The one and only Khiry Robinson. Great presence, decent speed, super balance.

Khiry deserves a hell of a lot more carries next season

Despite the fumble, ingram has been running well and making quick decisions at the line, he is staying another year

Sproles might be the odd man out, he doesnt make people miss anymore and doesnt look elusive as he used to be

Definitely need to increase khiry use, glad those decisions aren't mine. That's a tough one.

Re: Ingram,Robinson or Thomas

Robinson and Ingram both deserve to tote the rock next year, I'm higher on Robinson but Ingram has come on and wouldn't mind seeing more of him as long as he keeps running with authority, both are young and less mileage than PT or Sproles. PT still has a good bit left in the tank, Sproles started the season on fire but lost a lot as the season went on. I'd keep the young mules and PT and trade Sproles because if he wore down this season it's only going to get worse the next and use PT to spell out Robinson and Ingram.

There is no "lead back" in Payton's offense.

This is why we won't run the ball effectively. We need a lead back to get at least 15 carries a game. Robinson should be the guy IMO. Sproles should go though, he no longer brings that burst to the table and his return ability is non-existent. I like Thomas but he was ineffective all year and our running game looked better when he wasn't in the game. Ingram and Robinson should be the future.

Re: Ingram,Robinson or Thomas

Make sure Ingram and Robinson each get to touch the ball 15+ times a game. I love what Thomas and Sproles has done for the Saints. But, good organizations dump players before they hit the wall, not after. Their salaries can be used elsewhere. Plus, Loomis has proven he can find starter quality RB's without drafting them.

I agree, may be time to part ways with both Thomas and Sproles... Both seem to be losing a step. I think we are set with Ingram and Robinson for a few years...

Re: Ingram,Robinson or Thomas

Just remember that Sproles is a rare type of player, and not easily replaced. However, I am the first to admit he appears to have lost something, especially as the season progressed.

I would really love to see what Ingram and Robinson can do with a lead fullback. I remember a great running back from the past who was not that great in a one back set, but was lights out with a fullback leading the way. Too bad those knees didn't hold up for that young man... (Deuce)
