RB Mark Ingram Not Afraid of Competing Against Adrian Peterson
Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports
On Sunday, Saints RB Mark Ingram expressed how he's not afraid of competing for playing time against one of the greatest backs of all time, New Orleans newly required RB Adrian Peterson...
quote:

“It doesn’t matter who’s in the backfield with me, who I’m competing with, I’m always going to give my 100 percent all,” Ingram said, per Mike Triplett of ESPN.com. “I respect him and everything he’s done. He’s still a great player; he’s overcome a lot of adversity. But at the end of the day, I’m going to compete, no matter who it is. Not afraid of competition, no matter how high on the totem pole they are. I’m always going to compete, I’m always going to give my best.”

“We help each other,” Ingram explained. “He’s new to the system, so I can help him with some play calls and small nuances within the offense. And he’s an elite runner, one of the best that we’ve seen in this game. So just to see how he runs, how he practices, makes us all better.”
I like hearing that.

He says that, but he will have one of his toddler tantrums by week three when AP starts to pass him up.

He has competed at the highest level in college and succeeded .. this is no different , he will give his all and see where the chips fall and go from there ... It's not like Shaun Peyton gonna all of a sudden start the ground and pound though . Interested in seeing how the carries get broke up ....
