Bash Fairley thread turned into a bash Ingram thread.

The answer to the OP has to be Gabbert. Fairley and Ingram may come in right behind him but I think he has 5 TD's and 5 TO's on the season and averaging like 150 yards per game. Plus I think he was taken ahead of the other 2.

I forgot Gabbert existed for the purposes of this thread. I'd say that's our winner.

Tate (53rd overall) and Ridley (78th overall) are better than Ingram.
My uncle was calling Ingram "2 Yard" at the saints game last night.

the best run Ive seen from Ingram this year was when he recovered Brees's fumble this week.
there was some really talented players in that draft looking back on it. JJ Watt is a baller. plus, Cam, Julio, Peterson, Von Miller, Marcel Dareus. ponder and locker are decent qbs.
pretty solid looking draft class

AJ green, Aldon smith, Andy Dalton
Really solid class. Probably premature to call anyone a bust in their second year though

through 2 seasons he's totaled: 18 tackles 2 sacks
he also has been arrested twice.
Ingram should be riding our bench right now. Chris Ivory actually runs with some heart. Ingram still looks too tentative out there. Pierre Thomas and Darren Sproles are far more effective than Ingram in both running and catching the ball out of the backfield. I like Ingram but it seems like he just doesn't fit in with what the Saints do best.

Pass blocking and running routes?

he did alright last year. I thought he was starting to get into a groove just before his injury.
If he's in the game, the other team knows its gonna be a run. I guess every once in a while me may fake it to him and try to hit a deep pass. We really don't use him in the screen game either. I wouldn't count on the creative play calling this year from the Saints either. I know the staff is trying to do their best but any time you lose the head coach, it obviously makes a difference. Especially a guy who is the best play caller in the game.
I guess Roger Goodell is happy

its fun watching thomas run. He is a slippery runner and extremely good at absorbing hits and just getting by them
Yeah his 9 carries for 30 yards was surreal.

Fairly is human filth. Karma will handle him and seems to be busy as we speak.

and he had 40 more yards receiving
Ingram just hasn't found his way in this offense yet. Pierre Thomas was an undrafted RB out of Illinois. He did far more damage earlier in his career than Ingram has. Hell, in his first start, he had over 100 yards rushing and 100 yards receiving against the Bears. The Saints have much better depth at RB on the team now and so that will cut into Ingram's production. But he has to make things happen more when his number is called. He looks tentative like he did in his first few games as a rookie.

5 TD's and 5 TO's
Still better than Matt Cassel. Would take Gabbert in KC

What has Marcel Dareus done besides be on a defense that just gave up over 1200 yards in the last 2 weeks?

Ingram never was that good. Just thrived on a great team. He did not deserve the heisman when he got it....
Everyone could see it.

Yeah the Cartman looking fatass sucks,and it couldn't have happened to a better pos.
As for Ingram,no running back is Gunna thrive in that system.
