PFF made a "All Preseason Team". I know it's lame and doesn't mean anything...

But I thought it was noteworthy that Mark Ingram earned the starting running back.

Running Back: Mark Ingram, NO (+1.5)
As to be expected there’s not been a lot of carries for the lead backs of this league, but Ingram looked impressive enough averaging 7 yards per rush. A nice one-two effort when you think what his teammate Pierre Thomas showed in the receiving game.

They also tweeted that Mark had 6 broken tackles on 20 carries and averaged a league hight, 4.9 yards after contact, which are very impressive numbers.

Again, preseason doesn't mean anything but to me, it's another reason to be optimistic about the season. (cautiously optimistic though, we're Saints fans after all)


Cam Jordan also made the PFF starters team

Edge Rushers: Cameron Jordan, NO (+6.5) and Tamba Hali, KC (+6.7)
With the Saints looking more like a 4-3 team right now, Jordan is spending more time at end and isn’t looking any worse for it with a splendid effort in preseason so far.

Not as surprising as Ingram, but still nice to see.
