Yes because CSP is not forcing a losing game plan that has MI rushing more.

Sproles and PT can both run, catch and be allusive.
2 of the 3 MI hasn't shown he can do. Without him CSP is better able to call a game and SCORE MORE POINTS.

We rushed just as much in the last game without him as the first game with him, and our average rushes per game is basically equal.

CSP is still using the same game plan.

You guys are just so blinded by Ingram hate that you aren't looking at anything objectively.

ETA: Just so you can see the numbers.

Rush Pass
29 35
20 46
24 46
24 39
28 35

You can't look at those numbers and say Ingram's availability has influenced the play calling. There is no correlation for that.

The OL play has regressed all season, but the fact remains that while Ingram was in, he was being outperformed by both PT and Sproles by a significant margin.

The entire team has struggled to run the past 3 weeks, but the OL play was nothing close to this bad in the first two games.

That said, Ingram isn't talentless, but he's not as good as the hype he was given and honestly is a mediocre back at best.

He continually side steps, can't hit holes and can't block. That's been shown.

I think he's just not bringing enough to the table to merit playing time.
