I don't know I loved George Rodgers back in the day. I actually Liked Ricky Williams . There just wasn't any way he could live up to the expectations Ditka made for him. I didn't mind Reggie Bush . We have had a couple that weren't bad

Steelers need a RB, for those that watched the Monday night game.

Hindsight is 20/20, if Saints had not traded away that 1st round pick to acquire MI, Goodell could of very easily taken away first round picks instead of the 2nd round picks he stole from the Saints

Put him in if PT, Robinson, or Sproles goes down. At this point I would rather see us give his snaps to Robinson, at least there may be an upside with him. With Ingram we already know what we have.

Trade him to Detroit, then he can skip one whole move in his life.

Might not be a bad idea ... Bush already went down in Week 2 with a knee injury, and if his time in New Orleans is any indication, that'll be the status quo. Already got Joique Bell, I'm sure they could find a place for Ingram, .

Too bad they couldn't of worked something out for Robert Porcher (D/L) prior to him leaving ... the Lions could feed the Saints defensive lineman and the Saints could continue sending running backs Detroit's way, it's a win-win, .

After reading all the opinions & observations on Ingram and from what I've seen of the lad, you got to use him or lose him ... he's obviously not happy in running-back-by-committee so either give him the carries and let him succeed/fail or send him to Indy/Detroit/Pittsburgh etc... where he'll get the carries and succeed/fail.

Just give him the rock (anywhere) and let him sink or swim ... if he swims, he gets a nice contract, if he sinks, he gets discarded to the NFL junkpile. It's a cruel world, .

Re: Ingram- What do we do with him?

In all seriousness ... No team can draft 2 Heisman winning running backs where both turn out to busts and the team should be given a free pass to not even consider it might not be a problem with the backs but scheme , blocking etc ... Very different running styles , very different Offensive Line blocking for both in College. The odds of Bush and Ingram being so radically different both being busts are slim to none. It's on us , we're doing something very wrong which is why Sean Payton has been forcing Ingram so much so. He's evaluated so much film in that off year it's probably not even funny. He doesn't want to make the same mistake twice. Different things made them great , but they both had something in common around the same time they were being called busts ... The Saints


We can do the adult thing and admit our O Line couldn't clear enough ground for an ant to squeak through or we can make the same childish 4 year old finger pointing mistake as usual.


Fact , any and everytime Ingram , Sproles , Thomas , Robinson , Ivory , Bell , Bush , Collins , Cadet , get's a decent blocking line , They Shine ...

For 2 weeks I have watched this line get massacred and barely squeak by. Even on Drew's highlight throws he's a millisecond from being sacked. ( Umneyoira on the Colston throw ) This cannot continue , I haven't seen Brees hit that hard and often in a very long time !
