Still saying that, huh? Ok, wise guy... Give one reason why? Because of the school he attends? Because he doesn't run for 284 yards in every game? He doesn't run over enough players or out run entire defenses often enough?

Can you give 5 legit reasons why he will not be a good RB in the NFL, me personally I think he's better than Elliot and he's doing fine

Ingram lacks vision, which was never a problem in bama...

Well Guido, you keep doing it... I tried to have hope for you, but you'll officially be the first person on my block list. Congrats, because you earned it!

Re: Trade Mark Ingram!?!

I used the word "burst" in my game day thread vs the Chiefs as it relates to Ingram vs Hightower. MI simply doesn't "hit" the hole with authority when it's there. No shake and bake or even a spin move (see Eddie Lacey).

IMO we are slow at the RB position. When LB's crash on Mark to make a play, it's over ... he's tackled. Rarely does he break it for a substantial gain. At this level, you need a RB who can do that (AZ RB Johnson will illustrate that when we play them). Honestly, I can't remember a gain or break away over 15 yards this year.

I have 0 hate for Mark but he simply lacks the explosion/burst you need when the lanes are there.

I would like to see the game where Ingram gets the ball 32 times.

Re: Trade Mark Ingram!?!

I think he is more of the back that we had in 2009 - Ball. The hard 1-2 yard pounder to complement PT and Bush.

Trying to make him anything other than that I think isn't fair. At times I think its the line's fault but then you see Hightower with much larger gains. At this rate I can see us parting ways with him. If we can do it to Jimmy we can certainly do it to Ingram.

I think you meant Bell and I agree he will grind out the short runs, catching passes and picking up blitzes. Over the course of his career, he has protected the ball well in spite of the blunder vs KC.

Coach Payton isn't going to give it to anyone else until he has 100% confidence that Brees is well protected by the RB he puts in.

On to Seattle ...
