Please; PT had a rush average of 4.8 ypc today... It's just the O-Line getting comfortable with the zone blocking scheme

But Ingram cant run it because the Oline sucks.

Re: The O Line

How many times does it have to be repeated? Ingram comes in and Atl were stacking the line of scrimmage, no threat of a screen. Pierre Thomas comes in and they can't stack the line for fear of the screen.

You start feeding Ingram some screen passes and teams will stop stacking the line looking 100% run...

I do believe this is true, but PT and Sproles can take a screen pass to the house anytime. If we're going to run a screen pass you almost have to have one of those 2 on the field.

Mike Bell made this same dynamic work. so did Ivory, so did Deuce, etc. At some point Ingram has to start succeeding in the role he's given, whether the circumstances are perfect or not.

I loved the hell out of Ingram in college and I was ecstatic when we drafted him, but plain and simple he is not cutting it and it's making the offense less effective than they should be.
