Mark Ingram's Woes

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I alluded to the Saints letting opposing defenses know what we are doing in another thread. We have done nothing creative this year.. Defenses are not sitting back anymore against the Manning's, Brees's, and Brady's, they are coming after them. ...

That is because Payton isn't calling plays this year.

Which tells me the coaches are cruising and afraid to do what they know how to do. They are choosing the safe route.. "what they have done before", only the roadrunner doesn't fall for those tricks more than once.

We do not have to worry about losing our coaches to other teams... Other teams know they are too scared to use the creativity that they have.

At this point we should be going outside of the box... Fake punt on first down, Wide Receivers as corner backs.. no one is catching the ball on either side anyway, Shanle as full back, 3-4 or 2-5 defense... Mix it up.. Our problem is predictability.

Re: Mark Ingram's Woes

I honestly root for the kid every-time he's on the field because we spent a 1st round pick on him and he's good.

That said, I think the Saints have no business drafting running backs in the 1st round. In fact, going forward, they need to ONLY draft d-line and and DB's. Only think on offense the Saints need to draft for the next 4 years are o-linemen.

Loomis is so good at finding hidden talent, half our runningbacks are trades, undrafted/underrated players or late round picks.

With Payton you could exspect the unexspected every game. That element of surprise is gone. Have to get out of this comfort zone. Onsides kick to start this week, I would have no problem with that at all. A fake field goal, something other than just going through the motions. I would not even run Ingram up the middle.
