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.
