He's not gonna get the touches Brian got but yeaREALLY????
Didn't know he weighed that muchhes already 220
edit; nevermind i see youre talking about Denard
. He is 6'2 tho so maybe that's why he looks slim To me. He also didn't have much success between the tackles this year + he gets taken out on the reg when they're on the goalline. 7-10 lbs wouldn't hurt if he can maintain his speed..
I don't think Ingram is a bust or underwhelming. He just doesn't and won't get the touches in that offense with Breesus.

I don't see Yeldon as an every down back.. he strikes me as the perfect complement to a feature back type guy, but I don't trust him to carry 20x/game. I'm just going off the eye test - I don't see a dominant RB when I watch him. I see one who is good at a lot of things, but not great enough at anything that I will let him carry my offense week in and week out
STAN JONES
Fire John Harbaugh
Westbrook was explosive as fukk brehHe's not gonna get the touches Brian got but yea
thats a bad comparison
i would compare Darren Sproles to Westbrook not Ingram
IMO Ingram reminds me of Emmitt Smith
hes not as good and doesnt have the hall of fame line Emmitt had but their size,talent,and running style are similar
I was goin more on versatility. This year is evidence that Ingram can run, catch, pass block and be successful at all of them. Traits that Brian excelled at also. I feel you on him not being as explosive though. I never got to watch emmitt Save for that Cardinal year and highlights. I didn't start watching NFL till 03/04
It's fact, but I would extend that to most players from the SEC

Ingram is not great nor is he bad he's a good solid RB. There's some games that he's won for us, than theres some game that he jut didn't show up.
The most disappointing game Ive seen from Ingram was last season when were in the playoff hunt and we played the Falcons. Falcons had a horrible run defense and everything was laid out for Ingram to carry us into the playoffs and he laid an egg that game. There was also a playoff game against Seattle where the game was very tight and Ingram fumbling the ball was the deciding factor of the game.
The best game Ingram has played was SNF against the Cowgirls a few years back

Maybe a few years back you could have said that but in recent years some of the best players have come from the SEC. OBJ, Aj Green, Julio Jones, Todd Gurley and a lot of the best defenses are stacked with SEC players.

Good solid RB = underwhelming for a 1st round Heisman winner.
There have been many games where Pierre Thomas & Chris Ivory looked better than him.
None of them are consistent and disappear from games all to often. None of them have lived up to their college careers IMO but that tells you that Bama running game is more about the OL than the RBs. I'd be hesitant to draft any RB out of Bama.
Those guys were gonna be good with or without the SEC, so yall don't get credit for that
Look at Monte Ball,Melvin Gordon i mean making it in the league aint easy.
