if we're playing a defense with big run stuffers, i prefer getting the ball to sproles and pt in open space, but if they're playing soft to stop the pass let ingram and ivory run it down their throat. overall i like ingram's potential as an every down back the most though.

I'm not crazy about the RB by comitte aproach, I think it prevents guys from getting into a rythm, I feel we're just switching packages and personel endlessly and that it makes it easier for defences to guess what we are gonna do. PT=Screens some runs. Ingram=runs, Sproles=runs on the outsides, passes. I'm not saying its a 100% like that but its getting that way.

I am debating this myself and I am seriously leaning towards PT.

He seems to be more of an every down back than anyone we have. I think Ingram is getting carries just to get reps and work on our blocking for him. Its more of a developmental thing.

What is nice is that when have Sproles on one end of the spectrum and then there is Ingram on the opposite in... then you have PT right in the middle of there styles.

With the play of our defense in order to win games we have to score 35-50 points a game which I think really should take Ingram out of the game.

It will be interesting when Ivory is back.

the 35-50 points a game makes all the sense with the defense we have. the 35 point mark is whats needed to win the game on avg. unless its the packers then the 50 come's into affect. i agree with u eup.
