I can't wait to see Ingbum's pouty face on the sideline when AD and AK inevitably start getting all the in game reps

Deuce, Ricky Williams, George Rodgers, Pierre Thomas, Reggie Bush, Dalton Hilliard were all better then Ingram. He is not even in the same league of Deuce, Williams, and Rodgers.I would put Ingram below Chuck Muncie and Rueben Mayes because both of these guys were better at their peak compared to Ingram and above Maria Bates and Wayne Wilson, Tony Galbreath. I would rank him 9th Saints All time RB.

I would say he's #9 at best. Melvin Gordon is right there with him.



Is Ingram even the best RB on the roster?

I have no earthly clue why any 'fan' of a team would enjoy such a thing



Maybe you are just a miserable POS

Stop being an Ingram fanboy and watch a little football outside of the 2013-current Saints. Ingram is a decent to average NFL running back. Nothing wrong with that. People who think he could even be considered as the Saints all time best RB probably have only only started watching football for the past 3 years. Most people that have followed the Saints over the years would rank him anywhere from 6-10 among the Saints all time RB's.

Okay, sure

Maybe you should watch 2014-current Saints instead of just 2011-2013 considering that's how you've continued to "rate him"

At the moment, he's around 5. If he plays like he did the last 3 years, he'd easily be #1 by that time.

Of the top 10 RBs in attempts:
4th in Attempts
3rd in Yards
2nd in YPC
3rd in Rushing TDs
3rd in Longest Rush
9th in Fumbles

Todd Gurley and Marshawn Lynch should be in there ranked ahead of Ingram.

Lynch didn't play well his last year with the Seahawks and is 31 years old.

I'm so confused. You want me to judge him on how he performed in the beginning of his career as opposed to the how he is performing now? He was a top 10 back last year and a top 15 back the year before statistically speaking. This isn't an opinion. It's fact. Look at the stats. He produces. He is not performing like an average back.

Either one. Lets throw out his first 3 years when he was not so good. For this last 3 years he was ranked 14th, 19th, and 11th in rushing yards for those years. His average ranking for those 3 prime years would be 14.66. If I used his first 3 years and looked at him as a whole he is below average. So for his career he has been below average, if I threw away his first 3 years and just looked at him for the last 3 he has been average. If he has another productive 1,000 yard rushing year I would then say he is slightly above average RB. I don't see how this is so irrational. He is a running back that has only reached 1,000 yards once in 6 years. Has only come close one other time. If there are 32 starting Running backs, those who are ranked 14,15,16,17,18 to me are considered average running backs.

I'm going to make this real simple.

Name me a back that for the past 3 seasons, has had 150 carries or more each year that has amassed a better yards per carry than Mark Ingram. I haven't found one yet...
