Why aren't we running the ball?

What is up with Mark Ingram? Is it just me or is he a bust?

He's a bust.... trade him for a few defensive players and a bucket of chicken, while folks still think he's worth it.

Is Ingram hurt? Really thought he was gonna do something in the NFL. He might in a different offense, but he's a guy that needs 20 carries a game to get going. He ain't gonna get that here by any stretch when we're throwing it nearly 140 times in 3 games. Not enough plays to go around and PT is still a freakin' beast carrying the ball.

I've been saying it now oh... 3 games run run run. That would help our d. now I know that's all we can't do, but damn we just have to keep our d on the sidelines as much as possible.

Because the only time we can successfully run is when the defense expects pass. When we have to run and they know it we can't do it. O-line has been shaky to say the least.
