If he's on IR, he can't run the ball.

Ivory can't be trusted to stay healthy.

He still has not lived up to the hype.
This has to be the year for him or the "didn't live up to expectations talk" will solidify.

Ever since we traded up to get him in the 1st round he hasn't disappointed me.
wait....

Trip... I hope you're right, because Ingram's increased "production" will benefit everyone who frequents this board.
But I just don't get how people keep saying he is "pointing to a big year," when nothing on tape shows this guy is better than PT, Sproles or even Cadet.
Sorry, but I choose to believe PT and Sproles give us a better shot to win.
If Ingram was a 3rd rounder, I think he would have been shipped to NY and not Ivory.

We don't use him right. He was a great receiver out the backfield at Alabama. He doesn't fumble. And he's got more speed then one would think. Mix up the playcalling for once. Run a dive with Sproles. Run the screen with Ingram. Give him a toss play. Hell, motion him out into the slot like Sproles. Its just to keep em guessing.

Or we could just shoot him - it'd be more humane...

We said the same about Reggie, then he went down to Miami and did everything we said he couldn't. Sproles is a grown man just like everybody else. I've seen him go right up the middle plenty of times and be successful. They can't see him.

I'd like to see some direct snap plays and let him choose any seam he wants. It creates a big guessing game unlike last season.

Oh god please yes. A breakout year for Ingram would be awesome.

jeanpierre · 05-10-2013, 09:01 PM

Ingram has to step up his game - this is year 3...

No excuses about the offensive line because PT and Ivory had some success...

Ingram wasn't the best fit/pick for the Saints, but it's time for him to become a first round pick and overcome small adversities as great players do - or he's a BUST...
