I'm trying to pay attention to what he's doing during passing plays, but my ADD keeps getting in the way. I don't think he's going to disappoint us at all. ![]()
And now my new mantra, soon to be signature: If he stays healthy! |

It also helps that he's finally getting a few holes. It seemed like the 1st two games he was hit right after getting the handoff. I think he'll be a great one because he has a heart like Deuce, a solid committment to the weight room, and a fierce desire to help his team win any way he can. Barring serious injury, I can't see him not succeeding. |

Love his power and balance. Vision isn't there yet but once he gets fully acclimated, that should come. He has a bright future.
My Bush jersey has already been replace... with number 28. |

Here's my take: the guy's a rookie and it's a new day in the NFL. With the exception of a few teams like Minnesota, most teams are going to a model where a few quality backs will share carries. We've got three distinctly different style of runners in PT, Sproles, and Ingram. I think Ingram brings some really good qualities and will probably get to see more carries as he adjusts to the NFL game. I'm pleased by what I've seen from him so far.

And if this thread is for members seeking absolution then forgive me for ripping into Jimmy Graham in the chat room Sunday. He dropped some passes and caused that 2nd int. that Drew threw. Drew threw. Try saying that 3 times fast. So I was all over the kid. I thought that since Harper gets so much hate, Graham should be called out. Guy came back strong though. Good stuff, young man. |

Do you think that girl in Ron's avatar knew her nipples were showing when she wore that shirt? I was watching something the other day on TV and they said that girls do know and do it on purpose. What do you think? |
