My take is he simply hasn't been good enough to get on the field. I think he's had a few nagging injuries as well all last season and this first week as well.
Sproles is obviously a stud. Pierre Thomas is pretty solid too.
When Ingram gets reps, he simply hasn't done anything at all to warrant getting more carries.
I didn't like The trade/pick from the beginning but obviously didn't think he would perform as bad as he has so far.

Paying him for nothing?
just a guess, but the guy had one fo the lowest YPC in the league last year
he got like 8 carries a game tho.
tough to judge him on that
True, should he have gotten more carries from the other 2 guys?

why keep giving it to him if he's averaging 3.3? i mean it seems like a legit 3.3, not a barry sanders im evertually going to bust a 70 yarder 3.3

That I agree with. The reason never a need to draft him.

last year Ingram was hurt but in week 1 the saints ran the ball 10 times total with ingram getting 6 of those carries. hard to judge anything off of that

I don't fret too much over that one. Our D wasn't good enough to go the distance.
Last year is the year that kills me. The way we lost to San Francisco, late after 5 turnovers, ugh.
If we win, we get NYG in the dome, where we were 9-0,average win by 22.
Ah well.

he was worse than bad last week, i grant you that. However, we should give him a few games at least right?
I mean he was barely worse than the almighty Vick

i'd tend to agree. However, who knows after 1 week. Maybe Philly has the best D in the league this year?? who knows yet.
although, if I HAD to bet, im betting weeden's ceiling is "average"
