i thought he played pretty damn well today. That 4th down conversion was great.


Eh, it was one yard gained largely by being pulled/pushed by a fullback. Nice play but serviceable backs make nice plays too.

Yeah you're right. It didn't take Darren McFadden any time to adjust to the speed of the game dumbass


It doesn't have Anything to do with speed of the game, it's about going down on first contact.

Jesus, if anybody has a legitimate criticism of a player, you all flip your shite

the problem with this board is you have 20-25 posters who sit here and fap all day and every day to everything saints with no trace of objectivity.

DM had 164 yards in his second game as a pro. Again, RB's usually show you pretty early what they can do.

The going down on first contact is bullshite. His vision has been a bit dissapointing (he had one play today that he could have cut to the outside for a good gain, but he just kept running straight), but they use him almost exclusively when teams expect us to run. No, he hasn't been great, but people basically saying he's an average player because of what he's done through 4 fricking games = retarded.

Saying he isn't a pro-bowler doesn't mean he's below par.

He's still got a lot to learn. So far our running game is better with sproles and thomas. Perhaps if they spent more time in end of game clock management and runs with ingram he may improve.

If that's not a perfect opportunity to let him develop I don;t know what is.

You talking about my Meachum thread?

I'm sorry I expect our first-round draft picks to be able to catch a ball such that it doesn't turn into an interception.

ingram has looked 10X better the last 2 games compared to the first 2

there has been a noticeable upgrade in his running style. he'll get even better as the season continues

i said in the game thread, he's primed for a breakout game pretty soon here
