Why Ingram is the Answer

Ingram is a bust in our system. He cannot get any yards after contact. As stated if the Red Sea parts in front of him then he will get a few yards until someone acually touches him.PT and Sproles can get yards when there arent any to get and actually break tackles. In a different offense where he would get the bulk of the carries maybe he could hit his stride but it aint happeing here.
Hopefully he still has some trade value. I would take a 7th round pick for him at this point.

In our system, we would make Barry Sanders look like a bust. We don't even try to run the ball. When we do start running (and yes we can) we abruptly stop. Again, no runningback will ever look "good" in a Sean Payton offense. I think Pierre Thomas is a marquee NFL running back, but he simply does not have the yards or carries to back that up. Then again, we just don't run the ball - like we don't even try.
