It doesn't matter why, and it doesn't matter whose fault it is. PT produces, Ingram does not produce. Therefore, the team would be best served by giving PT more playing time. That's just how I see it.

Well then you can't see the forest through the trees.

The expression is "You can't see the forest FOR the trees", and it means that one struggles to see the big picture because he is too busy looking at small individual things. Which, in fact, is exactly what YOU are doing, and also is the exact OPPOSITE of what I am doing. I want the team's running game as a whole to be better; meanwhile you want them to change everything to cater to one guy who otherwise does not seem to fit in very well.

Besides that, you've yet to offer an explanation why they should keep using Ingram despite his obvious lack of productivity in this offense.

Don't get me wrong. I am not an Ingram hater. I have been behind him from day one. But there comes a time when you have to admit that maybe it's not going to work out for him with the Saints. There's no shame in that for either side. You just get what you can and move on, and find another person who can have success within the context of the offense rather than continuing to cram square pegs into round holes.
