this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Mark is top half of the league - borderline top 10 based on production, skills, salary etc. Not really sure why the debate on MI at this point. Maybe his initial struggles or the Alabama angle ?? Meanwhile, I'll continue ...

Mark is top half of the league - borderline top 10 based on production, skills, salary etc. Not really sure why the debate on MI at this point. Maybe his initial struggles or the Alabama angle ??
Meanwhile, I'll continue to post Happy Gifs of Mark doing his thing enroute to the end zone and helping our team win . |

Re: Interesting stats on Mark Ingram
I thought it was a good move. He dropped fairly far from where he was projected. He did struggle early on but that had more to do with play calling and turf toe. We kept sending him on dive runs and he said after drafted he is not that kind of RB but that is what we did anyway. Never understood why Payton forces players into roles like that but he is fairly consistent doing it.

Re: Interesting stats on Mark Ingram
I think I'm tougher on him cause I really expect a lot out of him. He's getting there though, I think he'll have a nice year if Payton doesn't get the fever and abandon the run game

Brees was literally ineffective that entire game, and Ingram did not help at all. The game against the giants, where was Ingram in that low scoring game? Or how about the fumbling at KC? The fumbling against Seattle? What did he do against Carolina when Brees was having a hard time? At TB week 14? All of those games were early on within reach where there was plenty of time to run the ball. Ingram attempted runs and he was terrible with them in THOSE games.
We can have our opinion of him and we get attacked for it? Why? because we're attacking the saints apparently? Ingram just hasn't done what PT and Deuce have done. We will see what he's all about week 1 at Minnesota? |

How in the hell is Ivory a better back? You've got some seriously misguided logic man. I just don't understand. |

Re: Interesting stats on Mark Ingram
I'm convinced he's either a troll, or a dumbass.
Either way he's off to Ignoreville. He's not even entertaining enough to ridicule anymore. |
