Khiry Robinson has to make the team, he's just gotta

TheOak · 08-30-2013, 08:37 AM

For what preseason stats are worth:

Khiry Robinson: Of ALL RBs in the NFL
Total Yards #1 st
YPS #33rd
First Downs #1
Fumbles #1 tied with Cadet and 1 more than Ingram
Attempts / Game #5

Saints #1 Rusher and #4 Receiver

It's very hard to complain about stats like that and even harder to overlook being a fan or a coach. The guy looks good. I hope he is kept even if it would be at the expense of others. The best man should get the job, draft status or not. Need an example look no farther than PT23.

If he is cut he is not getting on the practise squad.
The likes of the Jets,Steelers,Cardinals and any other teams with RB issues will nab him. He has far more upside than any RB on the roster,as others have said unlike Ingram he seems to be able to come into the team for a coupleof plays and produce without the need for extended carries.Its like having Ivory there on a regular basis,bring him on for the breakout big play.Ivory set the tone in that game against the Falcons last season.

I lost respect for Ingram last night. After he got stuffed behind the line, in his disgust, he tossed the ball in the air, showing-up the oline and the team. I'm glad coach left him in with the 4th teamers.

Yea that was BS.. I was waiting for a flag on that one... people ask why we are frustrated with Ingram? Well ask him why he is frustrated with him self.

After what I have seen of Ingram for the last 2 years, and Robinson this preseason and from what I know of all of our backs...

If we are 3rd and 2 against the Falcons next Sunday the ball either goes to PT or Robinson.. Anything else will have me being an unhappy camper.

I am an Alabama fan and loved him in college.............here, not so much. I am beginning to think that he's a bit of a punk. I prefer my athletes to be more humble.

I've defended Ingram and I still believe if you give him the ball 20-25 times a game, he will be very productive. But, it seems if the hole isn't there, he really struggles at creating and finding some yardage. Robinson can play in the NFL. However, on the Saints roster, he's going to have to find a way to play on special teams.

Y'all are kidding me right ? The same Ingram that had a 30 yarder on a 3rd and 1 against the texans starting defense ? The same one that nearly broke it for a TD on a screen in the same game ? The same Ingram that ran over two poor Miami defenders for TD ... Kids a stud were just too soft offensively to get much out of him ... Robinson is legit but Ingram I can't let go especially When we basically refuse to give him touches and expect Adrian Peterson to somehow emerge ... There's no way I'm giving him up after we let Reggie go too .

I'd like to see Ingram play for the niners and see if he's the same bust as over here , I highly doubt it
