Sproles has always been a better swing pass and catching guy than inside tackles/taking hand offs behind LOS type player.

Was All-World Returner at KSU.

Him and McCoy are nasty in that offense
It's the perfect offense for Sproles, and McCoy is just a beast

He's still an RB though. Just great out of the backfield.

I know he's a running back dude, do you take everything literal?

You are the dude who corrected the OP. Why wouldn't that be taken literally?

All corners suck if you don't put pressure on the QB.
Saints could definitely use him at DE. Big upgrade over Trindon Holliday.

Yea from the context of his post it seemed like he was being serious.

remember a times picayune writer saying they wouldn't miss Sproles. How's that working out now? ?


I love sproles, but I'd rather those passes go to cooks, graham, colston, sproles, and PT

We were too predictable at the end with him. We won't miss him but he's still a good player

I was referring to Ingram being hurt and the fact that a pass heavy offense fits him so well

Is Ingram not hurt?


So you think sproles would get Ingram's carries?

PT and Khiry can carry that load for the next 3 games

I thought it was pretty clear I was being facetious, but then again I usually talk to smart people

And those guys will barely touch the ball. At least Sproles is a legit receiving threat

I think you underestimate how good of a receiving back PT is. He's actually a running threat too

You have no idea what you're talking about.

PT had 77 receptions last year. He's a much better screen back

In November, the Eagles' grass field will be shite and he will be tired. Then we'll see. If he does this for 16 weeks, of course the Saints will miss him


So he's only good long term in a dome, just like the Saints. Got it.
