Nothing more than lead all our backs with 4.9 yards per carry last year... Thomas was 3.7 for comparison

And as great as Ingram was late in the season, he was garbage and/or injured until about week 10 or 11.

No offense to Ingram fans, I still don't fully trust the guy. I'd like to see him carry the load for more than a 5 game stretch before annointing him as the lead back. Don't get me wrong, I think the "starting" job is his to lose going into next season, but keeping PT around as an insurance policy is a smart, smart move.

I understand the move. I hope he's real cheap. But, I personally would have liked to see an Ingram/Robinson combo. Having Thomas back most likely means the horrible rotation of one play per back will continue.

I still have visions of Ingram fumble during the Seahawks playoff game. Trust?

I also remember him owning the Eagles in the playoff game prior... 18 for 97 - 5.4 YPC - 1 TD

Let's celebrate PT.

Plenty of time and opportunity throughout the season to debate Ingram.

Welcome back Pierre Thomas!

I like the idea of having PT back, but I want to know how this affects the cap. It may be set up to save cap space.

Why is it people continue to bring up Ingram's fumble but neglect to mention Lance Moore's muff that led to 7 points, Sproles' muff that led to 3 points and Sproles' fumble?
