Re: Mark Ingram 2015 Highlights

And only 26.

I know I'm in the minority here but I have been a big fan of Mark ever since he was selected by the Saints. Works hard, studies & prepares. A much improved player with plenty to prove (especially his ability to catch out of the backfield).

Mr. Ingram has become a multi dimensional back.

Lynch mob ... flame away .

I'll be honest, I wasn't huge on Mark Ingram his first two years but since he has been given the reigns as the leading back he has turned into an outstanding player.

He can do it all, catch, block, run outside with speed or inside with toughness, he hits the hole which he didnt do well to begin with and I really hope he can string together some healthier seasons as that is the only thing which has prevented him from reaching 1000 rushing yards.

At 26 he is the running back we can depend on for many years.

Re: Mark Ingram 2015 Highlights

Ingram has come a long way...

It really started when he trimmed down and put in a solid off-season, which just happen to coincide with him getting his #22 back. I am pulling for the guy, hope he stays healthy. If he can stay healthy we need to ride him all season, enough of the RBBC stuff because we have a workhorse that needs to get into rhythm.

If Mark can't stay healthy I know Hightower will perform. I have no faith in Spiller, he should have been cut. Lasco will be interesting to watch, if he can turn heads in the pre-season he'll get his chance to replace Spiller as the scat-back.

Re: Mark Ingram 2015 Highlights

There isn't much difference between 2015 Ingram and his first several seasons in the league other than he he isn't surrounded by 3 defenders 3 yards behind the LOS anymore.

Some of ya'll act like the light bulb just turned on for him.

Re: Mark Ingram 2015 Highlights

Light bulb coming on... not really, but him developing and having better training camps, absolutely. Like I said, he has come a long way.

"I'm the same guy, I'm the same athlete but I'm just healthier now," said Ingram. "I'm more confident in the offense and what I have to do. I've grown so much in my first two years in the league and I think that two years of experience will help me a lot this year and throughout my career to keep getting better as a player and I'm healthy so that has a lot to do with it. I'm feeling good, feeling strong, running fast, toned up a little bit and I'm feeling good. I just want to have a big season and help my team win games."

Re: Mark Ingram 2015 Highlights

I was hoping we could get him but hindsight I would probably never want a RB in the 1st round ever again. It's the one position that is flooded with good talent every single year. Glad we have him but it was a steep price.

Re: Mark Ingram 2015 Highlights

The key is his age, running backs don't have a long shelf life. He works within our system which can be difficult and complex. Also I don't think you can question his integrity.

I'm a fan of production, now that he has been doing that I'm a fan. Produce this year and I'm a happy camper.

Re: Mark Ingram 2015 Highlights

Ingram and Hightower make a pretty good combo. If the front line looks good our entire O should be great. I look for Thomas to have a huge rookie season. We got fire power on the O.
