is this the make or break year for Ingram? (1 Viewer)

So originally Payton said he'd be ROY if he didn't hold him back. Last year Payton didn't get
To work with him. To this date he hasn't cone anywhere close to being worth what qr gave up top
Get him. He's been pretty average at best with a few descent flashes here and there.

Is this the final year for him to show us what he's got?

 

[Bobaganoosh]

No. Next year is.

But I firmly believe a lot of y'all will back off Ingram this year because I think he will our unquestioned lead back. He still may not be worth what we gave up to get him, but this will be his best season by far.

Ingram is simply in the wrong offense.
He'd do wonders if he consistenly got 24 touches a game.
He is lucky if he gets 10 now.

I can't fault a player for not producing when he isn't being used correctly.
The Main Problem is giving up picks to draft a player that high and not use him correctly.

i can however fault a FO for drafting a player (that high) that doesnt fit the offense at all

Why are we trading Ivory then? He produces on limited touches.

Final year? The whole reason we drafted Ingram was because P.T. and Ivory couldn't stay healthy. He'll be back.

Our FO is the problem.

I think ingram has been doing well. He outplayed pt. And ci what's the problem? Take out his short yardage carries and we have many more punts becase he is the best short yardage guy we have and his ypc will rise.. ingram is the guy right now, very solid back.

Yes, at some point you have to cut your losses and move on. Ask yourself this... would you feel the same way about Ingram if he were drafted in the 4th round instead of the 1st.

Ivory is never healthy.

Ivory is never healthy.

Mark's health record isn't much better. Find a better excuse.

Well that's just not true

Out of all our backs, he's rarely ever healthy but has some trade value.

I agree. What amazes me is that when fans say something positive about our own players who are still young and developing, people are more willing to bet against it.
