Re: Saints RB Alvin Kamara on having Mark Ingram back: 'He's itching to get out there'

The only person happier about the return of Mark Ingram than Alvin Kamara might be Mark Ingram himself.

Kamara has been talking about Ingram's return since the moment he got off the field after the Saints beat New York on Sunday, and he's ready to resume the 1-2 punch that steamrolled its way through the NFL last season.

After four weeks of carrying the load alone, Kamara has his running mate back.

"I'm happy to have him back, he's ready to be back," Kamara said. "I've been talking to him since he's been gone, and he's itching to get out there."

Ingram has only been gone for four weeks, but for Kamara, it felt like an eternity. Kamara developed a special relationship with Ingram during his rookie season, and the first four weeks of this season felt strange.

Everything's back to normal now.

"Nothing changed," Kamara said. "He sat down in the meeting room on Thursday, and it was back to a regular schedule."

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

I am amazed at how well Kamara has handled the extra snaps. He’s Kamara and all but Payton was asking him to do a lot. I think Ingram is going to be mean and hungry. I feel sorry for whoever has to try and stop him on his first play. I think we are lucky to have 3 wins and a healthy Kamara without Ingram.
I really don’t want him returning kicks. I don’t care if we have to stick a rock back there to call fair catch

I just hope that he is game ready and doesn't tweak something like Snead did coming back from suspension last year. I know that he has trained hard but game shape is a totally different animal.

I’m worried about the same. Especially if he goes balls out with a chip on his shoulder.
Kamara couldn’t handle that workload all year.
