GB run defense top 3 last year, as well as scoring defense?I look for a similar opener to last year, when they beat Minny 14-9. Both offenses are elite but both defenses should be borderline elite (for the NFC) this year as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doug B 6,582 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Is he going to get many receptions?Probably not, but there is a glimmer of hope. That glimmer is that (a) Lance Moore is out tonight, and (b) Sean Payton discovers early in tonight's game that passes to Ingram exploit an area that the Packers defense is leaving open. That second factor is what I'd call a film exploit, and Payton is fairly well known for bending over backwards to execute plays that are not on film (e.g. fullback Mike Karney scoring 3 TDs on previously un-run plays against Dallas in Nov 2006).Ingram did run a few (like 2 or 3) designed pass routes (not dump-offs) in the third preseason game, and was targeted once. It was intriguing that Ingram got to run some actual pass routes -- in the first two preseason games, it was strictly dump-offs....With short-route specialist Moore out, though, the more likely beneficiary is second TE Dave Thomas. Jimmy Graham, Pierre Thomas, and Darren Sproles could be in line for a few extra targets, as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fightingillini 712 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 going with beanie over ingram this week, but not happy about it...Not sure why that's a problem. Beanie has a great matchup against CAR's suspect defense. I would start him easily over Ingram this week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PahtyTom 0 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Ingram > Beanie this week, season, career Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OnTheReg 79 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Could Ingram end up with a better week then Beanie? Sure, but given what we know, which is that Beanie will be THE bell cow against a poor Carolina D, and that Payton has alluded to a timeshare (at least early on), plus GB is great preventing rushing TDs, I think Beanie is the logical choice of the two. For this week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheCommish 81 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I'm rolling with Ingram this week, and hoping that he can at least get a rushing TD. If he can grab a few passes and get 60+ total yards as well, then it would be a successful start for him. I suspect New Orleans didn't spend a first round pick on him to split carries.

T with T 61 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 15 carries = 85 yds + 1 TD4 rec = 35 ydsthat would be awesome if he did that. ... 21 points in fantasy vs a tough GB defense. I could see 2 tds the way NO gets in the redzone. Ingram might be one of the best redzone runners in the league, from the 20 in. He has the fastest burst from 0-10 yards also. Im looking forward to the game tonight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Britt comes out ahead on default, Ingram comes out slightly ahead on Bloom's - but Bloom rates them both pretty low. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Football Jones 1,461 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 (edited) Patience Ingram owners. This kid was the most impressive player in camp (both rookies & veterans) according to several players. The coaches were raving, too, but I actually put more emphasis on the player's opinion in this instance. This will be a process. Most everybody knew that. Ingram will get more & more touches until he's their feature back (sometime this season). I expect Ingram to be a top-10 RB in 2012 & the sky is the limit after that. He truly has HOF ability, IMO.
