It's not going to go down like that. AP has spent his career lining up in the 'I' and having the ball handed to him 20+ times a game. That is not the Saints' offense.

His primary role? Decoy. He'll get the ball just enough to draw the defense to the LOS. He'll get the ball sometime on 1st and 10. Sometime on 3rd and 2.

Ingram has developed himself into a 3 down back in the Saints' offense. He can run efficiently, catch the ball in the flat, and pickup the blitz.

AP doesn't have as effective a skillset. And the Saints are not going to change their offensive philosophy to accommodate what AP does best.

So don't go thinking that suddenly the Saints will become LSU. It's not going down that way.
