I hope you are kidding, but I'm guessing you are not. There have been many backs come through the saints organization while MI has been a saint, and most outperformed him and were picked up by other teams.
Look at Ingram's career ypc...please don't tell me he is a top 5 back. He has had a decent to pretty good year this year, but he had set the bar very low from past performances. Again, it should be, and has been easy for other backs to gain good yardage in the saints pass happy offense. I'm not hating on Ingram, just speaking the truth.

It may be a troll, but he isn't wrong about Richardson, and Ingram is an average to slightly below average NFL running back, based upon career ypc average. Henry still has a chance, and I would expect him to be a solid backup type back.

It's 4.5. Better than Emmitt Smith's career average. Better than Eric Dikersons career average. Better than Thurman Thomas' career average. I can go on. Ingram is a top 10 back. With more carries he easily goes over 1000-1200 every year. He gets hate around here because of the Bama penis envy LSU fans have.

Facts just don't matter to y'all. You must be a democrat.

Facts escape you. Since 2014 Markie Mark has the 7th most yards from scrimmage of all running backs in the league. Of the top 10, only David Johnson has less touches than him. The rest of the top 10 averaged over 100 more touches than Ingram over this span. He did not set the world on fire his first few seasons in the league and he has had durability issues. However, he's been one of the most productive backs over these past 3 seasons.
actual facts

You're dumb.
Ingram has been very good over the past 2 seasons.

Lacy has been a good back that got fat and out of shape last year. I never liked Ingram because I think he is too inconsistent and doesn't give effort, but he has played much better this year. Trent Richardson was just a bust just like Jemarcus was. They got that fat paycheck and then quit. Too early to tell with Henry. He hasn't been bad, its unfair to judge him this quickly come back in 2 years and lets discuss him.

I don't know if I would go that far but he has seemed to turned his career around.

95 atts. 425 yds 4 tds. 4.5 ypc. 12 recs for 235 yds. I would say that's a pretty decent season as a #2 running back. henry is going to be the truth. if he had 200 atts he probably over 1200 yds.

Henry is far from a bust. He was drafted by a team that already has Demarco Murray and has still been killing it with the PT he has gotten
Don't think Henry is a bust either, he's just stuck behind Murray. Ingram has improved but is above average. He's just is not a great back. Lacy has fallen off and Trent is just out the league. Henry if given the carries can still be the best of the bunch.

Yeah and think about almost every LSU player whether they are average to excellent are not just playing in the NFL but starting. Everywhere I look in the NFL, LSU players. The Alabama players that do good are the Louisiana players who played for Bama like Landon Collins. He may have played at Bama but he is a Louisiana guy.

I only watched a few selective games, mostly Saints, and the rest of them can go eat a bag of unpatriotic dicks.....

You are as bad as a Bama fan who posts stuff about LF. Your kind needs to get a life. At least they all have had an opportunity at the next level to compete against the best of the best. To enjoy watching someone fail is just down right wrong on any level in life.
