Re: New Orleans Saints offseason: all eyes on Mark Ingram
Last season Ingram lined up for 268 offensive snaps. Of those he rushed the ball 156 times. That's 58% of the time he came off the bench, he rushed the ball. That's the highest percentage in the NFL (of the 59 half backs with over 200 carries). Other than Ingram, only Stevan Ridley of the Patriots was over 50%.
Rush/Snap % 1 Mark Ingram 58.2% 2 Stevan Ridley 51.8% 3 Jammal Charles 47.9% 4 Bernard Pierce 47.6% 5 Shonn Green 47.3% The league average was 34% for that same set of backs. More than any other back in the NFL, if Mark Ingram was in, the play was likely to be a run. And with those kinds of percentages, it's logical to assume that defenses were told to play the run whenever number 28 was on the field. |
