Well I've gone and done it!

No RB with exceptional talent is going to find that big hole for a big 20-30 yard running play with 10 carries a game. A big run comes one or two times in a game out of 15 carries at least.

OP comes out and says he left the other site because of the hostility.

It's highly unlikely the Saints end up with Fournette. But regardless of who he ends up with, he won't need X amount of carries to warm up, which is the excuse people have used for years about Ingram.

Great running backs find daylight and run to it, through it, and they don't run into the back of a lineman, from the first play to the last play. It's one thing to wear down the other team over the course of the game, but this idea of the running back needing to get into a rhythm is something I don't believe in. It's not a position of rhythm.

I can guarantee you that if the Saints had a great running back, we'd see more running plays. We have an okay RB. And yes, Payton lacks balance in his play-calling. We ran the ball a lot with Deuce, when Payton first got here, and in later years used a mix of running backs and made it work. But they let the offensive line go to crap, and the play calling went with it. Even when it's working now, he seems to abandon it.

But none of this has anything to do with what type of talent Fournette is. He'll get his carries, no matter where he goes.

Jesus ..... this place just makes me wanna cry right now. You're kidding about Mark Ingram, right?

Ingram is a perfect running back for a Sean Payton team.... I wouldn't call him a bust... Trent Richardson that's a bust....
