Have ye learned nothing?

RBs and CBs get hurt. A lot.

Let's go Mark. 1,500 yards.

I'm a huge Ingram and Robinson fan, but PT is still the man until you are otherwise informed.

Did Payton say that? Could explain why we seem to have so many injuries. Hopefully most are them are really not bad and if the guys were younger they would still be practicing.
Yea I think we know what to expect from PT He is going to get his carries and his screens.

The headline is a joke.
Is this the same PT that Brees just called the best all-around back in the league? I think I'll go with Brees and call the little layoff preventative

Yeah man, def. I feel like we know what we are going to get with PT, and I say limit him so we have him the whole season and in the playoffs. PT will be fine. Mark looks like he is putting it together, finally healthy or both. Robinson is quick, I really like that kid. He looks like the real deal. A very good back.

Yep, the headline was a good setup. It made it sound like he was on thin ice and it was just about to crack. The ground is still firm and he will likely have great season. But who is going to read that article?

Depth chart schmeptchart. It doesn't matter with the Saints RBs. Each guy fills a role and will get his carries.

Cruize · 08-12-2014, 12:03 PM

PT is a great role player and insurance policy if Ingram or Robinson goes down. But, Ingram and Robinson should get 80-85 percent of the snaps.

I'd guess by the end of he season, PT still has more touches and yards than Ingram or Robinson.
