Consider the final four games of last season a taste of what Mark Ingram wants to serve as a weekly entrée for the New Orleans Saints.

Against Carolina, Tampa Bay, Philadelphia and Seattle – the latter two, road playoff games – Ingram fell into the best groove of his Saints career, when he ran for 249 yards and a touchdown on 44 carries, 5.7 yards per carry.

Subtract the regular-season finale against the Buccaneers, a 42-17 victory in which he ran three times for 20 yards, and the numbers are even more impressive – 229 yards and a score on 41 carries, an average of 14 carries for 76 yards per game, in games that were decided by four, two and eight points.

That’s the momentum Ingram carried into the offseason, and it’s the momentum he hopes to carry into the 2014 regular season.

“I just want to continue where I left off,” he said. “I was able to get some touches, get into a rhythm toward the end of the year, so I just want to keep going.”
