I mean, yeah statistically you are correct but Ingram was in a backfield that consisted of himself, Chris Ivory, Pierre Thomas and Darren Sproles for 2-3 years.
Granted it took a few years for him to gain confidence and get comfortable, but the 1k rushing thing was also due to Payton's system and a crowded backfield.
Got a good feeling about Marcus, when healthy he was the best "physical" athlete on our D line.
