last time he broke one for a huge gain?

They will defend Mark until he's off the team. I like the guy, but he's average at best. There's no special thing he does well, and no physical attribute that stands out. Many on here want to like him because he's a Saint. To be honest, that's the only reason I root for him during the games, but I rather see someone in the backfield with more speed/vision.

Ingram is the epitome of a C- type of player

Doing just enough to keep himself on the team

All of those guys, and I believe Ivory, were on the roster when we traded a first round and second round pick for Ingram. A running back. Loomising.

He's an NFL back. Not a good one, not a bad one. With that being said, he's good enough for our offensive style. A real stud would be cool, but not needed.

Anyone who tries to use stats to show Ingram is good hasnt watched him play. Hes fricking soft with no speed. A great combo for a RB...
