I like the power game and it's working, it don't need to be tweeked or fixed in any way shape or form. Sproles can be used as a decoy or situational back, but don't change anything!!
Thats not exactly a fair statement. Our offensive game plan changes with out Sproles, and the O-Line is preforming a lot better...

But to make sure I understand you, you want to take the most productive all purpose back in the NFL off of the field?

From back field to 2-3 yards past the line of scrimmage is O-Line, after that its vision, and ability to break tackles... Ingram could barely get past the line of scrimmage.

AGAIN - Sproles has nothing to do with Ingram, PT, or Ivory... His role is being covered by Cadet.

I'm not saying completly, but you have to admit the power game has opened everything up, take that away and we know what happens. The way we're winning and the running backs running the way their running, I would not change a thing!!

No. Our "power game" has only come to fruition because our o-line is preventing defenders from tackling our RBs in the back field.

For clarity... Sproles being on the sideline does not effect Ingram running what so ever.

NOW..... If you want to tell me that Vitt being back has allowed Aaron Kromer to focus on the line and get their game play to improve to the level of play they were at last season, I will gladly buy that.
