Radio said bush will probably start Sunday. The injury wasn't serious

Injury prone, yet to establish himself in year 2, and has not shown that extra effort you need from a power back

To me he hasn't had the same burst he had his heisman year at bama.

Its sad to be a NFL player these days.

Now I have to go back to my 55hr a week job in the warehouse.

Please tell MI I'm thinking 'bout him all day.

"He's the kind of RB that you need to keep giving the ball too. He's a rhythm runner. Keep giving him the ball and he'll start to gain chunks of yards."

Rhythm runner is an old cliche that makes little sense. You get the ball handed to you, you run with it, preferrably through the same holes Pierre Thomas can see.

It's just so obvious what were doing with Ingram in the game and I think that's a main problem because when you compare the blocking Ingram gets to Pierre/Sproles it's not even close

I tend to agree with this. The playcalling with Ingram in has been pretty unimaginative. Its like the defense goes "Oh Look, Marks in. Get ready for that iso up the middle."

start splitting up the screen with Sproles and Ingram.

More deep passes to Moore and Colston too.

Not sure if him, the line or scheme is the problem. Positive is when we trade/release him, he'll have less than 350 career carries on him.

I'm probably in the minority, but I think the jury is still out on Ingram.

Well, he's certainly not a bust.
I get we're angry at the course of events of this season, but blaming Ingram is a weird tactic.

That's what people said about Reggie Bush. Now look at what he's doing now that he's on another team. I'm starting to think our offense just doesn't cater to certain RBs.

Ingram hasn't showed a lot but, our offensive line don't bock werth a shite for a running back. They don't block werth a shite for the quarter back either.

I thought he had a fine rookie season minus the injury, and this season without our main offensive guru and a terrible O-line idk.

I'm not ready to label him a bust till at the least the end of next season, everyone's too quick to proclaim someone as a bust or the next great thing

Ingram has disappointed.

And it almost time to admit that he is a bust.

I would trade him if possible

Yeah, its time to admit a first round draft pick is a bust 3 games into his 2nd year. For sure.

Jesus Christ man.

Give 1st Round draft picks 3 years. Almost always. It is ridiculous to do otherwise. Players develop.

Everybody knows he's a good back but the saints are not using him well. All he's doing is given the others a rest

Gumps still want to blame the saints.


of course they do.

Dude sucks. Everyone knew he was gonna be a bust when he was drafted except saints and gumps.


everyone huh?

I'm sure you weren't biased in your assestment

First of all, we really haven't run the ball very much. Only Oakland and Tennessee have fewer rushing attempts as a team (55, 45). The Saints do avearge 5.0 YPC but that is definitely thanks in most part to Pierre Thomas. Sproles hasn't really carried the ball that much either.

I'm not gonna sit here and shite on Ingram though. He already gets enough hate around here. I mean since people bitched about him when we were winning last year, its not surprising the shite storm he's received now that we are on a losing streak

oh, by the way, Auburn is doing really well. I like what they're doing up there on the Plains

to the OP: I've seen better bait, but I was bored.
