He's a competitor, and doesn't like being removed from the game, for Any reason.

So, yeah, I'm sure he was a little disappointed that he was taken out of the game, but there was really no point at all for him to stay in. Heck, I thought he should not have gotten back on the field to start the second half.

I could care less about records. At the end of the day the only thing that matters is getting to the SB. Besides, with the rule changes the stats are seriously flawed. Sit as many starters as you can if given the opportunity and live to fight another day. Ingram didn't have to jump over a couple of players to gain more yards. Now he's hurt. There is way too much footaball left to play. Maybe he'll be fine but I hope the Saints from here on out get into an auto pilot mode if the game is well at hand.

FLuke stupid crap happens all the time & Drew knows that.

DO you really think that if Drew had wanted to break that record they woud not have left him in...?

Drew agreed to come out, no question.
