Re: What was ingrams problem?
Idk. Ingram was doing well. I think he had a better ypc average then Hightower too. He was doing all the dirty work and Hightower was getting the scores. That said, I hope he's pissed because he wants to stay in and he's competitive and not that he wants TDs.

Re: What was ingrams problem?
Here's a read on it. He spoke to the media and sounded more team oriented then Cooks did a couple weeks ago.

Re: What was ingrams problem?
"I'm real competitive in everything I do," Ingram said of the sideline fit. "I got to be smarter, I got to control my emotions better, but we had a great win as a team and that's our No. 1 goal. And that's what I'm happy for, that we're bringing a win back to New Orleans."
I can't blame if he wants to score. |

Re: What was ingrams problem?
Of course he wants to score. The previous play he had just converted a tough 3rd and 1 play, then he gets taken out.
Unlike Brandin Cooks, Ingram didn't go straight to the media and whine with "closed mouths don't get fed" comments, he directed every question back to how proud of the victory he is. This isn't selfishness on Ingram's part, he could have handled it much better but I'm not mad that he's passionate. He even hugged Hightower after the TD, the players love his competitiveness. |

Re: What was ingrams problem?
IMO the main reason Ingram was pulled is he simple doesn't hold up well. Ingram is a tough as they come, but historically if he hits 20 plus carries he breaks down quick.

But if you get pulled time and time again as a player there will be a point you lose it. as you said it was not timed right at all. could Cooks crying have anything to do with? added fuel to the fire? neither was right but I look at this as a bigger issue than a game issue. MI does not have a history of this so I am giving him a bit of a pass here. The past two weeks of player drama is not wanted. |

Re: What was ingrams problem?
This is the type of behaviour that winning tends to cover up.

Re: What was ingrams problem?
Don't think it's a big deal I probably would have been mad too. Hightower had already scored and Ingram did a lot of the work that kept giving us first downs. He should have had a chance could have got his message across in a better way but we all have lost it from time to time.
