Based on what exactly, you just listing names? The stats say he was easily a top 10 back this year.

Couldn't care less about the stats. You tell me going into next year which of those guys you'd rather have Ingram over. Only two arguable are Forte and Peterson.

Of course you couldn't, blind hatred will do that to you.

With Payton calling the plays, it doesn't really matter. Ingram is good back and would be very successful in more RB friendly systems.

I'd say that's 100% true.

He will be the second best RB in Saints history with one more game next season as far as rushing yards, having played in a committee all his career and lots of injuries his first few seasons. He was 11th in yards on the season despite 15 fewer carries than any other RB in the top 14. Would have had 10+ rush TDs had he been given the ball on the goal line instead of Kuhn/Hightower so often, (look at the Seattle game when he was benched for fumbling 2 times on the season, Hightower failed to score on the goal line 5-6 times I think?), which would have put him in the top 5 in TDs for the season instead of 15th, which is good for 10th among RBs.

The Saints have the best passing offense in the league, so we don't need a guy to run it 290+ times. we need a guy who can pass block and makes the most of his touches, which 10TDs 1362 total yards, 5.4 YPT, do for you.

Haters gonna Hate, but Ingram is a good RB.

You know, would have more touchdowns if he could actually run for tough yards. Too many times, he gets stuffed by smaller players.
