Ingram is horrible. He's all of five foot eight and runs like an obese slug. Comparisons to Emmit Smith are absurd. Emmit didn't get hurt. Ingram already is an injury machine. Emmit also had the benefit of one of the greatest run blocking offensive lines in NFL history. Ingram doesn't and he will never have a 1,000 yard season as a result. Worst signing since Reggie Bush.

reggie did 1000% better than ingram his rookie season. Plus reggie did alot more off the field for the city.

Apparently some players cant either. Thats really neither here nor there.

I would argue that $abun get the most out of a player by being a slave driver. They get to the NFL and folks say they are under performing or lazy but its simply because there is no slave driver at the NFL level.
Its too soon to tell BUT
If i had to chose between trading Ivory or Ingram right now.....I would have to go with ivory. But we wont know about that until next year.

I still don't think anyone expected Sproles to do as well when we traded up to make this pick. I'm not jumping off the Ingram train, I still believe in him. Give him a full off season with the training staff and coaches and let's see how much he can improve next year. In Loomis/Payton I trust.

I wasn't a big fan of the Ingram pick and I still feel the same way. But that is because our undrafted free agents seem to do better. But I have no problem with him cheering for Bama.

me either. he isnt the first NFL player to go to his former college bowl game for Christ sake. Devery was on LSU's sideline, no one is calling for him to be cut or traded today. Get a grip

That is not the reason. It's because we have 4 running backs, and pass 70% each game.

Didn't realize Ingram was a Free Agent and we Signed him. Same for reggie.

I don't know what's worse- that as a grown adult you couldn't aim any higher in your professional life than an xraytech or that you actually seem proud of your "achievement".

By the way, your opinions are shitty and we all want you off this board. Have a great day.

im not reading this thread, but Ingram's numbers arent great as a rookie, i will agree. However he has had a ton of short yardage runs which brings his YPC down.


On another note, he has taken a lot of carries that otherwise could have worn down 1 or 2 of our other backs.

Pierre thomas has stayed fully healthy all year, which he hasnt done in a while.

Chris Ivory was able to stay on the PUP and rehab for the first few weeks of the season.

And Sproles has also been able to remain healthy.


some of this has to do with Ingram taking a pounding in our physical run formations.

I think he has a future here

It doesn't matter the board, you are just terrible.

I agree with LE, so I'm not going to regurgitate what he said. Ingram basically averaged 4 ypc, wait and see how he does next year.
