Interesting theory about Ingram going forward

Sorry guys -SCREW records!!

Win the damn games. You are telling me anyone of us here would not have wanted a win voer St L with no TD by Drew?

I know ya'll think I rag on Ingram a lot, but I'm not down on him personally, I just don't think he's all that and I wish we would have kept our draft picks cause he just isn't all that good. He's got the same vision problems Reggie has and he doesn't have the power everyone thought he had. Maybe in college but this is the pros and it's showing that he's just another short, regular RB that could have been had in the second round. I said before the season started that he would not be OROY and now everyone else is seeing it too. We could have had another good OLB or even DT or OLT and what we got was no second round pick and no 1st round pick this year either. That's gonna let the Panthers and Atl. catch and maybe pass us in the talent dept., well maybe not Atl. cause they screwed up and made a dumb trade too.

I would tell you that the record is in everyone's mind, but I truly don't think anyone would alter the gameplan for the record. I also don't think they need too, he has been working at the record whether he meant to or not.

point 1: we pulled Drew vs Indy, but let him pad stats against Rams: one record was attainable, the other, probably not
point 2: In the next 3 years, we will not win a game without a Drew TD pass

and point 3: Why would anybody have Ingram as their fantasy RB????

Payton doesn't need an excuse to throw it 50 times.

Nailed it!

Other than the wildcard Sproles, none of our RB's are worth a fantasy spot. Maybe on larger rosters you can stash one because if an injury or two occurs, one of these guys will double their stats.

Just my luck that injured RB would be mine.

The Saints are intentionally losing so they get a wild card birth instead of having a bye week!!! They are going to try to tie the record in the Super Bowl! It all makes sense!!!!! Sean Payton and Drew are conspirators!!!

Don't think playoff games count towards the streak. Only regular season games.

I would like to see the Saints break all kind of records,except the bad ones,we probably still hold a few of those. Only if we are playing to win and not for individual stats, Brees could have had Marinos record already and Payton chose to sit him, I believe it was like 16 yards short not for sure though, but with that and that alone makes me feel it is about winning as a team. How many people get that close to any record and don't get the green light to go?

I don't think we will see an overzealous emphasis on throwing for TDs until he gets within 5 of the record.

I think the record or many records are on Drew's mind. The guy is a computer and he had formatted every play before he enters the field.
