What makes you think the Giants want him? They just picked up Bradshaw. I say give him away or take him out back and shoot him. NVM save the bullet, just give him away.

Re: Ingram- What do we do with him?

Work on his blocking and leave him back there to protect the blindside. It's not like he's doing anything else.

Deactivate him and use the spot for someone else on game day. Anybody.

Folks, we have a winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Ingram- What do we do with him?

Then why do we keep doing it? Payton had to see this going on last season yet it continues.

What I'm hoping for is that adjustments will be made next week. Have him block and if nothing is there use him as a dump off. Give him a direct snap...anything but what we have been giving him.

Re: Ingram- What do we do with him?

Can we share the blame with the oline also ? Thomas gives you more inside,but hes no miracle worker either. And Sproles only gives results on screens and pitches to the outside . The run game hasnt been something to write home about in NO for some time now .

A good back is supposed to push the pile and make plays when plays arent there. That is his job and he is not doing it. Some of you guys act like the line is supposed to part like the Red Sea and let him run through it. It doesnt work that way, he has to do his part too. This dude is a ****ing bust here. You can say its the lines faullt all you want but I dont give a **** if hes the best RB to ever play the game, if hes not getting it done here then why should he be here. Why people still defend this guy is beyond me.

P.Thomas-29 yds.
D.Sproles-26 yds.
M.Ingram-20 yds

Yea...your right. Thomas and Sproles are getting it done.

Its the o line's job to push the pile,NOT the RB.

People still "defend" Ingram because we all have a different point of veiw and you need to learn to respect that.

We have very viable options with Kihry and Cadet.

He needs a wake up call, that proverbial slap that sends someone from hysteria to clear thought. He needs to focus.

Re: Ingram- What do we do with him?

I really don't know what to say. I've been one who has been defending him, but I was really disappointed yesterday. I kept thinking....well Ingram is in, oh they are putting 8 or 9 in the box. Then he gets 2 yards.

I noticed that too that the long TD pass to Jimmy was after Drew checked out of an Ingram run the defense was stacking up against.

IDK anymore. It just seems like he's being used as a short yardage back and isn't getting it done. He just not doing well.
