Hard to say, but in the first half no back had success but they did in the second half is all I'm saying. Granted KRob didn't have a shot in the first half.
My opinion is just not to get too excited about some good runs at the end of the game and declare KRob the starter when we don't know if he can handle all the responsibilities that comes with it. He is young and may not know all of the playbook with the way Brees calls audibles and changes protections. It's a big jump from West Texas A&M to NFL play calling.

Who is talking about Ingram? Where did I mention Ingram in any of my posts? Why do people keep replying to me with anything to say about Ingram?

Don't think anybody is saying that. BUT, I have a very hard time believing Ingram would come up with those same kind of gains in that same situation.

That's not an Ingram bash, I'm only talking about him in terms of the depth chart. For that matter I am not as enamored with Sproles in terms of conventional running back carries, I don't think he's all that hot between the tackles.

Considering how bad our run game has been, I think it's reasonable to give the guy a shot.

... and again with Ingram. Why do people keep replying to me with any mention of Ingram, is a mystery to me.

Because Ingram is the guy he is presumbly most in competition with for playing time as the between-the-tackles runner in this offense, of course. Because he is the guy who got in the game when Ingram was hurt. Because Ingram is averaging less than 2 yards per carry and it is reasonable that the coaches might just be looking elsewhere for someone to fill that role.

I would think the reasons would be fairly obvious at this point. Don't take it personal, it's just the reality of the situation.

What the heck are you talking about? Seriously... I am not taking anything personal... I posted about Robinson, and how I did not think what Robinson did was that impressive given the circumstances. Why do you insist on bringing up Ingram?

My guess is, in your mind, I am somehow putting Robinson down because I favor Ingram, and that is why I stated I wasn't impressed with what Robinson did? Is that it?

Actually, no. I was just talking about the topic at hand.

Am I supposed to pay close attention to who I am responding to and take care not to mention certain players that may rub them the wrong way? Sorry, dude, but I have neither the time or inclination. I don't want to get pissy with you but that's just what it is.

To wit, it is practically impossible to talk about whether or not Khiry Robinson deserves playing time without also talking about his immediate competition on the depth chart. This is not a terribly difficult concept to grasp.

Khiry Robinson runs nasty.

FWIW, I did not see too many moments when he ran that he looked like he was checking anyone on our offensive lines prostate.

This is his 21 yard run, what I watched for was to see if the Cardinals defense looked gassed or gave up... E.G. Our offensive line reset the line of scrimmage within 2s of the snap (pushed it forward 2 yards). We didnt, the Cards defense is all over our backfield on this play, same as when everyone else runs. No more excuses about the line preforming better or the Cards giving up, their line beat us on this play and Khiry Robinson beat their defense. The line of scrimmage is the 45 and only DLP stood his man up, the rest of our offensive line was 3 yards behind the line of scrimmage as usual.
