We have very viable options with Kihry and Cadet.

He needs a wake up call, that proverbial slap that sends someone from hysteria to clear thought. He needs to focus.

I think so, this guy has done it every level and he can do it at the NFL level. Take advantage of having the plethora of running backs the Saints do & keep handing him the rock until he comes out of his funk ... or his contract runs out.

... Bell is doing AWESOME in Detroit! Sent Kevin Smith packing, took over Mikel Leshoure's spot in the RB hierarchy and handled all the RB duties after Reggie Bush went down vs ARI. Yeah, he's doing great! ... but with all the backfield talent NO had at the time (and still does), he was the odd man out, .

I coveted Ingram in that draft, and wanted to see the Lions draft him so he could play close to home (and they needed a running game). Whatever Loomis saw in him to trade up for, is still there, they just gotta' apply some of that famous New Orleans voodoo & bring it out. Oh yeah, he's blowing it out his arse right now, but deep down, there's an RB in there somewhere ... the kid's got the pedigree, .

... one or the other, in hopes he straightens up & flies right in order to increase his trade value or his value to the team ... he was a first round draft pick, you gotta' get something outta' him.

Final thought: He's gonna' go somewhere else & be successful ... just a hunch, .

Our most viable option is Pierre Thomas. Why is he riding the bench when he is head and shoulders the best RB on the team? He came in yesterday and made some positive plays then got pulled in favor of Ingram again. How is it possible that Payton doesn't see this?
