When they kept asking about Mark Ingram, Steve Smith replied "Healthy Competition....any guy that backs down from a challenge like this, isn't built to play in the league."

I completely agree with his stand point and I'm ecstatic about this signing.

I missed it but did you ever notice over the years how chatty coach Payton and Steve were post game while he was with the Panthers? I don't mean just a hand shake but meaningful conversations. Mutual respect.

Awesome signing... hopefully this puts all the draft a RB talk to rest.... atleast this upcoming draft

Any chance Ingram is on the trade block?

No. That's crazy talk. It'll cost the Saints $4 million to trade him.

First ballot Hall of Fame RB .Amazing recovery ability .One year prove it deal. What's not to like! I roll the dice on this deal every time. Now let's go get Revis. On the same kind of deal.

I was just about to "like" this up until you said Revis.

He's done. Curtains.

Like most never liked Smith at the Panthers,onced he moved to the Ravens no issues. Always respected him and wish the Saints had a few players with that fire

Great signing, but can he rush the quarterback?

Here is the interview with Steve Smith, to say how much I despised him as a player, I pretty much agreed with everything he says in this interview.
