re: Mark Ingram averaged 5.1 YPC last season, am I missing something?

MI in a nutshell with fans is the type of RB that when he runs for 125 yards and 2 TDs, we celebrate him for one day. When he fumbles in the first quarter of a preseason game, fans never forget and despise him for years.

He's not elite, and won't be in our offense b/c of limited touches. In our O, he is a solid to good RB. We haven't truly had an elite RB since Duece, and even he wouldn't have been elite in our O today as much as people think he would in his prime. RBs like MI need 20 plus carries a game to show their full potential. That's not gonna happen with any RB in a SP offense, or at least, very seldom. And as much as I liked Pierre Thomas, he wasn't elite either.
