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.

The entire team has not struggled to run the last 3 weeks. If you compare the 2 guys who got the most of Ingram's carries you will see where the problem lies, and the hope that it could be corrected soon.

3 games
PT- 34 carries 65 yards (1.9 avg)
KR 19 carries 84 yards (4.4 avg)

Chicago was a slight disappointment for KR to not get more carries, but it was PT's homecoming, and Sean wanted ball security.

Numbers don't lie, garbage time or not.

The story with MI going forward, is that KR should continue to get more carries and an expanded role on this team. MI should let his toe heal and not play unless KR is just not getting it done or injury to any of the 3.

I don't give much of a shite about Ingram, but the line is not playing worse than it did the first two weeks of the season. We have problems, but they've been there since the beginning.
