True, however claiming he was faking his injury was not needed, nor liked.

As enticing it is to watch Ingram and Sproles 1-2 punch, I'd rather see P.T. more.

OH I think PT is the #1 Running Back. Ingram is good, but he hasn't done anything to take that Job from Thomas.

I almost don't count Sproles. He's the wildcard.

Only 2 votes for Ingram.
Obviously Payton disagrees

Whats wrong with your keyboard?

If there was one, I'd say PT. Not just because he is such a tough runner and always seems to get yards after contact, but running him more sets up the screen, and I'm still convinced he's the best screen running back in the NFL.

Second I'd take Ingram. Guy is a rookie and one heckuva runner inside the tackles.

Third would be Sproles. Love the guy, but think he's best suited when he's changing the pace.

In reality though, all three are good runners and I would like to see them all get more touches... that is if our OL stops being weak sauce. Our interior line is overrated this season.

Not according to Canton...they are the best in the business..not opening holes on 3rd and one proves your point..Ivory and Brees made em look good last year..

Canton couldn't find it with both hands a map unless someone gave him some statistics about where it was located.

Defensive coordinators facing the Saints should always have the problem of solving our backfield, let alone Drew and his arsenal. If we should

focus

on a particular back, well......(insert a Miami Dolphins joke here____________________)

Am I the only one who doesn't think Ivory was all that and a bag of potato chips? Fourth best back on our roster IMO.
