Zone Scheme is blocking, nothing to do with the RBs.

Ingram ran behind a zone blocking scheme at Bama, no?

Payton drafted Ingram - traded up, in fact - then changed to zone blocking.

I'm sure Ingram has at least something to do with it...

We switched to zone blocking after Kromer left and Ingalls became the o-line coach, two seasons after Ingram became a Saint.

So no, it has nothing to do with the RB that had the second most carries which was 50% of the RB with the most carries. That would be like changing the passing game for Kenny Stills.

Zone blocking is about making a hole to run through, it has nothing to do with the RB running through the hole.

Ingram has nothing to go with the zone blocking scheme, a hole is a hole.
