Mark ingram and running game

Yea the guy has had maybe 3 good games in 3 years. I don't think even a good playoff run could give the FO the confidence needed to get rid of PT, who has proven many, many times that he can run the ball AND is excellent at the screen pass. I do think it may be enough for him to keep his job though. I think they were just about ready to trade him.

They were definitely ready to trade, but understandably no one wanted him. He has a lot left to prove. Every good performance is a step in the right direction, but by no means is it vindication for him. Still have yet to see back to back good games out of him. Maybe a couple decent games in a row, but I want to see him play just like he did saturday way more often.
