Also, Ingram. Ingram didn't do well today and justified a top RB would have given Brees more relief.

We don't have a big RB to help in these games, we choose to throw to Fleener when Thomas is open. I just can't.

Seriously check your stats. How could Ingram help Brees when he carried the ball 7 times?

He gained 37 yards from 7 carries, once again with a 5.3 ypc which leads the league.

Ingram has zero blame in this game, Payton was the one who chose to only run the ball 12 times total.

I don't know. I was ticked at Ingram from the second play of the game.

2nd and 7. Drew dumped off to him in the flat. Ingram catches it, runs six and a half yards and stepped outta bounds to avoid taking the hit, from a frickin DB, short of the first down. Total wuss move. He shoulda put a shoulder down, hammered Glover and picked up that extra yard for a first down. I don't blame the whole game on him but that play did seem to typify the offensive fire for the rest of the game.

And yes he did have 5.3 yards per carry but 22 of those yards came on one play. The other six carries, he only managed 15 yards. He also caught 5 passes for only 16 yards.

The whole offensive unit didn't seem to have any fight in them till the 4th quarter. Linemen getting pushed around like they were on roller skates, receivers that weren't getting separation, running backs going down on the first contact... And the Lions aren't some defensive juggernaut. For the season, they're a below average defense any way you measure it. Giving up a 4.2 yards per carry and allowing over a 100 passer rating. The offense certainly didn't seem motivated.
