He don't fumble. He don't bitch and moan when others get more carries. He has great field vision and follows his blockers. He has a Super Bowl ring. Give the man the ball. He was in SuperoverdriveBeast mode tonight. Damn what a game he had.

He's really one of the best backs to ever play for the Saints.

I hope we reward him with a good deal sometime soon.

Ingram is having a solid season, but for the big games (Seattle, Carolina x2, playoffs) PT needs to get a bulk of the backfield plays.

Thomas won the game for us tonight along with the defense. Thomas helped us sustain drives on 2nd and 18 multiple times.

Yep, Ingram is really killing it out there:

41 attempts
220 yards (the vast majority in one game which happens to be his only 100 yard game in 3 years)
1 TD

I'd love for Ingram to get rolling. However, it frustrates me to no end to watch him come in on 3rd & short and goal line situations, when you have a RB on the team who very rarely gets stopped for negative yardage and always seems to make nothing into something.

Not gonna happen, he is about to turn 30. Better enjoy him this year and hopefully next. RB don't last till there 30's or at least long into them.

Pierre is a beast. Yet they keep taking carries away from him to give to Ingram who sucks.

Great saint. Bring someone in to take his job, not a word. Just keeps working. Need 2 yards he will fall for 3. I wish he would get his due. That guy is everything right about the Nfl

I just wish he'd get all of Ingram's touches. Then you'd see a dominant ground game.

He's not taking the workload of the normal 30 year old back though. The Saints use a running back by committee format, which is leaving less wear and tear on him. I could see him having a lot left.

Nothing but good happens when Pierre gets the ball. The 3rd and 17 run for the first down was a thing of beauty.
He runs low and with his head down in traffic while Ingram runs high and hits traffic in an upright position.

The stiff arm on that run was awesome.
