Great guy, great player and teammate, but meh....not the end of the world.

Diz,

Re watch the 2018 playoff game vs the Philly Feagles. Mark had a 38 yard gain in the 4th quarter to set up the game's final points on a FG.

We don't beat Philly without Mark. It's no mystery I'm a bigger Ingram fan than most but "disappeared" in the playoffs is a bit of a stretch.

No doubt he did have that big gain, but the entire game including that gain he had 53 yards total.

So he had a grand total of 15 yards from 8 carries the rest of the game.

Then look at the rest of the playoff games;

2017 Panthers - 9 Carries - 22 yards
2017 Vikings - 10 Carries - 25 yards
2018 Philly as above
2018 LAR - 9 Carries for 31 yards

Like I said, loved him as a teammate for the guys - but didn't really do much when it really counted.

I think Armstead said it best .. "It’s really tough for people on the outside to understand Mark’s value. He brings energy to any room he steps in! Plays with fire that’s contagious to all of us!".

He's a Raven now so I guess you'll just have to find another place to complain about in 2019.

Back on topic, I see Latavius Murray playing big along side AK in 2019.

Please re-read my initial statement, it was an honest opinion and credited Ingram as a person and player. In no way a complaint, I just said Meh not the end of the world.

I gotcha.

I've moved on to Murray Diz. Mark is a Raven now.

I stay out of the rear view mirror.

These boards have debated, argued, and fought about Ingram's efficiency for years. Maybe we wish him the best of luck in Baltimore and in a gentlemanly fashion we move on as well?

Should be more than enough talent and intrigue on our roster to keep us debating each other for the 2019 season.
