re: Pierre Thomas: 4 carries, 1 yard

quote:

---

1 carry was for 26 yards up by 34-0 in the 4th quarter.

Leaving him 29 carries for 64 yards. Same game, he had a 31 yard run when they were up 24-0 in the 3rd. 2 meaningless carries that day 57 yards. that like half his yards that year or what.

Does average now mean something new? You get to just remove runs now?

Take a look at these Ingam stats then

2012
Final Margin 0-7pts 69 carries 218 yds 3.2 ypc
Final Margin 8-14pts 38 carries 108 yds 2.8 ypc
Final Margin 15+ 49 carries 276 yds 5.6 ypc

2011
Final Margin 0-7pts 35 carries 103 yds 2.9ypc
Final Margin 8-14pts 46 carries 149 yds 3.2 ypc
Final Margin 15+ 41 carries 222 yards 5.4ypc

Seems like he gets plenty of time running against worn out defenses.

With that in mind then, can we agree that the KR hype is way out of line?

KR hype is only relative due to Ingram's suckage. It's definitely not out of line.

KR averages 1.4 yards when not in garbage time. Yea, it's out of line.

well we are discussing numbers getting padded correct. This is how padding happens. You wanted to talk padding, now you don't.

Apples and oranges. The 5.0 per carry in blowouts doesn't mean that all the runs were in garbage time. Maybe he had a 30 yard run in the 2nd quarter that contributed to the blowout.

quote:

---

oh yeah, ingram developed magical running powers up by 30 points in a game.

---

So no long runs in the first 3 quarters? You really trying to claim that?

He had longs of 16, 23, 31, and 26 respectively for each quarter. Another swing and a miss Chad.

The only hype behind Robinson is he looks like a more decisive, quicker, and harder to tackle guy than Ingram.

And just to put a little more perspective on Ingram's 2012 season, there were 5 games where the final margin was 15+.

So 31% of the games last year was blowout, in those games Ingram got right at 31% of his carries for the year, but those carries resulted in 45% of his total yards. So a little under half his yards came in blowouts last year.

Except his stats suck outside of clean up time.

Do that to KR if you're going to try to go there.

Didn't i just fricking tell you he had a 31 yard carry in the 3rd quarter? you are dumb bro.

---

You said only when we were up 30. How often has that happened outside the end of 3rd/4th quarter?

quote:

---

for a year? what the frick is this?

---

Last year he had a long of 16 in the 1st, a long of 23 in the 2nd, a long of 31 in the 3rd, and a long of 26 in the 4th. Do I need to also tell you how to breathe?

quote:

Yes, along with all the other runningbacks on the team. That doesn't mean you can't judge and compare the abilities between 2 backs.

---

And I can disagree with you based on actual production.
