I don't hate him, but I don't think he fits this offense.

Amos, I don't hate the kid or anything, I know he is working his arse off, and it really is not his fault in my opinion. He just doesn't fit our system or our scheme. We should have never drafted him in the first place.

It is a win-win in my opinion to hopefully let him have a really good game next week and then trade him if not before. He gets a better shot and we get something we need.

Of course, this is going to require someone in the Organization admit they made a mistake. Which is obvious, but not likely to happen.

So, you think this guy improves this team over the other players on this team at his position?

how much more do you need to see before you realize he just doesn't fit this offense?



I think he sucks.

Oldsouth, keep it professional man!

"He sucks as a player in our system."

Is a decent guy by all accounts.

I am on the don't trade MI train. He had a bad game, but this is only 1/16. For this team to be successful we will need him at some point. Sproles is awesome, but we don't want him taking a pounding like an every down back. Everyone agrees that PT is the shite, but do we want to put the entire running game on his back?

I'm sure MI was just as frustrated by the game yesterday. We just started the season off with a victory over our division rival. Everyone in our division lost. We are all alone in first place and the big problem is the 3rd RB in our RB rotation. Did his 6 runs cause that game to come down to the wire?

Ingram looked pretty bad in preseason also.

But let's blame the O line.

This. He got bottled up by a team we play twice a year. It only took 60 minutes for people to go from "INGRAM!!!!" to "trade him," yet again.

After defnding him since he was drafted, it's time to move on from him. Whether we trade him or release him, I'm okay with either.

He doesn't have good vision. He can never find the holes that PT and Sproles find. He isn't strong enough, always going down at the slightest bit of contact. He's also bouncing everything to the outside where he doesn't have the speed to make the edge. It didn't work for Reggie Bush, it sure as hell won't work for Ingram.
