Khiry Robinson runs nasty

SaintsBro · 09-25-2013, 02:00 PM

Why are people assuming the Cardinals defense was tired or gassed at the end? Up 'til then we had only one drive all day that was double-digit plays, everything else was actually pretty quick strikes or our famous three and outs.

Ive no clue... The assumption is that the 3rd ranked rushing defense got too tired to play and gave up.

So can we assume Robinson is that much better a RB than both PT and Sproles and should be starting immediately?

Should we continue to assume that Mark Ingram is a better back than PT and Sproles and should continue to start when he is consistently out performed by EVERY running back on our roster?

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.
