Whenever I haven't paid particular attention to which RB has been inserted, and the runner drags his tacklers and gains yards after contact that make you go "whoa"... it's inevitably number 23, and not 22.

You're free to think Ingram is suddenly some kind of great and improved runner, but NFL history is littered with 100 yard games from marginal running backs. I would love to eat my words by the end of the season, but I don't think I will have to.

Even if you had to eat your words, I don't think you will. Your arrogance and 55 years of watching football won't let you.

No one said he is a great rb but way to put words in our mouths. He showed great explosion through the hole and improved vision. He was never a guy that is going to break 70 yard td runs so not sure why you were expecting that. He had a good game and hopefully will continue to show improvement but no one is saying he's going to turn into a pro bowler

Ingram had the one of the fastest first 10 yard splits when coming out as a rookie. He never did and was brought here to be a game breaker. The explosiveness we saw last night, getting to the second level, is what we brought him here to do. We saw a glimpse of what we thought we had when drafting him. Stop hating and appreciate this guys effort.

I'm going to leave this here.

from PFF and blues for posting it on the other thread:

"Ingram forced seven missed tackles on his way to 145 yards on 14 carries, including a touchdown"
