The guy is years overdue for retirement.

The offense immediately got better when Latavius Murray replaced him for one game.

This team just continues to find new ways to lose, as if they needed any help doing that already.

Not defending his spineless out of bounds run at all here, but he was more effective than AK. Just saying.

Yeah that's been the case for a while to be honest. Just a non existent running game and refusal to use Taysom where he excels.

Watching Ingram run out of bounds make me want to vomit, he even takes a step and angles out of bounds at the last minute.

Any practice squad RB gets that first down. You see players all the time for other teams not only make that play, but then slide down instead of going out of bounds. Just dumb.

Taysome only works when we are overtly dominant in the run game or the offense is clicking. He isn't "The offense" he's a nice compliment to what the offense does He doesn't fool anybody anymore everyone and their mother knows what's going on when he's in the game. Think ywe going run with Taysom every play to SB ?

Taysom has been a more effective RB than both of them. By a long shot.

Positives ...

Olave & Shaheed continue to make plays offensively.

I'd like to see more of Rashid on offense in 2023. He's electric & his vision on punt returns is very good.

Chris O's route running skills are damn near elite.

I’m not so sure if we draft a good young QB and keep our young talent in place and unload some of the dead weight we have via trade that we would not be able to contend for a playoff spot next year. If Brady retires who scares you on our division. Basically there is no better time to blow it up and start fresh.

Mark Ingram suffered a slight tear in his MCL vs Bucs.

Unfortunate.

MI likely out for the season with a MCL tear
